		<description><![CDATA[The cops on the SWAT team are not heroes. They are people who give no thought to the rights of citizens to be free from unreasonable search and seizure.  It is most certainly unreasonable to bring a large force of armed officers to a private home where there has been no history of violence and no allegation that anyone is being hurt.  Those cops who have given thought to this and still go on these raids are both cowards and thugs.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[after getting a search warrant that said to serve in daylight hours 25 utah task force officers raided my home in Jan 2010 after dark (they like to play with their machine guns and black uniforms at night)  arrested, almost a month in jail charged with 20 federal counts and with 20 state counts.  plead no contest to 1 count federal and 1 count state.  got probation on both the fed charge and the state charge.  all this reads like a nightmare, its the machine gun mentality of all these &quot;task force clowns&quot; and it will continue to get people hurt or killed.  fact. 

recent enactment is now going to give the feds the right to hold anyone for anything as long as they want!  signed by obama last week.

watch this case develop and watch for planted evidence on this guys property.  watch it real close or he will get life.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I would like to know the details how of how he shot 5 of the SOB&#039;s.  All Americans should learn effective tactics to kill thugs that break into our homes.

Perhaps if Americans actually start fighting back against these ball-less criminal thugs they will think twice about murdering and violating the rights of American citizens.  


Better yet I like the idea of locating the homes of these thugs and doing no knock raids on their homes.  Shooting their dogs, putting guns in their kids faces, accidentally shooting them when they try to defend themselves.  IF they survive - then arrest them for treason and violation of inalienable rights.

Sounds reasonable to me as every  peaceful tactic has failed with these demons from hell. What do you think?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It seems almost everyone believes in the 4th amendment based on the comments in this blog site. This is a good start. The money &amp; power machine pays for all of our government intrusion via taxes. Unfortunately once a government intrusion machine gets funded all the people employed by the machine will fight to keep it going to feed their own kids. It&#039;s so easy to be corrupt and justify ones actions to keep a paycheck coming in. What would they do without their job ? Work at Walmart ? 14000 seat funeral ? Definitely a power &amp; money group statement. What happened scares the he&#039;ll out of power &amp; money. It is a breakdown of the illusion of power that the goverment wants the people to have. They want use to cower down on our knees to power &amp; money.  That way they can do whatever they want. The goverment is actually powerless compared to the population, and power and money knows it. 14000 seat funeral ? Show of power maybe you think ?  The machine needs to be severely cut in funding of men and weapons, funded in class room training that should be understanding thoroughly the constitution of the United States for the officers and their superiors, judges,  polititians, and especially the power &amp; money group.  These types of tragic incidents would then rarely happen.  This raid should have never been allowed, the citizens are not to be used for practice in terror.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;VOTE&quot;??

WTF for? This kind of crap has been going on since at least the demonic republican Nixon, right? Then it accelerated during the administration of the foul democrat Carter. Then it got *even worse* under the profoundly evil republicans Reagan and Bush 1. Then it got *much worse* under the satanic democrat Clinton. Evil Incarnate republican Bush 2 made it that much worse: there were rumors for the first time of human sacrifices. And now here we are under the archfiend democrat Obama......

And nothing&#039;s changed; and the rate of atrocity ramp-up continues unabated. Hell, now - again under the &#039;people&#039;s friend&#039;, Barry O, you can get hassled/tased/arrested/shot (if you do it just right) for taking their freakin&#039; **pictures**. 

What exactly do you think &quot;voting for change&quot; will do except give us a new figurehead/boogeyman to grumble about?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This Smith nazi obviously comes from the generation of violent video games and watching SWAT movies. Legalize drugs? Too much money involved to legalize drugs and a threat to big pharma&#039;s profits. The real profits go to the dealers and those pretending to protect by force. The only victim in this movie was Matthew. Smith and his drones drew first blood. Who was this man hurting when these nazis came to attack him? It is really sad and an atrocity that one nazi was shot and killed. I&#039;m sure he had a family too, but that&#039;s ok, Smith will go on with his life and his twisted mind set of Mr. Badass who is going to take down anyone who uses drugs. This demented power monger needs to do some research. 
15 to 20 thousand people die each year in this country using so called street illegal drugs while over a hundred thousand die using scripted pharma drugs.

Another dynamic to this madness of police state raids is the adrenalin rushes that these SWAT nazis get addicted too. Why the hell can&#039;t people leave people alone unless they are harming others or committing real crimes? The only crimes I see being committed are mostly those claiming they are protecting others. From what? 

They say crime does not pay, but that depends on what side of the bench you are on.

		<description><![CDATA[Apparently I&#039;m just stupid, the DEA budget request for 2012 is $2,364,104,000 and with DOJ, Border Patrol, DOD, state and local contributions to the &quot;war on drugs&quot; we&#039;re pushing $4+Billion, right?  &quot;no knock&quot; warrants are to keep &quot;pushers&quot; from flushing the evidence, right?  If I design a $500 device that severs sewer lines so that any evidence placed in a commode becomes trapped so that a simple pump can collect it for police and prosecutors, and we get a bomb squad robot to go up and knock on the door so that no armed conflict can occur, unless armed lunatics burst out of the location guns blazing, we can stop executing innocents and criminals, without benefit of trial, and save like $2+Billion a year, right?  Anybody really think this would work?  Sadly, I don&#039;t.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have a friend who was killed by a cop on her 30th birthday because she was in a car with a guy who was wanted on some minor warrant. 

A cop tried to stop him, he put the pedal to the metal, and instead of giving up the chase because it was a minor offense, the cop continued to pursue at speeds in excess of 110 mph through residential areas of urban Portland. (Ironically, my friend was deathly afraid of being in a car when the driver was exceeding the speed limit. She would ask to be let out, and would walk to where she was going, rather than ride with someone who was speeding.) 

The driver eventually failed to make a turn, her arm was ripped off at the shoulder as they sideswiped a tree, and moments later she was ejected through the front windshield. 

I&#039;m not condoning having outstanding warrants, the driver&#039;s role in the tragedy, etc. Just saying the cop chose to use lethal vehicular force over a non-violent offense, and that--although all too common--was wrong. The driver went to prison for a few years for involuntary manslaughter, but the cop was never even prosecuted. 

And it was just a minor squib buried in the newspaper. Why was there no public outrage over this young woman&#039;s death at the hands of police?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[“It’s not a legalization issue, it’s not an immigration issue, it’s a public safety issue. If someone is willing to shoot it out with police, who is self-medicating on marijuana, what’s to say he’s not willing to walk out his house and start shooting his neighbors?” Smith says.

Just another example of marijuana being so powerful as to alter the judgement of people who don&#039;t even use it.]]></description>
