It’s as simple as small towns with little to no infrastructure being inundated with thousands of tourists. It’s a good thing they’re planning ahead. Better to have resources available ahead of time.
Agreed on the two things can be true point.
I just disagree that serving the warrant at 6am is “creating the most dangerous situation” when we have zero details about the nature of the “raid” and how they chose to serve the warrant.
If the guy usually didn’t go to work until 9 am and was...
How do you know how the warrant was served?
It could’ve been two agents, with tactical backup, knocking on his door at 6am because they knew he left for work at 6:30.
Do we know it was a full tactical team kicking his door in unannounced while everyone was asleep?
Folks acting like 6am is...
He also might not have a bullet in his head if he….wait for it….didn't shoot at cops?
If that turns out to be what happened. We still need info.
What did people say about George Floyd? “If only he didn’t resist” or “If only he hadn’t broken the law”.
Cool story. You should go back to ignoring me.
If they had served the warrant when he wasn’t home. People like you would be outraged that they smashed his doors in, tossed his house, and torched his safe(s) open.
You don’t even have the details of “the raid” yet. We don’t know it was a no...
This is just another case for the rage farmers that want to generate social media engagement and drive wedges.
If you hate the ATF you have to anoint Malinowski as a saint
If you love federal law enforcement then Malinowski has to be painted as a blood thirsty killer
But there another...
But they weren’t interested in detaining him, yet…they had a search warrant for his home. Why would they serve him a search warrant for his home while he was away from home? Makes zero sense.
People who haven’t even read the affidavit are grasping at straws. Not apologizing for ATF in anyway...
It wasn’t an arrest warrant. He hadn’t even been charged with anything yet.
It was a search warrant for his house and property. “Picking him up any number of places” wasn’t a functional option in this case.

Stand your ground, in this case, would mean sitting tight in his vehicle.
Stand your ground doesn’t mean getting out of your vehicle, in the middle of the road to confront someone. By getting out of his vehicle, he escalated the situation and put himself in harms way.
The DA won’t be that...
It appears that the only reason he was tussling with anyone is because he apparently got out of his car and engaged in a confrontation with someone younger and bigger than him. Using your gun to bail yourself out of a situation you willingly put yourself into isn’t self defense…it’s bruised ego...
The deceased may have struck Kottka. The court documents allude to as much, but again. Kottka was safely in his vehicle and got out to confront the deceased, who had gotten out of his own vehicle.
IMHO, this amounts to Kottka escalating an already bad situation and then using his gun to get...
It’s only a textbook case of self defense if one ignores the fact that Kottka got out of his vehicle, in the middle of the road, to confront the deceased.
Nothing in his motion indicates the deceased entered, or attempted to enter, Kottka’s vehicle. That should be relevant…
