So say the police that broke his neck. His family claims it was a legal folding knife. Given the nature of both parties I have no reason to believe either. However until I see the knife I defer to the citizen.
So say that the police broke his neck. What difference does it make whether or not the knife was legal? Is possession of an illegal switchblade a capital offense now? Do we now execute the death penalty without the necessity of all that foolish due process crap? Are we really in favor of allowing our police officers the power of life and death over the citizenry?
