No, not at all. Police can have a valid warrant, the right address, even though you've done nothing wrong.
This happened to me once. One night at 3am the local cops were banging on my door - loudly. I turned on all of the lights, confirmed they were police officers by looking out the window, and opened up my door. They cam in force - four of them - all armed with shot guns. They had a report of some kind of domestic disturbance, and for some reason they thought it was coming from my house.
Shooting them because they were "illegally trespassing on my property at 3am" never crossed my mind.
Listen, it's very fucking simple. If the cops raid your house for whatever reason you have two options:
1) Do what your told, hope it doesn't hurt too much when they drag your face on the floor, and then sue them for being idiots.
2) Open fire on police and be shot dead.
I know which choice I'm taking. Idiots.
