That is a problem. I have a hard time explaining to people that don't read Radley Balko's work that police kill many innocent people every year in the name of stopping people from getting high. My non-libertarian friends just assume that the dead person did something wrong, otherwise why would the police shoot at them? They never question the authority of the state, and whether or not police should have the power to knock down doors unannounced on the basis of anonymous tips in the first place.
