Sooo..... How does everyone feel about this statement???

[JD8]

TULSA - Two men kicked in the door of an east Tulsa home overnight, claiming they were police officers.

The victims told police they awoke around midnight to the suspects yelling as they made their way inside the home near 41st and 129th East Avenue.

The suspects demanded money and fired what officers are calling a warning shot into a bedroom wall. Police say they took cash and fled the scene.

No one was hurt but the victims were shaken, saying they have no idea why they would be targeted. Officers describe the area as a safe and quiet neighborhood.

Police have only a vague description of the suspects -- two males wearing dark hoodies and ski masks.

Officers encourage residents to comply with the demands of a fake officer.

Anyone with information on the break-in or the suspects is asked to call Crime Stoppers at (918) 596-COPS. Tipsters may also text TIP918 to CRIMES or email [email protected].

Would I follow that advice, Heck no. Thats just police talk. The mindset of, Just do what they want, we will catch them later.

Not in my house.

Sounds like they're just trying to limit their liability.

It's the same thing they tell all robbery victims. "Don't resist and let them take whatever they want and there is less chance you'll get hurt".

 

[cjjtulsa]

Claimed to be police officers while wearing "dark hoodies and ski masks"?!? "Comply with fake officers"? You mean the ones that are wearing dark hoodies and ski masks?

Sounds like pleny of dumbassery all around in this situation, from the perps to the cops.

If anyone kicks in my front door in the middle of the night there will be shots fired.

IF someone is unarmed / defenseless against multiple armed robbers then compliance is probably not a bad idea.

The above statement does not apply to me, so....

There is a reason GC announces himself when he comes in the door at night or anytime I'm not expecting him.

There is NO reason for any branch of law enforcement to storm my home at any time. Noone in my household has done anything wrong, no one is wanted, no one has warrants, no one is doing anything illegal, we pay our taxes, etc..etc..etc... so therefore i have all reason to be SURE that anyone breaching my home is doing so illegally and there to do harm to my family and/or myself.

If law enforcement should ever need to talk to me, send me a letter or knock on the door. I'm a nice guy : )

If you kick my door in and enter my home, I hope you worked everything out with God first.
