That was the sloppiest damn entry I have EVER witnessed. EVER. Keep in mind I have personally trained and gone on raids with Afghan and Iraqi forces. These pigs should be real proud of themselves. A man was shot over 60 times with his rifle pointed at the ground with the safety on. A veteran none-the-less. I didn't hear them identify themselves as police before they broke the door down.
Cowards want to play GI Joe without having to be deployed to truly dangerous war zones. Burn in hell pigs.edit on 27-5-2011 by ateuprto because: (no reason given)

This was a hit. Pure and simple.
If they wanted to arrest Jose, they could have. There are multiple ways that they could have arrested him and taken him to jail if they wanted to, but no, they murdered him.

They were there to search the home. They searched several other homes that day with no incident. He sealed his fate when he chose to meet SWAT with a gun.
Defending him just because he's a vet makes no sense. There is NO WAY he couldn't have known they were SWAT.
The wife lied when she said they didnt have sirens on.
A Marine who was fatally shot in his Arizona home earlier this month never fired upon the SWAT team that fired at him 71 times, according to reports released by police.
Jose Guerena, a 26-year-old father of two and veteran of the Iraq war, died on May 5 in his home near Tucson, Ariz., during an anti-drug police raid. Authorities initially reported that they thought Guerena fired upon them, but an investigation revealed that no shots were fired.
The SWAT team descended upon Guerena's home thinking it was one of four houses associated with a drug smuggling operation. But nothing illegal was found during a subsequent search of the residence.

Umm.. they had "A" siren on.. for 6 seconds. There were people banging on the windows on the side of their home. She saw a weapon and went to her husband who in turn got his weapon. What is so hard to understand about that?

That a man who was working his ass off to buy a new home for his wife and 2 sons, decided to go all Rambo on SWAT. That firing 70 shots at a single man by 4 officers was the ONLY way to handle this situation.

She claims to not have heard sirens. Now, a siren going off, even for about ten seconds RIGHT OUTSIDE YOUR HOME is not something you can mistake. Her story is, therefore, a lie.

Why it is people are assuming this guy is innocent because he's 'vet' is beyond me.

It is indeed easy to question the cops' actions afterword from the comfort of your own home. somehow, I suspect you would fire on a man pointing a gun at you, too.
