By my settings it only took us four pages to reach the trifecta....We've decided what happened at a place we weren't at, why it happened in a situation we know nearly nothing about and how it will all pan out in the future.
We're getting good, but we're pretty well experienced at it.... yeah, there are a LOT cop killings and no knock warrants gone bad to discuss, eh?

There are also a lot more cops being ambushed and killed. Cause & effect, I don't know, but the cops paying the price are not the ones doing the no knocks. They are answering complaints and doing traffic stops.
Just some food for thought.

60 OF 71 is stellar accuracy compared to most deadly force shootings. Well below 50% is more the norm. Proximity has that effect. How close were they? Dink Considering it was inside the house..... Oh, that's right, I'm sure this 26 year old working class young Marine working night shifts at a cooper mine with 2 young kids was living in a posh 40,000 square foot home where the firefight (one sided) took place across the indoor tennis court.

The point is none of us know. At a minimum there were three weapons that had to be shot. So this probaly did not happen at contact distance. Keep in mind that they were at that working class marines residence to serve a dope warrant. Not once did I read that they had the wrong residence so they were in the right place. Dink

Bad cops, bad warrants, bad guys.....
What we KNOW FOR SURE is that this is sad. Kids will grow up without a dad, which is a tragedy regardless of what the facts turn out to be.

I'm just pointing out that a little logic would dictate that the distance was, in all probability, pretty darn close. I haven't made any other assumptions in this and certainly wouldn't leap to any conclusions that they were or were not in the right place or that the intel they received in the first place, to request the warrant, was golden or garbage. Now, someone else might point out that the Sheriffs office is playing this real close to the vest, refusing to answer any questions other than recanting their original claim that the victim fired his rifle. And given Sheriff Dupnik's history of running his mouth when he doesn't have the facts (see the Gifford's shooting), someone else might point out that ol' Dupnik would very likely be shouting from the mountaintop that his boys WERE in the right place and found a ton of cocaine and that it was absolutely a righteous shoot...... Someone else might point that out...., but I'm not willing to just yet.

"They found nothing in the house that was illegal,"
"And the Pima County sheriff scolded the media for "questioning the legality" of the shooting." (that's [bleep]' DUPNIK, champion of the 2A, doncha' know)
"He was asleep in his Tucson home after working a night shift at the Asarco copper mine...." if he's workin' for Asarco Mine, his pizz tests are on record,....(like MINE, GTC).....not to many "Dealers" would be found there. IMHO.
"At first the Pima County Sheriff's Office said that Guerena fired first, but on Wednesday officials backtracked and said he had not. "The safety was on and he could not fire," according to the sheriff's statement."
You just keep on defending this sorta' behavior, it seems to be what you do best (and LOUDEST)

Seems to me, the whole police culture has changed. When I was a kid, we were taught that cops were your friend, AND THEY WERE! Recently, (over the last 15 years, or so)I see cops in a lot of military-type clothing. Seems to me that "they" have become antagonistic "Rambo-wannabe's", or in plain language - The Enemy - to regular civilians. Many ex-police that I know well agree. That said, I will await the evidence. Mark

But I will state that I think the over militarization of the police in general and the freedom of no knock warrants is wrong. They should be reserved for the most serious of cases and require much verification prior to issue IMHO. Gotta justify the budget, dont'cha know. God, I hate that I've gotten this cynical.
This is a shooting forum, there is no place here for logic.

Sure,I understand that. I'll clarify. The predisposition to believe something smells bad,at the outset and without facts in support, is troubling to me.
