Im not sure if yall know this or not but a no knock warrant is not the easiest thing to get a judge to sign. they are only used when circumstances such as officer safety and the protection of evidence is at hand.
If it requires all this intel and evidence, why are so many performed on the wrong address?

how many are we talking?
you have a number that can be verified by a reliable source or are you just going by the few they publish in the news?

The way you infer the difficulty of acquiring a no knock, I'd say one is too many.

I understand the thought, but mistakes are made. LE is made up of humans and humans make mistakes. no body is perfect. But I don't believe they happen as often as you think.
But LE shouldn't be made to look like the villains. Yes mistakes happen and trust me as LE we pay for our mistakes.

not offering excuses. Just know some of the cops are good.
So are some postal workers, some state workers, some TSA workers, etc. Should we never criticize them, too?

Agreed

But that's not really accurate. In fact, on too many occasssions, it's patently false! The lack of accountability for LE when they mistakenly or negligently cause harm is one of the biggest problems civilians have with LE's and the criminal justice system in general.
Actions that would result in SEVERE punishments for citizens are routinely no-billed...and that's if the allegations even make it that far.

because you saw that in a movie doesn't make it true.
When a LE official is under investigation he/she is placed either on desk duty or sent home paid yes.
and if at the conclusion of the investigation you were found of wrong doing, the punishment is handed out.

No, because even the FBI admits that the data related to police shootings they receive from local departments is incomplete at best, and more likely intentionally inaccurate.

James Comey on Thursday said the first step to improving the relationship between the public and law enforcement is better data.
“It’s ridiculous that I can’t tell you how many people were shot by police in this country,” he said during a speech at Georgetown University addressing race relations between civilians and police in the United States.
But here is a start...

I know not all of the goings on at the police department and sheriff's office are published but people are dealt with.
but yes there is an element of politics involved and also we as LE are members of Union that grant some protection.

so we are talking less than 1% of all raids, Id say that's a pretty good number.
look I know some people will never like LE no matter what is said or done, but we do risk our lives and all we want to do it make it home to see our families at night, and maybe making the community a better place in the process.
But the ones who hate us, are the same ones begging for our help when they need it

Tired argument meant to appeal to emotions.
Your job isn't even in the top ten of most dangerous

I am sorry, but thats pure bullshite. Qualified immunity means our tax dollars pay for your mistakes. Even when you "pay" for your mistakes it involves getting a paid vacation, while some innocent citizen is in a morgue or a hospital. I will have more respect for the badge when those who wear stop hiding behind it.

when cops do nothing we bitch...when they are proactive we bitch....they can't win for nothing
