If I were a drug dealer, but am not, I'd always expect my door to be kicked in and guns blazing so I'd take precautions so that could not happen. When they tried breaking the door down it would make allot of noise thus warning me to put plan "B" into action, which would not be to engage the police but flee. I would do this because first I know what I'm doing is highly illegal, 2nd because I fear what might happen to me and because I know the police have the full authority of the law behind them. I respect them because of fear. If I were a "smart" drug dealer.

These people have absolutely no regard for the force of law, have no fear of it and are very stupid so it never occurs to them to disengage in a safe way when the police do come. No they fully intend to kill them in that event. With that being said they are animals and have thrown their rights away long ago. That 12 million would better be spent by the Salvation Army.
