Yes.... but it's important to be aware that IN THE U.S., the glitz of using SWAT in THAT that way provided the marketing necessary to slip over-funding for SWATs (even in tiny, rural police departments) past the white public in order to fund a drug war when the drug use here was actually waning.... which resulted in the disproportionate (genocidal) mass incarceration of a rising ethnic group, with extreme violence.
