If the DOJ folks told lies, then their jobs should be forfeit. As Justice Department employees, they should be prosecuted for civil rights violations, since there's no excuse for them violating the laws they know intimately.
The D.A. should have known better. I agree. As for the police, if a person whipped out a DOJ ID, I'd probably take their word for it.
The police are not at fault, if a DOJ person lies their a--es off. It's unfortunate, but I'm not sure I could buy off on their culpability in this.
The police are liable. It is no defense to follow the unlawful directions of someone else, no matter who is giving them. the law is so clear that the cops had an unmistakable duty to tell the DoJ activists to stick it up their a$$. ,P> The 'following orders defense' didn't work at Nuremburg and it won't work here. That they followed directions of a DoJ lawyer may be a mitigating factor in the amount of their liability, they are still liable.
they should all be suspended indefinitely. there is no place for homosexual activists in the Justice Dept. It was bad enough that Ashcroft caved on banning "Gay Day" by these freaks. The "queer" culture at Justice needs to be destroyed.
Zieg Heil! Mine Fueror!
Scuze me for bursting your bubble, but this is America, where local police work for Local Governments, and even a LOCAL prosecutor can not order an arrest without a warrant.
If the police didn't SEE a crime WHY did they make an arrest?
DOJ attorneys carry no authority in local matters.
Sorry, but any policeman in this country who has no more understanding than this on this most fundamental of citizens' rights, has NO business being on the street in any enforcement capacity whatsoever.
