You are correct Corey is no liberal. However she is a classic ‘law and order’ conservative. These folks are as dangerous to individual liberties as any leftist. They are in love with the majesty of the law and the power of the state. I recall vividly one very conservative magistrate literally becoming incoherently rageful when I stated that the Waco cultists were within their rights as Americans to use deadly force to defend themselves against unknown raiders. His entire argument was ‘they fired on law enforcement officers’. The same here i fear is Corey detests the idea that just anyone without a badge or ‘the color of law’ can defend themselves and use deadly force. Because that means one has no obligation to retreat before the power and majesty of the state if one is doing no wrong and defending ones person or property.

‘they fired on law enforcement officers’

Section 219 of the Texas code allows that, if the officer uses unnecessary deadly force upon someone.

The written rule of law won in that case, and the Branch Davidians were acquitted of murdering the agents.

I’m afraid the rule of written law will lose here, just like in that OJ mess.

At least no riots over that, unlike Rodney King.
