No offence, but don’t the cops have more important things to do than trying to bait people into committing crimes?
As you can see from the story, honest people can't be "baited". The cops are doing their job - catching crooks. Or in this case, trying to catch crooks.
sitting around entrapping people seems to be what passes for police work in some areas.....
That's like saying you came across a naked girl crying for help, and instead of covering her and giving her help, you just raped her also, figuring she asked for it by being naked. After all, who could blame you.
If I see someones plasma TV in a vehicle, I don't somehow think he's an idiot for leaving it where I can get it. It's his, not mine.
The thief shouldn't be surprised when I pop a cap in his brain pan, after all, it's just a TV. He would do much better to meet the cop rather than me. Either way, he doesn't deserve to walk among real Americans.
BTW, I live in Texas and agree with the guy in Pasadena shooting the 2 illegals robbing his neighbor. He would get a "no bill" from me if I were on the Grand Jury.
