I will only add the crime of impersonating a Federal Officer as well.

Right. If he is willing to do the crime, he should be willing to do the time.

Exactly. They've already paid for their crimes, and while they "might" reoffend, they might not either. It was not up to this guy to make that judgement.

We are a nation of laws, people; you may not like the rules but you cannot take it upon yourself to break them. If you want rule changes, vote for the folks who'll change them.

Vigilantism is no replacement for life sentences without the possibility of parole.

As much as emotion can make one want to excuse this man's actions, we can not.

You are the only one, so far, that has any common sense.

He must be prosecuted. To allow this is to allow a continuance of the lawlessness that went on in New Orleans.

The law is the law, and no man has a right to murder another.

Note: Murder is different than kill.

As much as the visceral reaction is to give hime the keys to the city, we can't descend into vigilantiism.

We are a nation of laws. What if there was a mistake or a spelling error on the web site? A 100% innocent man could be dead because someone decided to short cut the process we all, as Americans, agree to follow.

First rational response.

I would give him consideration for a mental defect, possibly.
