What do you mean "how does he have a platform"? He owns a conservative news outlet. Quite literally owns. He has a platform because he built the platform, and enough people disagree with your opinion that he's made himself a millionaire in doing so.

What a strange question.

Ben Shapiro is incredibly quick and intelligent. I disagree with him on many points, on others I agree, as with most people. But questioning how he has a platform says you probably should do a quick google search of him.



By definition a no-knock warrant allows police to enter without seeking permission or identifying themselves. Hence the "No-knock" in the description of the warrant.

There's a TON of people (myself included) who have massive issue with the use of no-knock warrants in any but the most extreme cases. But yeah, it's literally in the name of the warrant, and does not vary by jurisdiction that I can tell.

I literally mean his voice is too annoying to listen to.

Ah, my bad. Yeah, that's fair. I just make sure to turn the volume down enough that it's less piercing.

And regarding Taylor's apartment being a "soft target"... That classification and the resulting decision quite literally cost her her life and nearly cost an officer's life as well.

As I said, very poor decision on behalf of police in how they carried out the warrant.

If they would have immediately rammed the door, and entered, they actually might have saved Breonnas life considering it may have not given Walker time to get a gun ready and positioned.

Correct. It's honestly a case for negligence leading to death against the police, so I'm kind of surprised the media hasn't run with it.

On the flipside, the media is incredibly against no-knock warrants in the first place, so I think they feel they can't address the one issue because of the other, but I'd say 2 things can be true at once. And no matter how distasteful they may find a no-knock warrant, they're typically used specifically because it's the safest way to handle the scenario, and least likely to lead to excessive force. As long as they're going to be continued to be issue, they should be acted on in good faith, which this one clearly was not.

Meh. Suffice it to say, I agree with you. But I don't think anything is going to come from that angle of it.
