But not being in federal law enforcement I haven't a clue as to what the official policy is. I'll bet even most criminal lawyers don't know.

You might note that we both offered roughly the same alternatives none of which the BATF chose. Instead, they chose a path that ultimately led to the incineration of innocents.

Now I may not know what the official policy is. But I'll just bet it doesn't involve infant barbecue.

The discussion was not about whether proper procedures were followed. But, you're free to go off on one of your tangents.........yet again.

I suggested that they had a warrant and a procedure to take the man into custody. Clearly, neither you, nor I, know what it is.

But, feel free to quarterback it after that fact................it would be nice if you knew the playbook first.
