Look at those glasses. Plus, at 92 who knows how good her hearing was. Just terrible.
oops
One thing about it, she hit what she was aiming at. 5 out 6 ain't bad for moving targets
Atlanta City Hall should get busy ordering stationery with the city's new name: "Kathryn Johnstonville."
Jackbooted Thugs are as Jackbooted Thugs do.
Given the story presented here, it sounds like it may have 'accidently' fallen out of a policemans pocket.
Most of the time, I strongly support law enforcement officers. After all, they don't bother me, and I want them to come if I ever call. This case, however, worries me. I first heard about it when Neal Boortz dealt with the story, and you know where he came down. The woman may or may not have been afraid enough to fire those shots, but since most of the 'facts' are evaporating fast, I wonder what the rest of this story will be. I fear it's not going away anytime soon.
btt
There was a clear violation on the part of the police and the jedge that issued the warrant. I hope they are ALL prosecuted for murder.
Federal Rules require that any informant used to obtain a search warrant swear, and sign said sworn affidavit, that they witnessed the crime for which the warrant is being issued.
This poor woman's survivors are going to be VERY RICH. And I contend, again, the officers involved...and the judge...should be tried for murder.
This is the third thread I've seen on this the last couple days. I hadn't realized until now that it was an informant, not an undercover policeman, who is alleged to have bought drugs at that address. Big difference.
I hope I am as good a shot if and when someone come kickin in my door.
Who knows what the real truth is?
I'm not sure how many more stories like this it's going to take before we stop wasting resources on the failed war on some drugs. Hopefully not many more.
What is this country coming to?
"No-knock warrants" (sounds like legalized home invasion), confiscating property, seatbelt checkpoints, etc.
We have become nothing but serfs.
This action had a stink about it from the first, and it's rapidly turning to a stench. We'll see if any more "evidence" evaporates as the "investigation" continues.
Guess the consitutional notion of 'probable cause' has been shredded these days - along with so much else in the late document.
Kent: Kent Brockman here for a follow-up with Springfield's favorite hard-luck family, the Simpsons. Folks, any words for the Christmas thief if he's watching?
Homer: Eh, yes… Kent. Uh, hello… jerk. We may never find you, and we should probably all stop looking. But one thing's for sure… you do exist.
Kent: Strong words, strong bewildering words.
Ha ha ha.
Oh well...

If someone comes busting into our home, we are to wait and see if they are cops.
I am beginning to think she wasn't that good a shot, the cops pulled a "Lubbock SWAT" screwup.
Drugs screwup the thinking of cops and DAs as much as they do the druggies.
