“Having a bad day?”
Yep, some cop across the river went nuts and killed a bunch of folks. You?
As we have learned over and over, the initial news reports of events are not reliable. I will watch the progress of this and see what the facts are after our journalist friends finish screwing up the initial reports and provide something like accuracy.
After all the facts are in, then I will make an informed judgement about the guilt or innocence of any accused be they police or civilians.
We as a society have made the decision to accept people going “nuts and killing bunches of folks”. We let them all out of the state mental institutions in the sixties and now we have our intermittent attrocities.
There will be some on the left who want to emphasize that this is a cop to further degrade our faith in our law enforcement institutions. It is not unknown, even in the state of Wisconsin for the media and our political leaders to make snap judgements about the activities of the police in valid law enforcement situations.
Both now and then, I probably will avoid smearing every reader of a fairly widely read website the way you just have. Perhaps you think it is better to react like Nifong and the Duke LaCross case or Murtha and the Haditha Marines, but that isn’t mark of a citizen who values a “system of justice”
or is this your golden hour to bash all cops in light of this tragedy? you have already insinuated that your local cops don't give ride-alongs because they have something to hide.
you seem almost happy that this was a cop.
Good reply.
