When I say "not all", I mean there are many that already remember, it is part of them because they are actually serving a calling. I was referring to the LEOs who think they have been put in charge of all they see, and the few who think they are above the law when they get the badge.warnmar10 wrote:Yes, all.twomillenium wrote:...

Re: Breath Taking No Knock Atrocity
This incident should not be treated as a mere accident and all those who had a hand in it should be prosecuted to the full capacity that the law allows. LEO's (not all) need to remember that they are not in charge but are servants who are given authority only when necessitated, all other times they are civilian servants who chose to take the job and if they can't function in the servant capacity they need to loose the job. There are not many things worse than people who will commit perjury to cover up their actions and actions of fellow employees who have abused the rights of another. Thankfully, most LEO's do not fall in this category.

Re: Breath Taking No Knock Atrocity
It seems that in less than two years some folks can get 30 years of experience. Maybe they tend to confuse what they read with what they experience.nightmare69 wrote:If you ever had to stand fast outside a known drug dealer's home not knowing what you may face going in them your perception on no knocks may changed. It's real easy to give your opinion while in the comfort of your home office.
The reason LE uses no knocks is because they work well with minimal casualties on both sides. The ones wanting to forbid no knocks should educate themselves by strapping on body armor, grabbing a rifle, and get into formation. You give the bad guys time to grab weapons and aim down the fatial funnel there would be more blue blood spilled.
It's tragic that innocent live are lost but the system works and it will continue to be used. Maybe a few changes could be implemented such as gathering better Intel before getting the warrant, but having to stand there and knock waiting for the person to open the door is suicide. Some of the scum we served warrants on would rather slit your throat them look at you.
I understand everyone else's opinion and I used to feel the same until I actually had to go in.
It also seems as if more of the new LEO's do not understand that the authority they have been given by the citizens is in order for them to serve the citizen not to be boss of the citizen!
