I have no problem with the police pursuing the criminal but to be able to destroy the home and the owner not be compensated for the total destruction of that home is fundamentally wrong.
The article says his lawyers will appeal to the Supreme Court.
But to do this chasing frickin' shoplifter is beyond the pale. Yes, he was armed, but he was holed up in this house. The police could had waited for him to surrender and/or come out of the house.
This won't be that last we hear of this injustice.
Why Have So Many People Never Heard Of The MOVE Bombing? (click here)
Excerpt:
"After my stories last week on the 30th anniversary of the MOVE siege in West Philadelphia in 1985, in which Philadelphia police dropped a bomb on a residential neighborhood, leaving 11 dead including five children we were surprised by how many people told us they'd never heard of the bombing."(I watched this on local TV as it was developing, back in 1985.)
The article is trolling you.
Note also the relationship between the owner and the guy who was shooting out of the building.
