I can't tell if you're being snide with that comment, but yes. That should absolutely be the first step.
and if they don't...yeah. raids might be necessary. I really get all the anti cop shit here...because our cops are absolute shit and most of them need to be just be thrown away for life. But this website acts like society would just suddenly behave if the cops went away. No more crime, no need to ever pursue people. No need to ever raid anyone's home because nobody in history has ever done anything bad enough that they need to be forced to leave their home to face prosecution.
Again...I fucking get it. I hate our police in this shithole country but the answer is not no police ever no raids ever no arrests ever. The answer is massive fucking reform of our entire god damn system starting with EXTREMELY harsh punishment's for everyone involved in shit like this article.
If someone barricades themselves in their home, why not just wait them out? Cut off power & water, couple days max.
And if they have people in there they are threatening? Ah, well. They kill them its whatever right?
Again, I'm very sorry, but yes...some times society is going to need police. we just need to fix the system because our current usage of the police is completely fucked.
This isn't tv. Cops aren't going into a hostage situation as it is right now. Cops go in guns blazing when they are confident there is little threat, if there is actual threat they take their time.
Which, again, leads back to my main point that how our police use these tactics is the issue not the tactics themselves.
I'm glad you agree with me.
