re: Breonna Taylor: it was not a no knock warrant

Aren't whether he shot through the door or after it came down, and also whether or not it was a no-knock warrant both red herrings? The main issue being whether or not they announced.

That depends upon which we are addressing of the many potential questions arising from this mess.

If we are discussing ONLY the shooting, those two points are of less importance than is the case if we are discussing the advisability of ANY forcible entry in this case ... with or without knocking and with or without announcing.

The simple fact is that there was inadequate evidence to support ANY forcible entry into THIS residence. The other four addresses? Probably a different story.
