It would of course have to be done with some planning (in the case of the subject police department that could be asking too much). For instance, it could even be done with the car stopped and the suspect out of the car.



It could, but you have to remember most SO's don't have the resources or the training to do this. Most Police departments have a lot more resources and man power to do things like that and they tend to have better officers.

This case looks awful. It looks like you have poorly trained officers executing a warrant on iffy information that led to the death of a man.

After reading her story I would have reacted the same exact way the homeowner did and I believe most Southern men would to.

We may also have information that completely changes this story, but right now it looks like a awful miscarriage of justice.

Having two officers that are properly trained would be more valuable than having the 8 jackasses in the department that executed this raid.

I agree that many have a funding issue, but most seem to find the money for lots of toys/military equipment. A department in my area has a .50 caliber machine gun.

Probably a good idea not to engage in risky behavior if the training isn't sufficient.
