Uh, SWAT teams are already making drug raids. That is what happened recently in Atlanta where they did a no knock warrant and flash banged an infant in his crib.

If anything we need to remove SWAT teams from existence as well as no knock warrants for any charge short of murder.

I completely agree. I had heard of the incident you mentioned but it's not the first time that near exact situation has happened and I didn't realize it was just this year.

My comment was mainly referring to large organized crime or violent gangs that would warrant a SWAT team. I've seen SWAT called in for college students because an undercover smelled marijuana. Who were they trying to help? The students that wanted marijuana? Didn't we learn our lessons about prohibition 90 years ago?
