It has been established that the agent was willing to disregard suspect's rights and the rule of law

To be sure, I suppose it was a "technical" violation of his private property Rights to scribble on his calendar. But that violation pales in comparison to the violation of our Rights perpetrated by our corrupt legal system.

If this is all the agent is guilty of, he comes out a lot cleaner than the rest of the system.

It had also been shown that the agent is severely lacking in judgement. Do you deny these things?

The fact that he wrote "Islam is evil" tells me that judgement is NOT something he is lacking.

Why should a jury convict on the say-so of agents who have shown to possess neither integrity nor judgement?

Unlike many cases brought by the feds, it appears that they have hard evidence on this, independent of whatever the Agent might have scribbled on the calendar. Also, making fun of the "religion of peace" is not sufficient cause to impugn his integrity.

Basically, people are making a mountain out of a molehill here. Something is terribly wrong when this agent is being persecuted, and the FBI agent who shot the kid in the face gets off scot-free.

Some on here are of the belief that this agent exhibited
"poor judgement/unprofessional behavior" for a Secret Service agent and that his punishment is appropriate, maybe even too lenient.(Six months suspension, loss of $40,000.00 and blown career)

Yet nobody has yet mentioned the SS agent(middle-eastern) who was removed from an airplane for insufficient paperwork, etc. and then essentially had a full blown temper tantrum in public. What was his punishment? Last I heard it was going to be the possibilty of a cash award far greater than $40,000.00
