WTF? A steroids raid? Is it really necessary to call out the drug taskforce swat team to take a guy down for selling steroids to other muscleheads? And why is the local chief of police, two weeks before retirement, taking part in executing search warrants on low level thugs? What if the guy is home napping on the couch and someone comes busting in? He may be used to fending off roid-rage assholes so blows away the intruder, only to find it's a cop. They fire on him so he caps 4 more of the fat cops. Not hard to do, obviously. We'll never know what happened since the guy selling steroids by the gram and his girlfriend are now dead along with the chief.
Why didn't they just wait til he left and pull him over or nab him in public? The "kick the door in" mentality that cops have simply provokes these type of shootouts. These cops are so accustomed to serving search warrants and entering and searching homes that they weren't even prepared for resistance. Entering a home by force should be the last resort. The strategy of surprise home invasions and searches failed in Iraq and Afghanistan and is why the locals hate the presence of US troops. It fueled the insurgents with hatred. It will fail here too. The question is how many will die needlessly in similar situations before they realize this?

This guy died last night, 8 days before retiring. BTW, how does a 48 year old retire with a full pension? No wonder they system is broke.
