Too bad the cable networks didn't go. Looking forward to the vids.
 
"They could've knocked on the door and he would've answered." —the interviewee. The man gets home from a graveyard shift, gets a couple hours of sleep just to be attacked by terrorists in the U.S.
 
71 bullets fired, 71 beats of the heart, 71 beats of a drum, 71 tears, and incalculable pain. It's never easy to lose someone especially in a tragic manner. It's very good to see the local community show support for his widow and family.

Hundreds march in protest for Jose Guerena

KGUN 9
TUCSON – Hundreds gathered in Pima County Monday for a fallen Marine, but this was no typical Memorial Day ceremony.
A group called Oath Keepers organized a march and protest for Jose Guerena.
Guerena was killed by a Pima County SWAT team on May 5th. They entered his home with a search warrant, but deputies said when they went in, Guerena aimed an assault rifle at them. They fired 71 rounds and killed him.
More than a hundred people took part in the march, some of which came from as far away as Vegas. The people said they were there for a number of reasons: pay tribute to a fallen marine, support the victim’s family, and protest the tactics of the SWAT team.
Lilly Gonzalez is part of Oath Keepers and drove down from Vegas. She said, “Even if it was just one. The fact that he was murdered is the issue. He’s an American citizen. He served our country and deserved a hell of a lot better.”
For some it was the fact that he was a Marine, but for others it was that the SWAT team was even there in the first place.
Former Graham County Sheriff Richard Mack said, “It could have been done so easily, but to march a SWAT team into a home of a trained Marine is absolutely absurd and inexcusable.”
Stewart Rhodes is the founder of Oath Keepers. He said, “That doesn’t make tactical sense. If he’s really a dangerous guy, why not stop him on the street on his way home.”
And for some, justice isn’t enough. Mack said, “There is no excuse for this. No justification for this. Everyone in Arizona, especially in Pima County owes a deep and profound apology to Vanessa Guerena, her family and her sons.”
But the attorney for the SWAT team, Mike Storie said they shouldn’t hold their breath. Storie said, “I cannot fathom what apology is required at this point.”
As for policy changes he said there’s nothing wrong with sending the SWAT team in like they did. Storie said, “There is nothing wrong with policy. This policy has worked for years and it will continue to work for years. My advice would be if you hear lights and sirens going, and you hear the police pounding on your door, let them in.”
This debate is far from over. It will actually be back in court Tuesday to discuss the possibility of unsealing the search warrant that was served on the day of the shooting.

Related, Vox Day:

A retired police lieutenant said in the article that the ambush-style killing "is part of a two-year national trend....Every officer in Texas and the U.S. knows there's a guy who could pull up next to them and kill them. How do you stop that sudden assault?”

You don't. You can't. And if you think the police are worried now, just wait until a) they start being gunned down when they leave their homes in the morning and b) their families start being targeted.

There is only one way the police can stop this and it is to immediately stop the militarization, shut down the SWAT units, end the no-knock raids, and return to keeping the peace rather than swaggering around as law enforcement officers. Because what is happening is what always happens when the balance of power is tipped too far. If the rules are stacked against you, you stop playing by the rules.

Some protest, some shoot. If the police don't abandon their present path of violence and start prosecuting police killers instead of protecting them, they can expect more of the latter and less of the former.

What a surprise, the attorney for the SWAT team is a scumbag. That's beyond disingenuous to say that what happened at the Guerena house could be called reasonable knocking. We have all seen the Police video. The siren was chirped on and off like a car alarm. There was practically one knock before kicking in the door. That is not ample or reasonable time to even wake up, let alone answer the door.

And this douche-bag lawyer throws it into the face of the public, says there is nothing wrong with it, and says they will keep doing it.
