I'd like to see all the facts before I make a meaningful comment, not just a couple of photos and comments from his family.

We now have to protect ourselves from criminals and the police in some cases. I will defend myself badge or no badge.

There is a lot of info that lead up to the killing of an innocent man.
"On Tuesday, law enforcement announced plans to charge the teen they were after—who is a juvenile and was arrested on Sunday—with two counts of second-degree murder. The charges come in connection with the Jan. 10 death of Otis Rodney Elder in Saint Paul. A petition against the suspect indicated that the apartment in which Locke was fatally shot belonged to the suspect’s brother’s girlfriend.
The petition states that cops had warrants for two other apartments at the complex—called Bolero Flats—where Locke was killed. Police said they found clothes, a duffle bag, and other evidence tied to the murder suspect in the building. Most of that evidence was recovered from units besides the one in which Locke was killed, though cops said they found a black Canada Goose jacket with fur that they believed belonged to the suspect at the apartment Locke was staying in."
My post is not to lessen the seriousness of the death of an innocent man. It is to show this event has a back story and if an individual will be charged with his death and what type of charge as well as the issue of no knock warrants.
I would not want to live in Minneapolis where the crime rate is 443 crimes per square mile. Minneapolis gets a 2 rating out of 100. 100 being the safest.
Anyway, another terrible event and they just keep coming.

SSgt Ray Stone - Please re-read my post. That was not my point.
My point was your commit on the tragedy was out of context.
To come to correct punishment for his death, the situation needs to be understood. All crimes are different. It appears, this one was not planned. Yet, the no knock warrants have had collateral damage that is wrong, sad and bad.
