Did the cops show up at the funeral or the mass?

[House Atreides]

The linked article showed an actual AK47 held up next to the “replica” AIRSOFT gun. I think only an idiot would mistake the AIRSOFT gun for an AK47. An evil individual on the other hand could well decide on the spur of the moment to use the kid’s holding of the AIRSOFT gun as “rationale” for offing the kid.

The shooter cop and his lying partner and the despicable chief who tried to cover up the unlawful killing all need to be removed from the force. The two cops need to be prosecuted.

The white fabric over the coffin is called a pall. At the beginning of the funeral Mass the coffin is half in the church and half out of the church, representing the past and the present.

The pall represents the past Baptismal garment of white as well as the pall covering the coffin which represents the death of the person.

A crucifix is placed on the coffin and the priest will sprinkle it with Holy Water saying something like.....”From Baptism until death, we come today in memory of.........”

In no way are these words accurate, but they give you the idea of moving from life into death. Then the coffin is escorted into the Church and the priest and servers follow.

Santa Rosa used to be a nice place to live.
Drugs and gangs have claimed over the last 25yrs or so.Moorland Ave heavily crime infested part of town.
Being wine country high incidence of drunk drivers and illegals without licenses.
Remember the story of Ramon Salcido who killed his wife and stabbed his 3 little girls of which one survived?
There seemed to be a problem with the Sonoma Cnty Sheriffs over that also.
Did the boy deserve to be killed with 7 shots? Absolutely not!Why not just one to the knee? Why not some kind of mace etc.. to disable him?
Cops have been too trigger happy lately.
They will pay the price on this one as will the county of Sonoma.

Hey! At least they went home safe that night!

[ASouthernGrl]

Too much testosterone. Cops are for sure out of control. Scary and sad at the same time.

[Old_Grouch]

I would like to know if the cop was taking steroids.
