I recently heard this story in the news of an old lady who used a shotgun to attempt to defend herself when her home was broken into forcibly. The old lady was in her 90's.
Guess what? It was the police. Police had obtained a legal 'no-knock' warrant, and broke down the door without warning. The old lady then opened fire with her gun, wounding three of the intruders before being murdered herself.
The 'no-knock' search warrant was issued because it was suspected there was drug activity in the house.
What do you newpol folks have to say about 'no-knock' search warrants, the drug war, and or this story in general?
