So Anders cuffs him and doesn't shoot him, what happens? The NM justice system refuses to apply the death penalty, the case drags on for a decade or more, Gary Mitchell takes on Flippen's case, and the Catholic Church in NM asks that he be spared, and the POS is never actually executed. Meanwhile, Flippen murderers 2 more people on behalf of the Aryan Brotherhood over some drug dispute while in prison. I'll buy officer Anders a drink anytime.

****In certain extreme situations, the law is inadequate. In order to shame its inadequacy, it is necessary to act outside the law. To pursue... natural justice. This is not vengeance. Revenge is not a valid motive, it's an emotional response. No. Not vengeance. Punishment. *****

In my Sherrif's Department our Corrections and Workhouse will house State prisoners instead of carrying them to the State Penitentiary. They pay us to house them and it is easier on the families for visitation.

I certainly hope this officer is allowed to stay in a safe environment at his local Sheriff's Department instead of going to the State Penitentiary. Especially since the walls are all a chatter there about his good deed of taking out this POS.

A good trusty he should make, and then build two for one days there in being released in only 6 months.
