Homeowner kills Deputy in No-Knock

[JETFAST]

Exercise proper judgement, and you go home. Like a copper thief. He goes out while everyone sleeps, to steal copper, knowing damn well he can get fried or shot. Like an dumb ass kid walking in the middle of the street texting on his phone. They know the consequences for their actions, yet they feel self worth and entitlement, and do it any way. Lack of common fucking sense is what gets people killed. cop~or not, common sense isn't very common these days.

Really piss poor judgement on the part of the police department. Also, just one more reason why the drug war needs to end and pot be made perfectly legal.

Pot is only one facet of the drug war.

I'm going to pull the triger till it goes click,click,click.... cop or not. Kickdo a mf'er on suspicion, get killed for suspicion. same~same.

You must have a revolver bro Most guns (but not all) won't allow you to pull the trigger more than once without having to racking the slide. Nothing annoys me more than when I see that shit happening in a movie.

You knew it was only a matter of time before cops started getting shot on no knock warrants. I know Matt was a big fan of them, but you would think most officers would want very little to do with a no knock warrant. I don't condone shooting a cop, but I can certainly see how a homeowner is going to defend his property. I can't really get behind any reasons for a no knock unless a crime is in progress, like kidnapping, rape, etc.

Frankly I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often.

Amen brother!

I like the action! Plus it saves me from having to pick up all those pesky shell's that fly all over the place!

Having the plants also automatically nullifies the legality of the guns. An acquaintance of mine in DFW was caught with pot and he was also charged with illegal possession of firearms (felony) for his "legal" 10-22 and g19 and ended up getting federal time.

Yeah, drugs and guns = fucked. Doesn't matter if the guns are on the up and up or not.

hmm, never really thought about that. I have a few friends with CHL's who need to consider that the weed in the glove box can get them in some really hot water.

Yeah, they found those "illegal" guns they were looking for all because he had plants.

Seriously! Not sure on the quantity of tweed jackets, but I think it has to be felony amount as well.

Hopefully they are smart enough to know not to carry both at the same time. If not, they deserve whatever comes their way.

Tell us how you really feel.

You're a cop, right? Seems you need to know Texas penal code...


Sec. 46.04. UNLAWFUL POSSESSION OF FIREARM. (a) A person who has been convicted of a felony commits an offense if he possesses a firearm:

(1) after conviction and before the fifth anniversary of the person's release from confinement following conviction of the felony or the person's release from supervision under community supervision, parole, or mandatory supervision, whichever date is later; or

(2) after the period described by Subdivision (1), at any location other than the premises at which the person lives.

I am so sorry to hear this. I do hope the officer's family will be looked after by the PD that sent him on the errand and that a lesson is learned that no knock warrants are very dangerous to everyone involved.

You know damn well cops forget all that bullshit as soon as boot camp is over. The first item on the docket is to taze and apprehend all minorities, white trash, africans (people from Africa) and last but not least, ALL Muslim's. Beatings are given out on a per person basis and the cops with the most DWI arrests get the best shifts...

Just seems to me a person hired to enforce the law ought to know the laws they are enforcing. Apparently he does not. Which doesn't surprise me, given his track record of posts on here.
