FBI Didn't Knock Down a Suspect's Door Because 'It Was an Affluent Neighborhood'
Let's compare this experience to that of Amir Locke [1].To summarize: the Minneapolis PD was executing a no-knock warrant in a homicide investigation. Locke was not the target of the warrant but was sleeping on the couch. He was licensed for the firearm and it was completely legal. When startled awake, he reached for his gun (natural reaction) and the police shot and killed him.You'd think the NRA would be all over this: a legal gun owner killed in his home by police? Nope [2]. I wonder why.Let's also compare to Kyle Rittenhouse. Attorneys wanted to use the fact that one of his victims was a sex offender as a defense [3]. There are two possibilities here:1. Rittenhouse didn't know of this, in which case it's immaterial; and2. Rittenhouse knew, in which case this was a targeted killing (ie murder).No one is arguing Rittenhouse knew. The whole point here is post facto justification. This is for the court of public opinion and to give the jury something to hang their hat on with an acquittal. That's it.I bring this up because I want to highlight the different worlds people live in when it comes to law enforcement. Yet you can't bring the above up without some (predominantly white) people getting offended at the mere suggestion that the system is inherently racist.Think about that.[1]: https://abcnews.go.com/US/amir-lockes-death-prompts-ban-knoc...[2]: https://www.newsweek.com/where-nra-gun-rights-group-slammed-...[3]: https://www.kenoshanews.com/news/local/crime-and-courts/kyle...
