Reply #21: I wondered that too [View All]

Although I think that the cops had no business doing this, I also would like to know how is it the man didn't wake until cops came right into his bedroom and shined their big old Maglights in his face? I guess some people do sleep deeply, but really, if I had had all those kids downstairs (actually I wouldn't have let such young kids have a sleepover downstairs to begin with), I wouldn't have gotten a wink of sleep, and I know no parent, unless they've taken some serious sleeping pills, who wouldn't have awakened way before the cops made it into the house, let alone the bedroom. I have a large dog, so I do sleep a little easier, but it's no alternative to making sure your house is locked up at night. I have no idea how anyone, no matter where they live, could go to bed at night and not lock up the house and make sure the car didn't have the keys in the ignition, in addition to the situation with the young kids being unsupervised. The cops were wrong, but what was going on in this house that night was irresponsible.

BTW, I think most schools are out for the summer so it wasn't a school night.
