So the article is correct---these deployments are not a response to an emergency call. However---thats certainly not to say its not an extremely dangerous armed life or death situation. In other words---I don't find their use in those situations particularly unreasonable.

Just so we are clear, the article is not claiming that serving search warrants cannot be dangerous. It's just that their data supports that these search warrants served with SWAT teams are not always for dangerous situations.

And misuse of these teams has nothing to do with the conclusion of the article.
