A SWAT team blew a hole in my 2-year-old son

I just watched a brief youtube video on flashbang grenade training [0]. Apparently, the grenades aren't even supposed to be thrown into the room, they're only supposed to be thrown into the doorway. And that's in a military context, not even a police context.

So it's bad enough they're using military hardware, but then they're not even using it according to proper training.

Military context is often safer and more humane than police context

The Police get all the "toys" but none of the training, or self control.

Just watch any SWAT raid then compare that to a true military RAID, the Control and restraint used by the military is vastly contrasted by the Uncontrolled and Free Firing of a Police Raid.

The police are very dangerous

>arrest anyone who writes code that is vulnerable and is exploited by a malicious party and causes damages.

That is your logic.
