Bad Policies Applied Well

Uncle often posts on this blog about drug raids gone wrong– cops kicking in the wrong door and horribly abusing a whole bunch of innocent people. Sometimes, though, raids go off without a hitch. They find the right house, the right people are home and there are even drugs present. And looking at the times things go right tells us a lot about why these raids are so bad.

Cops in Texas kicked in the door to a woman’s home, shot her dog, and set her house on fire. All for… two joints. The police are bragging that they followed protocol after finding traces of marijuana and coke in her garbage, but as the Agitator says:

if “protocol” means forced entry, flash grenades, and killing someone’s pet all over traces of marijuana and cocaine in the garbage, I’d say it’s probably time to rethink “protocol.”

    I think its gotten to be a minor way to “make your bones? as an LEO if you shoot a dog during an arrest or raid.

    I have a friend whose dog was shot when police raided his home. They came crashing through the front and back, shot his dog and arrested him for… one pot plant.

    Good thing she didn’t have three joints; they might have executed her on the spot…

    Hey, it beats the Hell out of arresting drug gangs shooting up street corners, that’s dangerous, and bragging rights ain’t worth getting hurt over when you can brag just as much over killing Fifi, and beating up her 100 pound owner.

    Protocol is code in these instances for chickenshit.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
