>>Try querying the names John Perry, Josie Wells and Pat Carothers while you’re at it.
Hiding behind the badge of dead cops to justify the actions of bad cops is getting tiresome these days. Most cops, almost all in fact, are good people, but 6 cops against one unarmed attorney that required a Taser is excessive and Perry, Wells, and Carothers don’t excuse that—unless the attorney had something to do with killing them.
“Hiding behind the badge of dead cops”??
You miss the point. The USMS isn’t an agency that’s limited to bailiff duty. The agency is on the front lines on a daily basis dealing with the worst of the worst violent offenders. The article attempts to throw the term “federal marshals” in the American bag as “jack booted thugs” and that attitude on this forum and others is getting old. ThAT was my point.
Your comment was a personal insult as I knew EACH of those men personally. I’m not hiding behind a damn thing. Monday morning quarterbacks routinely seem to miss that.
