That's an absurd statement.

Amazing.

If the event was important enough to warrant breaching the structure by order of a judge, it should be understood by all to make sure one is at the right location and that the target is in fact at that same location before commencing the assault and putting LEO's and Citizens both in grave danger for nothing. These are very basic things. Breaching a structure occupied by armed and deadly combatants that may also contain innocent citizens is not a game to be taken lightly.

Having a warrant in hand should never imply that the operation should commence if unknown variables exist. If it takes extra manpower or extra time to ensure things are done right so be it. Judgment is paramount and its apparent this particular raid was doomed from the start.

The focus was entirely on the entry and not on the target, since that target wasn't even there. Innocent people injured for nothing is a failure by everyone involved from the Judge down.

I personally believe these warrants can never be justified but until "we the people" cause them to be banned forever we are stuck with them. The least we can do is make sure they are done right. Failures of this magnitude need harsh consequences.

Trying to justify the urgency and merit of a "no knock home invasion" to catch a bad guy that wasnt even home during the calamity is preposterous.

This entire operation was destined to fail from the moment the Judge signed the warrant because the "bad guy" was no longer the issue once the warrant was in hand. The issue at hand was executing the dramatic entry with all the cool toys and the main "purpose" of the warrant itself no longer existed.

Just another atrocity committed by a "multijurisdictional drug unit" which means the feds may have been involved in this "cool training event" that maimed an innocent American. Americans need to start electing Sheriffs that will not allow these things to take place. I don't see any other peaceful recourse. Fire the Sheriff and get a new one.
