Infowars reporter Jakari Jackson, along with a few of his neighbors, received a rude awakening today when an aggressive SWAT team showed up to perform an early morning ambush.
Jackson was startled out of his slumber around 5:30am when he heard someone banging on a door loudly. He immediately armed himself and walked to the front door of his Southeast Austin apartment to see what was the matter.
He soon heard a loudspeaker boom that the Austin Police was there to serve a warrant, and could see what looked like an Austin SWAT van parked outside.
He could also hear loud bangs which he believes were likely flash bang grenades.
Ever the intrepid journalist, Jackson grabbed a camera and attempted to film the raid, which happened to target one of his close neighbors.
When Jackson opened his door and began filming the storm troopers, who were outfitted in green ensembles more befitting of U.S. military than police officers, he was met by ferocious barking demanding he get back inside his house.
As evidenced in his footage, Jackson was already standing well within his doorway, which he declared, stating, "I am inside! This is my door; I'm standing right inside my apartment!"

I am going to start using statist excuses in my daily life. "Citizen safety" will become part of my repertoire. "Based on my training and experience" will also be a key factor. Just think of the difference we could make if we all became a Citizen Peace Patrol armed with handguns and cameras streaming to Youtube and researched citizen arrest laws... Every time we observed police officers violate the law we could film them and effect a citizen's arrest. Oh, probably wise to keep some cash at home for bail money, but if enough of us did this it would make a difference. Did they come down from parachute? when is it ever appropriate or necessary for police on american soil to wear masks hiding their faces?
if there's an answer i honestly would like to know, i can't think of a valid reason for them to hide who they are - what are they afraid of?
why are cops SO AFRAID anyway? they have all the guns and bulletproof vests and helmets - the best our money can buy, and they always outnumber everyone by a large margin? why are they such chickenshits?
