Oh, we believe you are SO insulted. Right?

All I said there as you know is the device isn't made to take life, so I figure she was in poor health already.

I take that back, logical deduction might actually be very insulting to you...Sorry

I did love the dramatic rant, though baseless. Thanks for the laughs.

Okay, Guy, here's the scoop:

What is obnoxious about your posts is the apparent slavish desire to justify any and all behavior by agents of government to accomplish their ends in the WOD.

Police, like any other humans, can make errors. It could well be argued that this woman's untimely death can be laid at the feet, not of the arresting officers, but of the legislative and bureaucratic enablers of this sorry perversion of the legitimate public demand for law and order.

Citizens such as yourself, who pre-emptively defend collateral civilian damage in this neverending war, are the sort of sheeple who will go along with any excesses of the police, so long as you feel exempt. The logical end of this submissiveness is the kind of horrible regime we have all become too well acquainted with over the last century - a police state.

Don't think it can't happen here. Attitudes such as yours encourage the worst kind of authoritarians. You're really going to love the kind of policing Hillary has in mind for America.

As for my Koolaid-drinkers remark, that metaphor is based on the Jonestown mass-suicide by poisoned Koolaid.

By extension, 'drinking the Koolaid' means to swallow whole whatever set of ideas is suggested to you by those you ackowledge as superiors.

In your case, specifically, the Anslinger/Walters School of Misinformation and Deceit.

Police deserve some respect; you do not.
