It's all fun and games until someone loses a foot

Twenty percent of the Hempstead, Texas police force is under felony indictment after being accused of discharging SWAT flash-bang grenades not once, but TWICE, for kicks, the second time at a party where a guest allegedly lost a foot. Officers are under indictment for various things such as felony assault and evidence tampering. Officers apparently tried to cover up when their less bright brethren decided to do this, and destroyed evidence and tried to hide a crime scene.

Remember, law enforcement officers are the only people professional enough to handle certain weapons properly, unlike the peasants, who would only do stupid stuff with them.
