If they have the wrong address, break in your door, do not identify themselves, and you shoot...guess what? $1 to a donut that you're going to jail.
Nah, you'd being going to the morgue, or a hospital if you're very lucky. They're already primed & ready for a fight, and they outnumber you.
I'm not a lawyer, nor am I well versed in the laws, so I ask this question:
If the victim ended up in the hospital, is there a law in place that protects the officer or the officer's employer from liability should the victim sue? Same question if the person ended up dead and the victim's family was suing.
Dunno. I'm feeling realistic (or cynical for all you fairyland people ;-)), so I'm gonna say yes. I'm actually more worried about surviving, but being charged with capital murder if I killed 1+ of them before it was over.

Re: Cop is lucky he didn't get shot

Wow, they're both lucky they didn't get shot.

Cops raiding the wrong address and shooting me when I try to defend myself because I didn't hear them say they were cops (or didn't believe them) is probably my biggest gun-related fear at the moment.
