The main point, not enough officers! You are dealing with criminals, with hide gun shirts on. There is no such things as pot busts, visiting uncles, family members etc. You have to assume you are approaching danger!

I can see your point. Just as long as it doesn't have the appearance you are rolling up with military like force for something that is not necessarily a military action.
People could fear that the government was over arming for a police-state and that would not do anything for gaining or maintaining trust that the government, local or otherwise, was not gearing up.
They would have had more police had there been an an actual warrant as well.
More than likely sheriff's.
