It is the responsibility of others to clearly post their beliefs. It is not your responsibility to interpret it for them. You must be very busy.

It was clear.
Words mean something.
Trying to alter what language means to try and hedge or sidestep is not something a conservative does.

What was wrongful is that the cop singled him out personally for maximum aggression, instead of expressing enthusiasm for enforcing this particular law fairly and generally in the most peaceful possible way. Those two issues - personal focus and maximum endangerment, turn the statement into a terroristic threat outside of the bounds of his authority.

And, as it could only serve to inflame the fears of the citizenry, it also increased the possibility of panic fighting on both sides, and thereby increased the possibility of deaths for both families AND cops. So as he increased the risk of harm to his fellow officers, he undermined law enforcement safety as well.

Is that enough?
