Ok, go ahead and flame me for using the term "gestapo;" it won't be the first time.

Okay, I'll flame you for it.

All you need to do is read your German history.

Tell me a single Gestapo raid where the government allowed a photographer to shoot the scene and escape with his film intact.

Or where they left the members of the family behind to go cry to the media.

Or where the family were told where the person was after he was seized.

There were many legitimate issues about the raid, but to call it a gestapo raid is to distort history and minimize the horror of the true gestapo raids.
