So they, like our congress critters, deserve special laws to protect just them?

Maybe they should get bodyguards too?

Although I agree with you in principle, and I hope and pray that NO cop is targeted just for being a cop, and that in practice that would be a "hate crime" (targeting someone for what they are, not who they are), the systemic damage of setting in law that any citizen is somehow better than the rest of us is in the longer run lethal to a democracy.

P.S. tracking down the miscreant and 'ending his days' wouldn't be a hate crime in my book.

I see that you do understand my point.
