Raids

Over time, I've read far too many stories like this about a mistaken police raid gone bad. When somebody busts down your front door down without warning, often in the middle of the night, you shouldn't be put in the position of responding rationally and timidly. There's gotta be a better way because it puts alot of people, both police and citizens in high risk situations, and as Malcolm Gladwell points out in "Blink" - forces us to make split second reactions.

I've had my home alarm go off in the middle of the night more than once and let's just say I wasn't thinking clearly either time.
