Cops are human. They screw up from time to time. Diallo's family won a pretty penny from them in a lawsuit.

You've got 40,000 officers in the NYPD. There's going to be an error rate.

You're absolutely right, and I think murder represented overcharging. The issue here isn't aberrations, but policy. On other threads I'm assured not only of Rudy's crime fighting prowess, which I don't doubt, but his concern for civil liberties. He's not for gun control, those 30,000 carry permits revoked, an aberration too I suppose.

I've seen this policy defended on other threads.

While illegal in NY State, is this what I should look forward to on a national level, till the US Supreme Court weighs in?

Did crime spurt post March, 2000 when the ruling came down? If not, why is it an important tactic, one to be defended?
