I’m reading that article, and I’ve think the hope would be they were shooting flash bangs or tear gas. Regular bullets would penetrate multiple walls and exit the other side of the house. The couldn’t have been that dumb.

It seems the city really needs to do some fix up on this situation fast. It could happen to anyone. What happens if she was armed and defending her house when they popped in? ..." I guess we know the answer to that question now. Radley, here’s an even more chilling comment:

I earnestly pray that that twit's own house be demolished, and then we can simply say "Sorry, bad things happen to lots of people," and that he should just "get over it."

Jarrod Shivers’ life." is absolutely correct. While I feel for this cops family, he'd still be around if he had done his job and not rushed to apprehend a guy growing trees in his garage.

Chesapeake aims to quickly fix home damaged by police http://hamptonroads.com/node/441931 As is seemingly normal opinions are inflamed from polar opposites, with barely a few seeking the middle ground that must exist. Though from the article, this case seems pretty crazy! Supposedly surveillanced the house for days? Used computer stuff and the ever present CI! It was the computer stuff that tied the suspect to the house, because she had requested some protection or such her address got associated with his name. Totally sucks to be just a citizen.

Bad things happen to lots of people. If you want more protocols against the police tell the liberals, so we can start getting all the officers killed here at home similar to Iraq." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ WHAT?! ".......get over it''! And I guess YOU would "get over it" and THANK the police if your home was in shambles after a "mistake." And what do liberals (or conservatives) have to do with this? It's not about being a liberal or a conservative....It's about doing the right thing or the wrong thing......and this was just wrong! “I am sorry the house is in shambles, but get over it.

Because, you know, the police will give careful consideration to both sides, right? Right? I like how we’re being encouraged to wait till we hear both sides of the story.

The commenter writes "learn how to spell and use proper grammar." However, in the very next sentence, the commenter improperly ends his sentence with a preposition: "The police were doing their job like they are supposed to [do]." Sigh. This is hilarious.
