Am I one of the few here that thinks that maybe it’s NOT a good idea for it to be legal to assault or shoot a police officer who makes a questionable judgment call about entering a home, based on one’s skill as an armchair lawyer?

I don’t see where this law prohibits you from verbally refusing entry to cops without a warrant, or where it would keep cops out of hot water, pressed charges and/or lawsuits for illegally trespassing. Assuming I’m right about that, I don’t get where this is a problem, nor how it’s really a significant change in existing policy in most places.

If I’m wrong, someone please fill me in on details….
