Incompetent cops in Georgia blow babies face off with flash grenade during raid

[Brixtonbulldog]

um - isn't this like a hostage situation - a baby was in there - due care should have been taken. You people talk as if the baby deserved it because it had bad "parents".

i don't think that's what we're saying at all.  it's actually pretty obvious that we aren't.  what the sam hell are you blathering about?

[thebrink]

Was the recover painful, following your brain amputation?

There should have been a flashbang thrown in your crib

Well, there wasn't.

due diligence - they should've know a baby was in there

Since I am among the "you people", allow me.

The baby did not deserve this anymore than the child deserved drug peddling parents. Due care is exercised and intel is what it is.  Sometimes right on the  money, sometimes off.  The parents should be imprisoned and punished for what they brought upon their child as well as for being dope dealers and who knows what else.  Again, it is not the fault of the officers involved or the injured child.

First responders are brave folk and deserve our  respect. Derision is best spewed upon the likes of these so-called "parents".  To say otherwise exposes a mindset best suited to those wearing prison garb.

Unnecessary use of force with the flash bangs and poor intel of occupants. Could possibly have been done differently.

Did they not know, or just not care there was a sleeping baby in the house.

shoot first and let god sort them out then?

Look kid, are you really this childish?  Do not think to treat with me as you would a subordinate mongoloid on your personal short school bus with extra dark tint all 'round.  You know only that which I choose to reveal.  You on the other hand seem to have no problem showing the world that you are a disrespectful man-child. 

Not all LEO are wonderful people, but there has never been a great pusher, pimp or mass murderer. 

Don't go there. 

Be well.

I'm not arguing about the quality of lowlife involved in this escaped - the parents ARE scum. I don't think that lets the police off the hook. Grow up.

[tommywishbone]

I hardly ever use flash grenades around babies.

Haha!

They don't deserve to be hung on a hook.  Neither you nor I nor anyone here knows what the intel was.  Did you get a sitrep on this prior to breaking down the door?  Did you put your life on the line going through that door or window?  

"Grow up"? You have a wonderful economy with words until you have to eat the ones you say without thinking because that's a buffet few will find palatable.  It happens to all of us.  Take my advice and stand down, young man.

Be well.

Whatever mistakes were made regarding intel, hopefully they learned from it and can correct it for next time.

Hey man - I've said what I've said - we don't know all the facts like you said and until we do the police shouldn't be let off the hook.

Like I said in my above post flash bangs are a tactical advantage. The ci or confidential informant probably gave them bad Intel..saying there are no kids

[Dr.J]

Fixed!

I wasn't there so take this for what it's worth, but....

I assume that a swat team would already have plenty of tactical advantage over the dipshits in that house.

[Thick Nick]

If we use Getbig as a sample of society, I cannot believe the percentage of jackasses among us who blame the cops for this, and not the parents. That is more disturbing then the actual story. If you are on the side feeling this is the cops fault... You are dumb. Hope this helps.

well written

and sums it up nicely

[Thong Maniac]

The parents put the baby's life in danger by having drugs in the home.....


They knew a raid could happen at anytime....bullets and grenades flying.....

Lol, fuck this. Drugs need to be legalized, this is just another reason why.

[visualizeperfection]

Nope.


Foolish.

[thebrink]

Nope.


Foolish.

Drugs are illegal in order to keep the public "safe"

This raid was done in the same of safety , and they ended up severely hurting a civilian in the process.

War on drugs= fail.

[Tapeworm]

So, how do we go about making drugs legal, while still keeping children safe in these homes?

Analysis projects the number of grenade related deaths to fall sharply.
