Because after you mow down dope dealing criminal scumbags, that mowing down genie is out of the bottle.

Next comes Hell's Angels, MS-13, the Mexican Zetas, etc. There's a lot of mowing to do.

From then on, whoever has the power gets to pick the next target for mowing down.

That's like saying we shouldn't punish crime, or even try to do something about it, because tomorrow they are gonna come after accountants and fishmongers.

Not at all saying that. In my part of the country, LE will often do roundups and make arrests. Only, they have done investigations, gathered evidence and intel and, SHAZAM! gotten a warrant. Criminals get arrested, get a trial and get punished. In that order.

Due process and equal protection under the law - What a concept.

What would the media response be if a bunch of white police officers were involved in a “mowing down” of nine MS-13 and Mexican gang members? I think we can be pretty certain that the police would be vilified by the media. Where are the anti-police media in this case?
