I shot the Sheriff, but I did not shoot the deputy. Oh wait, I did shoot the deputy.
Actually, it is. Learn to use a dictionary, it can be your friend, or at least keep you from looking like a dumbass, or more than you already are.

bur·glar·ize:
verb
past tense: burglarized; past participle: burglarized
"Our summer house has been burglarized."
That's a bit harsh no? I would place a much larger blame on the judges that sign these warrants, and even more so on the high judges that allowed the first ones setting precedence.Irony is that the police there are called "Peace Officers". Further irony is that the officer killed, Burleson County Sgt. Adam Sowders, was the person responsible for obtaining the no-knock warrant that resulted in his own death.
My opinion: Sowders wanted to play badass military-style tough guy, and rightfully paid the price. Good riddance.
While this seems cromulent you don't seem to allow for a living language.The word is burgled.

All of the bold words are real words.
Because, obviously, the government has no reason to ever search the premises without consent. Reasonable cause is just an excuse for a police state...
as we've seen "reasonable" is subjective.

I'm not really sure what to think here. I know there are numerous situations where law enforcements enters the home without following proper procedures or even entering the wrong home altogether causing accidents like this. Unfortunately in most cases, the civilian defending his family never wins against law enforcement regardless of how poorly they carried out their duties. In cases like this I think that when law enforcement fails to follow protocol hence making situations violent (because people might think their house is being robbed) or fucks up an invades the wrong house. Those officers should not receive legal protection as law enforcement, and they should be tried as intruders and be seen as such in the eyes of the law.
If the officers did follow procedures than I would side with the cops. Unfortunately it doesn't seem like any of this was caught on camera so who knows. Of course the cops will tell you that they did follow protocol.
This makes another case for recording all police activity.
I live here, no you can't. Troll.I know it's Texas where you can shoot anybody for pretty much any reason
Burgled sounds like something you do to somebody's naughty parts.

Either is acceptable. Burglarized is much more common in the USA, although burgled is less cumbersome. Dictionary.com dates both burgle and burglarize from the 1870s. Burgle is a back-formation from burglar.
In fact, if you wanted to make an argument you might say that "burglarize" is more regular because -ize is the way you form verbs from nouns. "Burgle" is a corruption because the word "burglar" came first, and its -ar is not the agentive -er as in "writer", "toaster", etc. The presupposition that it is based on the previously nonexistent verb "burgle" would therefore be an error. If it were, "burglar" would have had the spelling "burgler", which it does not.
All of the bold words are real words.
Just like colour and color, behavior and behaviour, etc.
From my perspective, burglarized sounds more appropriate for this use. It's perfect for the past-tense description of an occurance on a property. "My home was burglarized while I was at the store" sounds infinitely better than "My home was burgled while I was at the store".
