All it would take is one experience like this, and even reasonable people would not be in the mood for another.

I understand people being upset about this...but I sure hope you aren't saying this in ANY way justifies shooting a police officer. My partner is paralyzed from being shot after a "routine" traffic stop. Trust me, there is nothing routine about any traffic stop.

No, I am not.

I'm just saying that I'm starting to understand why it happens.

Sorry about your partner, and wish him or her well.

We recently lost a deputy sheriff in this community to a thug stopped for a license plate light violation.

Maybe we should reconsider threatening people with fines and imprisonment for burnt-out lightbulbs and other such things.

"but I sure hope you aren't saying this in ANY way justifies shooting a police officer."

Defending a life savings from being stolen under the force of government sponsered guns is not a legitimate use of defensive force?

Would it justify shooting an armed robber masquerading as a cop?

Should all armed robbers have such protection and sympathy?
