I never stated what I wanted to see, only what I felt. However, I feel that enough leos had entered the home- that they were not all searching rooms one by one together in a group. I would expect that as they came across a resident and before they were allowed to exit one by one as we saw in the video, that yes, indeed they would have been patted down. It would have been foolish to have let an armed individual exit, don't you agree? After all- they did enter looking for an armed individual.
You never did answer my question. Would you feel any different if they had marched 4 and 5 year olds out like that?
