That's right: Officers threw a flashbang grenade in my son's crib -- and left a hole in his chest. It gets worse
by Alecia Phonesavanh
After our house burned down in Wisconsin a few months ago, my husband and I packed our four young kids and all our belongings into a gold minivan and drove to my sister-in-law?s place, just outside of Atlanta. On the back windshield, we pasted six stick figures: a dad, a mom, three young girls, and one baby boy.
That minivan was sitting in the front driveway of my sister-in-law?s place the night a SWAT team broke in, looking for a small amount of drugs they thought my husband?s nephew had. Some of my kids? toys were in the front yard, but the officers claimed they had no way of knowing children might be present. Our whole family was sleeping in the same room, one bed for us, one for the girls, and a crib.
After the SWAT team broke down the door, they threw a flashbang grenade inside. It landed in my son?s crib.
Flashbang grenades were created for soldiers to use during battle. When they explode, the noise is so loud and the flash is so bright that anyone close by is temporarily blinded and deafened. It?s been three weeks since the flashbang exploded next to my sleeping baby, and he?s still covered in burns.

These flash bangs are lethal weapons and at least one coroner has ruled a death by flashbang was a homicide. Police in Kalifornia have been known to throw flashbang after flashbang which burned down a house with a trapped suspect inside.

Yes, I've had enough of 'anonymous' idiots inciting to murder on public web-sites . Are ALL USanians retarded or what ?Or perhaps you are posting from your government 'work'-place, providing a pretext to SWAT-raid Chris's home and burn it down ?? Yes, it's quite annoying and it goes against our comment policy. Talking about trials and appropriate punishments for the perps may be against comment policy, but self censoring is not helpful to rid our lands of these blue-line gang-bangers and the criminal trash they serve.
Do you remember how real cops behave? I have not seen a real, serve-and-protect cop for a very long time. It's all gone darkside.
Talking about trials and appropriate punishments is not against the comment policy. The policy says don't call for people to be killed. Also, it's not a legal matter, we're not liable for other people comments, the policy is a practical one as I quite simply don't want to get subpenaed. Not inciting to murder has nothing to do with 'self-censorship', it's called 'being a decent adult human being' .Just because the pigs can't behave YOU don't get the right to be just like them .
