I dont know the truth behind this but I am a little older than this man was and a retired police officer. I identify with both.I hate this young officer is dead and may God forgive Matthews but it appears he certainly got what he deserved.God be with Mr. Taylors family at such a trying time.
Saying this these are trying times for me and maybe older people like Matthews. I once believed in the Constitution as strongly as he until I found it only applied to certain people and that the government manipulates it to their satisfaction and to where it benifits them.
I have said before that government steps on ordinary folks
and it is serious when you are aging and your back to the wall and after being a law abiding citizen being thrown to the wolves by your government that you defended and did everything they required of you.Government has become dangerous and taking our rights,I joke not.
I am in the process of showing some of this once I can get a web site up and running.I would defend the average American to my death even now.But I say in all honesty I would not convict a soul that wiped out certain people in South Carolina government if I had to judge them.South Carolina through its courts and government stripped my rights to face my accusers and defend my family name and honor.
I am slow because I do not have the expertise to set up the site.I am getting help and the time is coming and I hope to be able to announce it on this site when I get it up and running.
I could accept a group of my peers condeming me whether I liked it or not.But I believe I can show a conspiracy and a coverup by certain portions of the South Carolina Government and all I want is a chance to clear my name before I die.
I hope that you get the chance to clear your name, I know that is important.
It's not likely that Don Matthews' name will be cleared on this one...he went too far.
From all of the articles I have posted and read, Matthews thought of himself as a connoisseur of the U.S. Constitution.
The news media loves stories like this because it gives them ammo against the second amendment in the Constitution.
"2nd Amendment A well-regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."
Don Matthews spent a great amount of time declaring the importance and values of the Constitution...but in the end...he "crapped" on the Constitution...when he killed Officer Taylor.
Prayers and thoughts to the brave officer and his family.
