“A Georgia SWAT team shot and killed an armed homeowner during a September 24 drug raid sparked by the word of a self-confessed meth addict and burglar who had robbed the property the previous day. No drugs were found. David Hooks, 59, becomes the 34th person to die in US domestic drug law enforcement operations so far this year.

According to WMAZ TV 13, Laurens County sheriff’s deputies with the drug task force and special response team (SWAT team) conducted a no-knock search on Hooks’ home in East Dublin on the evening of the 24th. When the raiders burst through the back door of the residence, they encountered Hooks’ carrying a shotgun. Multiple deputies opened fire, shooting [and] killing Hooks.”

“Mitchell Shook, an attorney for Hooks’s family, told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution that deputies spent 44 hours searching Hooks’s home for drugs — yet they found nothing. The attorney also told the Macon Telegraph that the shooting didn’t happen the way the police say it did.”

Did you notice that Mr. Hooks was the THIRTY FOURTH person killed by police in a drug raid this year?

They searched his home for FOURTY FOUR HOURS-after 44 hours-they found Nothing,nada,zip,zilch,zero.

Did you also notice that the cops “evidence” was the word of an admitted tweaker?

On the word of a guy who’s living in a drug induced fantasy world-You Too can be on the receiving end of a 4 am no-knock SWAT team raid in which your dog will be shot,and a flash-bang blindly tossed into your home landing in places like ummm… say the baby’s crib.

Last time I checked,we had 4th amendment protections against unreasonable search and seizure.

The word of a dope fiend is not the type of “oath or affirmation” the founding fathers meant when they wrote the Bill of Rights.

Last time I checked another thing-dogs can not swear oaths,or affirm a damn thing,other than what they are taught by their handlers-things like say “alert” for drugs on command.

The “war on drugs” is a failure-this shit needs to stop.

People who want to fry their brains by using mind-altering substances are going to do so whether it’s illegal,or legal-prohibition proved that.

Maybe people were smarter back then-they just admitted that this is not working-we are creating a whole “underclass” of criminals who are getting rich by smuggling liquor into the U.S.-we need to make alcohol legal again,and tax the shit out of it to pay for all our dumb ass government programs.

Now we have the same thing,only it’s drug cartels and gang-bangers getting rich by selling weed,cocaine,and heroin.

Now we have even more government programs-more people making $$$ from smuggling and selling drugs-and the idiot politicians can’t see the huge increase in tax $$$ ???????????????

Just stop the failed “war on drugs” legalize weed right away,decriminalize cocaine and heroin-stop sending drug users to prison-the felony conviction means they will never be able to get a decent job-this shit needs to stop-now.

Save the prison cells for violent criminals,and upper level drug dealers who deal heroin and meth-the drugs that are destroying families,causing people to rob and steal to support their drug habit,and causing our prisons to overflow.

Then the cops could stop running around in their ninja jammies at 4 am,and try to arrest the murderers,rapists,and upper level heroin and meth dealers.

That plan has to work better than the current waste of time and $$$.
