Maybe here. You gonna vouch for all of the podunk PD's out there? Seems like "wrong house" has happened on more than one occasion.
But you're right, it's extremely unlikely to happen to me. I don't live in that kind of neighborhood, and I'll get my intoxicants and narcotics through nice and legal liquor stores and pharmacies if I feel that I need them.
Podunk PDs typically don't have a SWAT team to do no-knocks. They have to borrow a regional team of some sort. So, yeah, that doesn't add to my worry factor in the slightest.
Mistakes do happen. I think I said that. But not as readily as you seem to think. Multiple people have to drop multiple balls.
I sweat a wrong house entry about as much as I sweat getting hit in the head by a meteor, no matter how much the media tries to make me think otherwise. You know, like this one, where "wrong house" was very much the "right house" even if you don't agree with the tactics used.
