Louisville SWAT busting down doors on a hunch

The article clearly says, the wrong houses was raided. How did the police know the suspects' race? How do you know if the intended suspects were black or not?

I know it's easy to blame racism for issues like these, but if you do a Google search, you'll see that these types of raids happen quite often for weed dealers. This isn't a race issue, this is an inability to properly handle a non-life threatening problem. To make matters worse, they had the wrong house to begin with.

They just need to legalize it nationwide and be done with it. We shouldn't be using excessive police force over a damn plant. Weed isn't some dangerous street drug.
