Why are police doing (and more importantly the judge allowing) no-knock raids over drugs? Forgetting that the tip came from a criminal in exchange for cash, I feel like we should have learned a lesson over the last year...
Then of course the landlord is on the hook for $50,000 worth of damage, that the city/police won't have to repay, and all they found was some personal weed that they didn't even bother to take into evidence.
People could die like Breonna Taylor cause some cop saw someone going into their house with a garbage bag.

This happens frequently. Usually not noteworthy because the victims are not white, middle class families.
There needs to be significantly stronger requirements to obtain a no-knock warrant. There was literally no reason for it in this case except they were worried that any drugs might get flushed. That shouldn't be sufficient cause to endanger civilians and police officers.
