i think the real problem is the US police. You dont storm a home just because somebody on the telefon told you some bs.

No, that is a terrible criticism. What if I'm in trouble and I'm requesting assitance? That makes no sense.

And what if I call a firetruck? Should the firefighters send someone to check beforehand?

What if I claim a heartattack in my bedroom. Should the paramedics check my medical records first? Or knock on the door politely? Or see if the neighbor has a key?

The services provided by the state and government are there for our benefit. If you abuse it, you pay for it...you don't "lose it". That's a level of moral understanding supported by childrens fairy tales.

firefighter and paramedics dont storm your home guns blazing.  i dont have a problem with paramedics breaking a door  because somebody could having a heart attack .  the worst thing that can happen is a broken door or window.

i dont wanna have the police raid my home without first checking whats going on, even if im a hostage , especialy when im a hostage.

So if there is a murderer in your house, you'd prefer if the cops called really quickly just to make sure there is a murder there.

its wasnt normal to storm a house without checking anything 10 years ago and it worked, outside the US ist still not normal that a swat team storms homes without checking.
