NO SWAT TEAMS ENTERING PRIVATE HOMES
Editor:
Dear Editor of the Baltimore Chronicle, When reading "The Empire
Turns Its Guns on the Citizenry" ( Jan. 24, 2007 ), I'm reminded of the
Nazi swastika, and the resemblance makes me associate SWAT with the
newly-coined term SWATSTIKA.
America must stop using SWAT military-style power for the war on
drugs. SWAT has a history: using Gestapo tactics and entering private
homes to conduct drug war warrants, including too many raids at wrong
addresses, with too many innocent citizens killed in as little as 11
seconds. Police are to serve and protect; SWAT is primed to kill.
SWATSTIKA; If the shoe fits and police doesn't like it, they should
change shoes.
