All right. Let's think this through.
The cops get a warrant to enter a house. Due to some kind of screwup along the line, they enter the wrong house.
If you are innocent and hear the cops illegally breaking into your house, are you going to say to yourself, "Oh, I can start shooting these guys legally!"?
Sure. Go right ahead. How likely is your survival if you start blasting away at a boatload of cops?
From the cops' perspective, a bad guy opened up on them and they responded with about 438 rounds. You're dead. Your wife is dead. Your baby is dead. Your dog is dead. The fleas in your bed are dead.
I'd say this law has made it inevitable that a lot more innocent people are going to get killed.
All the cops on a murder charge, because a death occurred in the pursuit of what turned out to be a crime, illegally entering a home?
