This happens a lot every day even though you choose to ignore the new world order's police intimidation tactics.

Then the local community needs to take the appropriate action.

I wouldn't tolerate such a raid taking place in my hometown unless they has SERIOUS EVIDENCE of a major crime being committed that warranted such overwhelming use of force..

Of course, it helps to know the cops and make friends with them.

There is ALWAYS the potential for police abuse. Don't even permit yourself to be fooled into believing that this is something "new"..

But police need to be held accountable, in an objective manner, so that they never forget who they are ultimately serving.

We had the Randy Weaver incident here in Idaho and that's still a bit of a sore point. Never agreed with his politics, but it certainly didn't warrant putting his wife and child in harm's way.

“We are sincerely apologetic for the injuries suffered by Mr. Grevemberg,” Price said in a statement. “We are also sorry that he was left unattended” amid such revelry.
