To bad the homeowner only winged him. Would have saved taxpayers some money.

Guess the hatchet-throw led the homeowner to doubt these were police officers, huh?

proves not everyone who busts down your door and shouts POLICE is a good guy.

I guess the state of Indiana has a good crystal ball. http://www.northwestfirearms.com/le...ana-legalizes-right-defense-against-cops.html

This is really terrifying.

The only home-invasion I worry about is one where the invaders are pretending to be cops.

I don't want to be Jose Guerena and get hosed with 70 rounds of AR fire for defending myself. -That's a losing proposition.

But this kind of thing is what will make you hesitate at the exact moment you need to be ACTING. I have zero good answers for this. I neither wish to shoot a cop who f***ed up on the warrant address, nor to be shot by a SWAT team who got the wrong address. But this kind of incident makes me want to shoot first and ask questions later. -A response that's as problematic as hesitation.
