Is there some sort of double standard here?

The officers in other situations where people are angry over their actions have had their names widely revealed.

The Oregon State Police participated in the FBI operation goaded on by Governor Kate Brown and now they have to deal with the consequences. They put themselves in this situation.

Pathetic.

Will we ever know the name of who was responsible for shooting Finicum? The legislation speaks of a 90 day delay. The story says this guy wanted a six month one originally but the ACLU balked.

Perhaps they just want time to get the officer and his family into hiding.

They knew they were wrong, or they wouldn’t want to hide. They’ll probably go into the witness protection program at our expense.

Well the “wack-jobs” already know the name of Jeff Barker.

Now all they need to know is his address.

I guess the state of Oregon believes they have the right to commit a non-judicial killing without Identifying who the perp is.

If that’s the case than Murder is now legal in Oregon. That is if your a protected government official.

The Public has the Right to know who the Killer is Governor Brown. release the name. The Public wants Justice and a through Independent Investigation. Otherwise there is No Justice.

If the officer has been getting death threats then that means people know who he is, even if this stupid legislation is put in place. This stupid politician is trying to put the horse back inside the barn.

This would make all legislatures voting for this and the signing governor complicate in murder after the fact.

Darren Wilson had his name out there fifteen minutes after Michael Brown stole his last Swisher Sweet.

What about the poor guy WNO shot Michael Brown. His name was not protected. He was innocent. Why can’t we know who shot LaVoy if it was such a righteous shooting?

The officer may be a legitimate target, but his family is NOT, unless we choose to become what the left accuses us of being, terrorists.

The real target should be whoever GAVE THE ORDERS that resulted in his murder.
