I haven't followed this case very closely at all. I do seem to recall always hearing about it being a "no knock" warrant though.

Yet, I am completely unsurprised to now learn this:

 

 

 

 

What?  Everyone everywhere was screaming that it was a no-knock warrant.

My understanding is that it was a no-knock warrant that they served with knocking...?

Don't worry, the NYTs immediately questioned this finding saying that one witness isn't enough to make that claim.

 


 

But she was sleeping in her bed with her halo firmly in place when she was brutally executed- don’t ya know?

With the above info and the fact the AG called her shooting a tragedy makes me lean towards human shield by the boyfriend.

I remember about a year and a half ago, one of our more simplistic posters chided me for making the title of this thread "Liberal Protests"

 

I should change the word liberal, he wrote.

 

Well, now in 2020, I am starting to (slightly) agree with him.

 

I should change the title of this thread to "LIBERAL PROTESTS  RIOTS"

 

😎

I know it was a loooooooooooooong time ago but when I was a child and threw a temper tantrum I NEVER got what I wanted.  And usually when I finally gave up I had forgotten what the tantrum was all about.  I'm seeing similarities.

I just can't get behind any of this.  I don't see the reason for this particular "take down".  There are very few reasons to go through someone's door when they're sleeping that make sense to the libertarian in me.

 

If you don't see the government overreach here, you need to take a step back.  If they didn't know he had a gun, they're fools.  If they knew he had a gun and went through his door in the middle of the night when they thought he'd be sleeping, they're even bigger fools.

I am not an LEO or attorney, and do not play one on the internet.  With that caveat... apparently no-knocks are so the drug deals do not start shooting at the cops coming with a warrant. That was pretty common before no-knocks. In this case, it was a no-knock that they knocked for (do not ask me why). She was probably her sainted boyfriend's human shield, and why she is dead, and he is alive.

This is the absolute correct take.

No-knocks are an atrocity.

 

How does one distinguish them from a home invasion?  And then the police justify shooting based on an individual’s response to a perceived home invasion?

 

Also, it’s wildly short sighted to justify policy and law which, in all probability, will be unjustifiably detrimental to regular citizens, for the purpose of insulating agents of the state from harm.

Welp, how do you expect the police to try and arrest some big time drug dealer? "Hello Mister Big-time Drug Dealer. We are here to arrest you. Would you mind coming with us?"

Why don't you do a month ride along with some big city LEOs and come back and answer that question. 🙂

Easy. They call ahead to schedule an appointment.

You say that as if I haven’t.

 

Youve come down on the side of the state murdering innocents (not specific to this case).

 

If the state insulates itself, then they aren’t “protecting and serving”; they’ve put themselves ahead of their citizens.

I mean, we can debate the wisdom and constitutionality is no-knocks (and I don’t like them either) but it doesn’t matter to this case:

 

1- evidence shows they did knock and identify themselves. 
 

2- Whether or not they knocked, they were executing a just warrant legally and got shot at, so of course they’re going to shoot back. 
 

3- much of the narrative is that they bust in the door guns blazing and killer her while she slept. According to something I read (maybe upthread, and potentially incorrect, but going off that) the ag stated that they did identify themselves, and when they entered she and the boyfriend were in the hallway and the boyfriend shot at the cops.

Sure, that is exactly what I said. :wacko::rolleyes:

Assuming that the AG’a report is accurate (and I haven’t seen solid sourcing that indicates it’s not) I don’t agree with your take, though I agree that no-knocks are questionable at best.

I’m speaking to no-knock raids.

 

If this wasn’t a no-knock raid, them I’m not speaking to this.

 

However, I don’t trust the government to investigate itself, do you?

I mean, I certainly don’t trust the liberal media narrative that is the antithesis of the government investigation. We’re stuck with two options and one of them is currently burning my city down.

 

That being said, the evidence of those case has been very consistent throughout. He shot first. Once your shoot at the cops, you and those around you become downrange.

Unfortunately, there are no winners here.  Truly unfortunate.  The facts will be ignored (as will the fact a jury made this decision) and Ms Taylor’s family will have to live without her and without feeling as though they received justice.  Just awful.  No winners.  Also, Ms Taylor’s tragic death will be used by a liberal media that truly doesn’t care.   She deserved and still deserves better.

 

RIP Breonna.

What are your thoughts on the Boston Massacre?

What is your point in existing in this thread? Are you genuinely arguing that police don’t have the right to return fire when they’re lawfully performing their duties? 


Are you genuinely arguing that police only enforce just laws, that there are no laws they enforce which infringe on rights, and that if the laws they enforce do infringe on rights that they don’t do this by choice?

Completely unrelated, but -- I always thought your avatar was a menorah. The little red trophies being the candles. Anyone else see it or -- too much beer?

Nope. Not at all. I’m saying that when police serve a just warrant and get shot at it, they’re well within their rights to shoot back and if someone dies in the crossfire, it’s the fault of whoever fired the first shot. I will grant that there’s clearly ambiguity if the shooter doesn’t know it’s police, but as has been established, that’s not the case here.

In the Brionna Taylor case I still don't understand why people are so upset with the cops on the scene when the issues, IMO, are all before the raid.

No knock raids should never be allowed unless you are 100% certain the target is present and there is some feel for who else is present in home. 

The judge who signed this warrant should be held accountable if he was told this was not the scum bags residence and still allowed a no knock.

The only cop that should be in trouble is the one who was shooting all crazy inside the home, the rest is in the structure of the court that allowed the warrant.

I follow things out to their natural eventualities.

 

This is the reduced logical outcome of your position.


Yup, sure Jan.

Sometimes I follow your logic and even if I do not agree, I find it has a logical explanation. In this case? I think your take is nuts.
