His life ended in mingling with gangs. Getting combat wounded 40 years ago doesn’t give you free pass to act like a thug. A purple heart means you were wounded in battle, on one specific day, nothing more.

The Waco cops did fantastic. And the prosecutors and judge are matching them.

No, you totally misunderstand. These guys were at a church prayer meeting and the breastaurant was the only place big enough to hold the whole party.

I am sorry my friend. I don’t see this one the way you do.

Too many lies and too much posturing coming out of the Waco Police Dept. This is a FUBAR SWAT team incident.

Conservative Treehouse has been covering this better than anyone, this was twisted in the press from the beginning.

We are old friend, see almost everything the same here, but I disagree on this.

The facts aren’t even known, and 9 dead are a fantastic outcome? Thank you for removing any pretense as to who or what you are...

...doesn’t give you free pass to act like a thug.

You have evidence that he acted like a thug?

No. Of course you don't.

I find your comments to be evil.

"The Waco cops did fantastic. And the prosecutors and judge are matching them."

Weren't you on a similar thread calling for the indiscriminate killing of bikers, so as to send a message? What happened to due process? If you think it's okay to kill Americans without due process, like I said before, you are one sick puppy.

Pray you never find yourself on the receiving end of the treatment you would suggest for other Americans.

I think you are either very badly misinformed, making unfounded assumptions (remember the old military saying “assumption is the mother of all f**k ups?), or a major league a**hole. I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and hope you are in the middle category.

IMHO you, and others of similar mind, do FReepers a disservice when you justify mass murder (and an ensuing/ongoing coverup?) by Statist police. The cops who pulled the triggers in this massacre were NOT “serving and protecting”; they were committing unjustified homicides.

How do you know he was acting like a thug?

Does "acting like a thug" give the authorities free reign to shoot you down like a dog?

You need to do some soul searching, FRiend.

Thank you - my thoughts exactly. Plus, being wounded in a combat arena doesn't necessarily equate to "upstanding citizen". 24 years in uniform and another 15 years as a civilian working with uniformed troops will show one the spectrum of who comprises our warriors.

God bless him for his service and I hope it doesn't turn out to be a bad deal engineered by LEOs that ended up murdering folks and screwing the royal pooch.
