I was making a list, but if you really need a list, then you’ve not been following the news. Ever hear of a woman called Breonna?

He has a "foreign sounding" name and there were no deaths or nighttime SWAT raids as a result of the bogus bomb threat his teacher called in. >Ever hear of a woman called Breonna? If you're referring to Breonna Taylor, I don't think she was accused of building bombs and no-knock warrants are an entirely different issue IMO from warrantless searches resulting from bomb threats. From perusing the wikipedia list of unsuccessful terrorist attacks [1], I didn't notice a single alleged bombmaker who was killed by police. Including many who were foreign-born and who were of African-American or Middle Eastern descent.
