Have you seen video of the incident? I haven't so "Shooting an unarmed woman 5+ times..." comes off as if you know something the rest of us aren't privy to..
I am not privy to anything not in the public domain.

I think they said he was firing off shots all over the place including some in the house next door, or apartment next door, or something like that.Apparently one officer ran off 10 indiscriminate rounds into the house.... He'll burn at the stake for that - probably. I don't know if his firearm fired any of the rounds that hit Breonna - or anyone else.
I appreciate that. I’ll endeavor to be extra super sarcastic in the future to remove anyone’s doubt. If I’m thought of as a dumbass I try to really earn it.You're correct; I had difficulty recognizing that as a sarcastic comment. My apologies sir.
Yup!
I think I heard or read somewhere that the cops there do not wear body cameras....Have you seen video of the incident? I haven't so "Shooting an unarmed woman 5+ times..." comes off as if you know something the rest of us aren't privy to. Ain't saying you're wrong. Just saying if you weren't there or haven't see the body cameras you may be assuming a bit much.
Here is one UK link indicating she was shot 8 times.
I caught the sarcasm right awayI’ll comment as I see fit. Recognizing sarcasm is obviously not your strong suit.

One story I read, said she was hit seven times, but didn't specify by whom. I'll see if I can locate the story and link it for you to read.
If she was not presenting a deadly threat to the officers, they had no justification to shoot her. I heard one account where her boyfriend was using her as a human shield.......IMO, she's not exactly as an innocent a bystander as her "protesters" would like her to be. She was, from a story I read, handling money for a drug dealer and apparently knew about the drug deals going on.
Many times, we are known by the company we keep. That doesn't mean she deserved to die, but if you hang out with such people, and there is a raid, these things can happen, and it did.
They announced who they were, were ignored, busted the door, were immediately shot at, and returned fire
Pretty much exactly what will happen if some one enters my home.
Why police execute search warrants when folks are home is one of biggest mysteries of the universe.
Just wait till they have left to go to work, an errand, etc
The crux of this whole matter to me is was this a no knock or not? Everything I saw showed it was a no knock warrant. If that's the case and they didn't knock and just broke down the door, you and I would have had guns blazing. The TV today showed the AG spokesman saying that they have a witness who said the police knocked and announced. Why would the cops do that if it were a no knock warrant? Is that standard for police to announce on a no knock warrant? Is this a bunch of BS or not? How the residents reacted to my mind depends on their state of mind, completely surprised by people breaking in and shooting or reacting to cops announcing their presence?
If I were a betting person I would bet that the cops no knocked, took a shot from the guy in the house and then went off full cock blazing away indiscriminately and then claimed that they knocked. Why, because if they knocked they could get off and if they didn't knock they were guilty of murder or whatever it is in KY. Just a bet though.
And as many of us would. If someone comes breaking through my door in the middle of the night, I'm going to assume it's a bad person, not the cops. But I don't associate with gang bangers, thugs, criminals or drug dealers so there is no reason for me to even think it would be the cops breaking into my home.
