No knock warrants

[onlinebiker]

Looked it up. If you destroy (or conceal or tamper with) evidence to hide a felony crime, doing so already carries its own penalty of twenty years in prison, in addition to whatever else you’re convicted of. 

But the justification for no-knocks is only secondarily to preserve evidence. It’s primary justification is to keep bad guys from getting the drop on the cops.

That primary reason is just dumb.

If the cops knock on my door - I will answer it.

If they come busting down my door in the middle of the night - they will be answered by gunfire.....

...

And a really bad guy likely has perimeter guarding - so he already knows the cops are there - and will open fire before the cops get inside....
