Outlaw no-knock raids

The Issue

This is a huge injustice in our system! No-knock raids should be illegal. So many lives are lost at the hands of cops due to mistakes. “Oh sorry, wrong house” is unacceptable when someone lost their life to a cop’s ‘simple mistake’. In what way does it make sense that a cop, not in uniform, can storm into a private residence in the middle of the night?! Help me send a message that this is NOT okay and we WON’T allow it!  

Approximately 20,000 no-knock raids are performed every year.
