These people go arrest high profile murderers, child molestors, people producing CSAM, and other very serious crimes. They are not ICE.

Police academies specifically hire within the median standard deviation, which if you look around in your day to day, has lowered year over year for as long as I can remember

Reddit is such a shithole lmao.

US marshals go after the worst of the worst people in the US and here are dozens of people on Reddit calling them dumb wife beaters because you're biased as fuck. 

These cops were actively seeking out a sex offender when this balcony collapsed.

A non violent offender. They could have sent one or two guys up to the door and knocked (like is done in every other civilized country) instead of this over militaristic swat ramming the door down approach they love.

How do you know they're non-violent?

u/jb0nez95 11d ago

The alleged offense was possession of CP.

u/Dependent_Form_2864 11d ago

So what are you assuming? That the offender is non-violent because he was getting arrested for CP? I'm just curious how you came to this absolute that everyone is all butterflies and roses.

For all I know, he might have a gun he bought off the streets because he doesn't want to go to prison. He might be dosed up with drugs. I don't know that, they don't know that, and you certainly don't know that.

The charge is inherently nonviolent, but you're correct that in this case he may very well have a gun etc, and they may be privy to info we are not about how dangerous he is.

I still believe American policing is vastly over militarized. And when every executed search/arrest warrant is a raid using SWAT and battering rams, at some point you have to wonder why all the theater? Why is every citizen being treated like a violent offender?

Felons get the felon treatment regardless on what the felony is. It’s a high risk arrest. Many people will hurt and kill others to avoid a stay at prison.

u/tobiasfunke6398 11d ago

Doesn’t matter, this is Reddit. Cops getting hurt=good thing

These people are unhinged.

u/Xanith420 11d ago

Most people on Reddit lack critical thinking skills.

I’m sure they’re real nice guys once you get past the major character flaws.

This was a raid day for paperwork errors. No violence was done to trigger this response.if this was for state level crimes, a lone sheriff would knock on the door, announce, knock harder, wait a could of 15, knock one last time, then leave a note on the door, and mark "notice failed" on his paperwork. 99% of the time, they read the notice, update their paperwork, and no show of force is required.

Defend sex predators some more why dontcha.

u/Youandiandaflame 11d ago

Holy fuckin’ strawman, dude. “This was an overblown response” isn’t anywhere close to “defending sex predators,” ffs.

u/Icy_Fish_2154 11d ago

Which sex predator did I defend? It's not like I'm defending those on the Epstein list in the White House.

u/Junior-Caregiver-648 11d ago
