So its ok that she was shot and killed then, I get it now.
Play deadly games (involved in illegal drug ring), win deadly prizes. Had she not been an involved member of the illegal drug ring under investigation, no search warrant would have been issued for her home and none of this would have ever happened. She'd still be alive.

Drug laws should have been abolished when civil rights were enacted.
I live on the Indiana side of the metro. My former neighbor to my front was a high level meth dealer. Big enough FBI arrested him. He received suspicious packages all the time. He often carried guns in and out. And yet he was apprehended without a no knock warrant. He was arrested elsewhere and then the house was investigated. No one put in danger. Again, for someone far higher up the drug hierarchy than Taylor's ex and far worse a person than Taylor herself.
If a Breona Taylor situation had occurred with a night time raid those bullets would've been flying back at my bedroom.

Ok, thank you Justice RStevens62. Maybe you should write to Trump and ask that he put your name in for consideration of Ginsburg's seat.
Drug laws themselves are unconstitutional...this is not just an opinion, its fact, the Constitution does not permit the Govt to enact or enforce laws on 'drugs'.
Why are you more worried about the criminal that the victims? Drugs ruin people and towns and the dealers should be dealt with the most severe punishment. Yet you want to excuse them with some strawman constitutionality argument?
I'm still astonished that the entire criminal system authorized a no knock warrant in the middle of the night over someone possibly receiving drug trade related deliveries. Many lives were needlessly put in danger over something so small. And later investigation showed even that wasn't true.
It was much more than that. Read the background info. From a Louisville local news source:

Its the drug laws themselves that are causing the problems, its the same thing that happened during alcohol prohibition...as soon as alcohol was made legal again, the criminals got out of the industry.
Do you think the drug cartels want drugs to be legalized? OF course not!, legalization brings regulations and standards with it, (forces the criminals out).
I wonder if the boyfriend will take a piece of the $12 MILLION dollar settlement? Wow, shoot at the cops and spin your luck, see what your wheel spins on in the Wheel of Fortune! Gravy Train on this spin!

Its the drug laws themselves that are keeping the criminal element in the drug dealing business!
Look at what happened when alcohol prohibition ended and it was legal again...the criminals got out of the industry...WHY? because legalization brings regulations, standards into it, (forces the criminals out in other words)
The criminals can only thrive when there are laws in place against the product.
