They may (for whatever reason) raid you even though you've locked down your AP. They may not even know you've locked down your AP. The purpose of a SWAT raid is to get the evidence before the perp (you, in this case) destroys the evidence. They may not even care that you have your AP locked down. Their job is to gather evidence, and let the courts sort out later the relevance and interpretation of that evidence. * The SWAT may raid your home for some entirely unrelated reason, such as having the wrong address.
