Funny how when it comes to the fascist state being justified in its police state actions then both R's and D's can surmise "there's more to the story"(i.e. a conspiracy theory which lays the blame on the victim(s)) but when citizens use the same thinking on the state then statists decry "conspiracy theories" as a demented way of thinking. Research SWAT actions "SWAT team deployments began to take off in the 1980s. Balko cited criminologist Peter Kraska, from Eastern Kentucky University. Kraska computed that a few hundred raids occurred annually in the late 1970s. The number grew in the early 1980s to 3,000 annual SWAT deployments. By 2005—the most recent data available—Kraska said the number is 50,000 raids per year, according to Balko. - See more at: govtslaves.info; I've seen other studies that put the number of raids far far higher.
