"Billy, when I say that ethics is our number one priority and safety is also our number one priority, you should take that to mean exactly what I said. Also quality. That's our number one priority as well. Don't look at me that way, you're in the corporate world now and this is how it works."

LA is great for accidental raids.

The big difference between Portland and LA is that LA shot him in a raid, whereas in Portland he would have been shot in a park, a grocery store, while jaywalking, or for not using the sidewalk.
"I'm guessing it was January 2007, a meeting in Bethesda, we got a bag of bees and just started smashing them on the desk," Charles Wick said. "It was very complicated."

In Portland they would have shot him because Tuesday.

Or, possibly, in his own house. But not during a raid; it would be after calling the police himself, to report a prowler.

Chelsea (London Chelsea, that is) is also good for that.  IIRC, they pepper-sprayed a man to DEATH for calling in a disturbance.

Which, I have to say, shows one hell of a work ethic on the part of the cops.
