There is absolutely no reason for this kind of crash and burn entry unless a life and death felony is happening, and a crash at my door Will bring an armed response. Professional Judges and LEOs should know that.
Oh dear! Then what can we ban to keep our thin blue line safe?
The original justification arose years ago when people would flush drugs before answering the door. The home invasions during sleeping hour were thought to lessen the chance that the wicked drug fiends might "destroy evidence". All of this militarized policing arose from the war against American drug users.
Better police work. The drugs got into the house somehow. That is when the move is made. Actually i am for the practice of shooting drug dealers on sight, and the 'risk' of dealing would shut it down.
If you've watched some of the cartel videos you'll recall that there seem to be plenty of people willing to risk pretty gruesome deaths to obtain the profit from the drug trade. I don't think risk will deter the worst of them.
