This is insane. Yes, the teen resisted arrest, I could understand those charges. But attempted murder? Once again, illogic rules.

There is probably some forensic evidence that indicates the heart attack was brought on by the kick...can you say "arterial blood clot?"

The deputy probably had a heart-attack from eating too many doughnuts.

Ha ha, very funny. Hope you don't ever need the services of a cop.

Hope you don't ever need the services of a cop.

In my 33 years of life I never have, and they usually leave me alone because I'm up to date on my payoffs.

KNOCK! KNOCK! Opps, did I mail off this month's?!

AHH the services of a cop.....that would be ticketed for not wearing my seat belt, or a helmet, or a ticket for a blown tag lightbulb that carries a 90 dollar fine, or maybe a ticket for having an expired tag while driving the car to the repair shop to have it fixed after it failed an emissions test, or how bout being stopped at a random paper checkpoint, or threatened with jail if you don't want your car searched at said checkpoint, or having your life destroyed because you use a drug the good government thinks you should not....or even being shot in the mouth in a clean shoot of a helpless teenager....tell me oh poobar,,,what good are the police??? they never stop a crime, they create crimes where none exist, break every law they want, bust down doors in the middle of the night and shoot the occupants,,but it's ok, they just had the wrong home.....the list is virtually endless..but what good do they do??

What good is a cop other than a flimsy deterrent against crime and a historian ?

It's not like they will come through charging and save the day.

I put more trust in my 454 than in a badge to defend me.

I still don't think the kid should get charged with murder. If a cop is going to be working the beat, he's got to be in shape. If his ticker isn't up to par, put him behind a desk.

The ideologues seem to like mob rule, eh? They're not interested in the rule of law, or factual evidence.
