Let's see, your boss is the US Government (President, Attorney General/Secretary of commerce/Homeland Defense, US Attorney), and he tells you "pack heat".

While enforcing the law, and you agree. So what happens when you break it?

So, you break it ~ but the critical charge is more administrative than criminal in nature, and many experienced bureaucrats argue that it's simply not the sort of thing anyone is ever held to account for in a criminal court.

Recall, the supposed crime (mostly in Sutton's imagination) yielded a 1 or 2 year sentence at most. The greater part of the years come from the charge of having a gun present at the scene of that "crime". Whether or not the guys shot one gun, or two guns, or whatever, is irrelevant. The law applies if you do a crime and have a gun there.

ALL of the people responsible for that gun being there should have been put on trial under Sutton's theory ~. That includes the entire chain of command up to and including the President.

Sutton is engaging in a rather selective prosecution ~ viewed as much by the Hispanic citizen voters who didn't vote for any Republicans this last election.

I provided the example of the FBI agent who just up and shot a totally innocent Eagle Scout in Maryland for no reason at all. That agent was not put on trial by Justice department. in fact, DOJ fought like crazy to defend him ~ even from a civil suit by the victim.

If Ramos and Campeon had been blue eyed blonds I'm pretty sure Sutton would have defended them to the nines!

GeoBush all along has tried his best to demoralize the Border agents. The biased MSM has called the Minutemen ‘vigilantes’ to create division and discredit . I was not ‘there’ at the scene of the so-called crime/crimes, & have seen articles supporting the agents / accusing them; I can only think that they are innocent because of the type of loyal Bushbots amongst the officials. Even this judge wouldn’t give them a break. Their lives and their families are destroyed because they shot a scumbbag drug dealer in the act of breaking the law. If there is any law, anymore.
