>>>> [GWB] believed they were excessive and that they had already suffered the loss of their jobs, freedom and reputations, a senior administration official said. <<<<<<

GWB is unbelievable.

The pardon leaves them with this undeserved black mark (felony conviction) FOR LIFE. Everyone knows the implications.

I do not understand GWB’s allegiances or his moral computations.

The man makes no sense whatsoever.

I see that point (which I agree with for the most part) as a seperate issue from R&C’s actions.

It only means they can’t work as LEO’s again. They can petition the court for expungement in a couple of years.

Bottom line is they will both be home with their families soon, and we all agree thats a very good thing.

What these two men have had to endure for doing their job is shameful. Recently one of the families of the guards returned home to find their house trashed and set fire to by drug lord thugs. Shameful.

GWB still believes that it is a crime
to defend the borders from invaders.

What a guy.
