I ask just because I work for a Fortune 100 company that deals in financial products and insurance and our legal team objects to/strikes down any terminology being used that is subjective. For example we could never market a product as being the "best" or any other term that could be opinion-based. I always wondered if they were being paranoid but it made sense because using words like that aren't objective in any way. Also it is funny that these are the same people who tell a black person that the n-word is just a word and to get over it, but they want carte blanche when reacting with physical force to anything they deem inappropriate.

Sounds like poor decisions the cops behalf. And I would like to see the article where the current boyfriend acknowledges that he knew it was the cops before firing a warning shot that was answered with 32 rounds.

They were at the wrong house because of bad information. I'll say one thing, this has been a civil conversation compared to the jackassery that I usually see in these threads.

The police had better options than a late night raid. If you want to hit me back with another reply, that's cool. This one's my last. Peace.
