Who hasn't bitched about cops? I'm generally supportive of good cops and have many LEO family and friends. If a cop abuses the power? Yeah, I'll call a spade a spade.
This no-knock crap has to stop. There's zero reason to do it for anyone without a record of violence. Probably this situation could have been handled with a discussion. I know in my case, if there were ever a reason to issue a warrant just f-ing call or knock on the door. Easy as that. Busting through the door in the middle of the night is going involve huge, pissed off dogs which will initiate a total C-F for all. The III% guy in this case? Probably could have been handled politely or worst case pick him up when he's out and about.
