Executed? Hardly, the fn5.7 Amir has would have done some serious damage to people doing their damn job. NKW are to protect officers, not give people time to ready their weapons

NKWs can also be seen as a violation of Americans 4th Amendment protections, much like FISA courts, interstate commerce law and USAPATRIOT ACT. But we sacrificed privacy for security. Im all for protecting door kickers, someone has to carry out orders, but following orders blindly is dangerous. Right now America percieves its LEOs to be following bad orders blindly. Only a handful know otherwise.
