It was an execution. Otherwise, why make it impossible for him to verify it was the cops at the door rather than a gang of home invasion robbers?
The warrant wasn't even to arrest the man, so clearly they had no particular reason to be concerned about the man himself. Therefore, you wait till it's a decent hour (not o'dark-thirty), knock, identify yourself, and talk to him via the intercom/video system.
No, this was an execution. They wanted him to think it was a home invasion robbery so he'd shoot as they broke in, and they could justify filling him with lead, otherwise there's no explanation for covering over his door camera.
I am not a fan of these kinds of tactical entries. I never have been. Unless it's an exigent matter of life and death, they should be prohibited. It would have been very easy to have effected their goals without entering his house forcefully while he was sleeping.
Does anyone know what evidence the ATF had that he had committed a crime?
Like the cripple old vet the fibbies assassinated last Fall in Utah. 10 cars with storm troopers to search the premises of a person with no violent history whatever.

He was selling handguns to non-criminals (regular people) without an FFL. They deemed he crossed over the technical line on that, i.e., you're allowed to sell from your collection, but not allowed to function as a retailer in guns without the FFL. It appears that he was, more than likely, guilty on that charge. That certainly doesn't warrant a military style raid of his home at o-dark-thirty.
All of this crap has been going on for decades. Back during the Obuma era this website had numerous members who were full-on 'agency lovers' . Same bunch loved shtheads like lawyer/SteveNO, laf.

Posted by Bristoe The people wringing their hands over Trump's rhetoric don't know what time it is in America.
I have little trust of any LE, but the ATF is on a different level. They are they most subversive agency toward the US constitution and anyone choosing to work for them is highly suspect in my view. This guy was probably guilty of breaking some technical laws and could have easily been approached at work or one of the many gun shows he was surveilled at. The military tactics were not warranted at all.
According to the warrant, Malinowski purchased more than 150 guns between May 2021 and Feb. 27, 2024, which he then resold. The ATF claims in the affidavit that around six of the guns Malinowski sold were found after being connected to a crime.
Undercover federal agents purchased another three from Malinowski at central Arkansas gun shows, the affidavit stated.
According to the affidavit, Malinowski would purchase guns through legal means, checking off a box on the purchase form that he was buying the gun for himself. He would then resell the just-purchased guns in as little as 24 hours through gun shows where he maintained a table or through private sales.
In one case, he was reported to have told an undercover buyer that all purchases were cash only.
All the guns purchased by Malinowski were pistols, including 24 Model 45s by Glock and AR-style pistols, the affidavit stated.
It looks like they were surveilling the guy for a while so maybe something else justified how they went about this. There's a link to the warrent affidavit in the article.

Which specifies that they were not authorized to arrest him. It was just a search warrant. If they had so much on him, why didn't the warrant specify the authority to apprehend him?

Don't know, but at this point there's a lot of unknowns.

Now would be a good time for Congress to make it illegal for any agency to organize and field a SWAT team and divest the agencies of all the arms, ammunition, assault vehicles and helicopters they've bought. Make the agencies go to local law enforcement for a legal arrest of a local citizen.

So burden of proof of innocence lands solely on the accused.
So what is it they didn't want us and him to see ??
The family's attorney needs to be asking these questions.

Suggest you read the book about Ruby Ridge, the court case, testimony and the Jury finding, if your stomach can take the murder of an entire family by the Agencies of the DOJ.
It is time, past time, to take them down, dismantle, defund, and arrest the criminals hiding in their ranks. There is no adjustment, only start over from scratch, with every one of the agencies under the direct control of We The People.
