Police said they can sympathize with the stress Jensen was under. But they said he put himself and officers in danger when he refused to back down from fighting the fire.

I detest these small-brained idiots with a little authority. They don't know it's not enough to SAY that he put himself and officers in danger when he refused to continue fighting a fire that threatened his property.
How exactly, you morons?
Obama may get away with that crap, but you incompetents can't.

Pinellas Park Capt. Sanfield Forseth told the Tampa Bay Times authorities could have even charged Jensen with obstruction, but decided against it.

Then charge him, pea-brain! I relish the thought of a trial and the decision of a jury.
Or be prepared to lose a suit for abuse of power under color of authority. I would contribute to this victim's defense.

What irks me mist is that dangling over our heads are thousands of laws, of which no one—not regular citizens nor cops nor lawyers—has comprehensive knowledge, any one of which we can be guilty of at any moment. That, not absence of rules, represents the bad kind of anarchy. The worst are the elastic charges like obstruction, disorderly conduct, etc. through which cops on the scene become absolute dictators.

The cops were the only ones doing any obstructing!
