    Uhh... maybe someone should inform these pigs that they're breaking and entering under color of authority... this guy should sue the f* out of them. I don't care what they say, not answering the door is no justification to walk in the house at 3 a.m., it's an invitation to go away. And, of course you know that the cops are going to say it was justified (just like a crook says "I didn't do it")--they're likely to be in the process of getting their collective ass sued off. These clowns seem to think they're above the law. Can I do that when no one answers a door, then just say "I was worried something might be wrong." Gee, big surprise, no one answered the door at 3 in the morning.

    A cop's job is not to proactively protect me from myself, that's just a power trip.

      I might add, in many homes, including mine, a cop in my bedroom better have his gun out when he starts pounding on the wall to wake me up, because he's likely to be greeted by a 9mm pistol stuffed in his nuts.

    Agreed...My motto is:

    If you are found here at night you will be found here in the morning (by the coroner...)

    Those cops are asking to get killed walking up into peoples homes like that. Not smart...
