Suspected cop-killer Eric Frein ARRESTED in Pennsylvania
Dailymail ^ | 19:34 EST, 30 October 2014 | Associated Press and Ashley Collman

Pennsylvania State Police, ending a seven-week manhunt, have captured a man accused of ambushing two troopers, leaving one dead and seriously injuring the other.

Eric Frein, 31, was taken into custody Thursday, state police said. NBC reports that Frein was found in a hanger at Pocono Mountain Airport, where they received a report he was hiding.

Despite being armed with a gun, sources told CNN that he was arrested by U.S. marshals without incident. Marshals surrounded the hangar, called out Frein's name and he surrendered.

However, pictures of Frein in the back of a police cruiser show him nursing a wound to his nose. It's unclear how he sustained the injury.

He will now reportedly be taken back to Blooming Grove police barracks, where he allegedly shot a state trooper dead on September 12, to be booked in jail to await his first court appearance.

That is what the death penalty is for, someone that can murder without conscience.

I guess he doesn’t even understand what a buffoon his own words paint him as...

Are you just really pissed at the cops and think “the Man” got what he deserved?

He was sentenced to death; so he skated free from that. For a Mumai (vs this survivalist Frein kid) life in prison beats the death penalty.

backwoods is gently reminding DJ MacWow of his own post, because DJ apparently "forgot" that he posted that tripe.

You have detailed knowledge of the thousands of arrest made by the Marshals every year?

So you are saying this turd is a hero? Fighting the good fight against oppression and the police state? He ambushed two State Troopers for no good reason. There is no good reason to murder. These Troopers weren’t part of a SWAT team who killed innocents. This isn’t war. You have been watching “Red Dawn” too much. Your Hatred for police is bordering on insanity. Hope you and that other person find the help you two so badly need.

Your portrayal of the the police as an innocent party is worse. "Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

And Blah Blah Blah. I hear the Black Panthers are looking for a few good cop killers. Maybe you can join them. A beret would look good on you.

"No one is excusing Frein."

Really?

"Yeah, the Founding Fathers were just downright menaces, weren't they? I mean, they were worse than Eric Frein, because they set multiple ambushes for the enforcers of the legitimate government? They should have been put on Death Row, huh? " http://freerepublic.com/focus/chat/3221510/posts?page=14#14

Kiryandil?
Forum etiquette, if you mention someone, you ping them.
You’ve been here long enough to know that, you idiot.

The smell of posters tonguing boot leather is strong with this thread... LOL! :)

And everyone who doesn't slaver over the thought of fondling used LEO banana-hammocks is an "idiot"...

The smell of idiots idolizing a murderous Serbian thug is overpowering!

Don't pretend my comment was in a vacuum. DJMacWoW spoke the incredible blanket statement "[a]nyone that can ambush another human being that coldly is a danger to society." I was just showing him/her/it how stupid that comment was, and what a broad brush he was painting with.

And yeah, the cops are the standing army the Founders feared. Frein, the cops, the politicians, all of them are guilty in this.

But the reaction to this story is very enlightening. It tells me is that when Americans do rise up to stand against tyranny with rifles, they will be called "murderers", "terrorists", and worse for standing against "The Legitimate Authorities" who are just as dirty and just as guilty. And it will be done RIGHT HERE ON FR.

LOL.
Your comment is in defense of a murderous thug.
You DID compare Frein to the founders.

Shouldn't you be preparing to vote for your Republican betters on Tuesday? Crouch down and lick the boots of "The Legitimate Authorities" who are just as murderous as any "Serbian thug". Maybe they won't flashbang your kids and shoot your wife in the brain. Maybe.

Reading comprehension is key. Without it, you make ignorant-sounding statements like the one above.

What do RINOs have to do with Frein and your defense of him via comparing him to the Founders?
Nothing at all.
