Yep, an innocent victim who engaged in fire fights just innocently defending him self from an over zealous Obama administration.
I hope you guys eventually come to the conclusion you’re both correct (sez the guy about to be flamed from both sides).
John’s right, the Feds moving in and trying this guy is not in the enumerated powers. He’s also right we’ve been violating this for at least 150 years. We can’t get back to where we should be if we keep taking steps away from the enumerated powers, toward tyranny.
Ron’s right, that train left the station a long time ago, and we have to work with the structure as it is today, which is: The Feds have made this an enumerated power, and because of that the state’s power is diminished, perhaps to the point that justice won’t be done on this guy. Trying him in a Federal court may be the only way he gets what’s coming to him (MA hasn’t had a death penalty since 1947).
Ok, please shoot past me if you must? Gracious.
