i'm pretty sure your drug friendly countries have these "SWAT" style teams as well.

Horrible and tragic.

Not sure why the War On Drugs(tm) was dragged into this.

Why not blame religion?

A terrible accident. Sound like a possible accidental discharge. I know , hard to "accidentally" discharge a firearm but I seriously doubt this l;little girl was shot on purpose. The parent s are to blame for harboring an suspected murderer and putting their daughter in harms way.

Religion is actually at the root of the drug war, as it is the religious conservatives that drive the misguided conservative movement towards prohibition...but stopping these military style raids against families is going to take attacking the problem at the crisis point; where the gun barrel meets the 7-year-old.

Not possible. Countries that have legal drugs never have problems because everyone is happy.

While it is a horrible thing to occur, I kinda agree with Rider. Even the article states the gun was fired during a physical altercation with a person in the room and the officer, not an intentional shot at the child.

It is extremely sad that a little girl was killed, but don't harbour a fugitive and things like that wouldn't happen.. ( for the most part) Sadly she was innocent.

But wait, hold on.

Say a friend of yours does a bad thing. A REALLY bad thing. And, you don't have any idea that this BAD thing happend. What happens when they come over to your house, stop by randomly because they don't want to get home and wait to get busted for that REALLY bad thing.

You've put your daughter to sleep on the couch because you don't have any clue that this [now] fugitive is at your house.

Would you accept being told "don't harbor a fugitive and things like that won't happen" after your daughter is killed?
