"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
SWAT Team Leaves Innocent Man’s Home in Ruins then Sticks Him With the Tab
"What happens when an armed fugitive randomly chooses your home as a hideout from police? Colorado homeowner Leo Lech can tell you the answer from personal experience:
'There was one gunman with a handgun and they chose to turn this house into something that resembles Osama bin Laden’s compound.' His description is apt, if not an understatement. Cavernous holes have taken the place of windows, leaving insulation and once-private rooms exposed to the world. No room was left untouched by police, as a nine-year-old boy’s drawings pinned to the wall are now clearly visible from the street in front. Buckled siding and demolished support beams frame gaping holes where walls once stood."
