What are your opinions on this particular raid and on SWAT raids in general in the US?
Personally I found this to be disgusting and it's not because they killed the guy's pet but because his kid was watching as the officers fired guns and terrorized their house...
From the article:
"They found a "small amount" of marijuana, enough for a misdemeanor charge. The parents were then charged with child endangerment.
So smoking pot = "child endangerment." Storming a home with guns, then firing bullets into the family pets as a child looks on = necessary police procedures to ensure everyone's safety.
Just so we're clear."
Opinions??
Fuck the police?
