Yeah, you need to suffer the appropriate penalties and not have people crying out for pardons. Especially people with hidden agendas.

Abuse under color of authority is a felony. Felony means prison, not jail. Prison means hard time.

The only mistake Ramos and Campeon made was in not finishing the guy off rather than just shooting him in the butt. Dead men don’t talk, nor lie. You choose to take the word of the drug dealer. I choose to side with the border agents. You have chosen to be on the wrong side of the border.

Whatever the agendas (of all involved), there would be little downside to Bush just issuing the pardon.

It would certainly do a lot, toward rebuilding Republican unity. That alone, given how vague and questionable the “facts” in the cases are — justifies him just doing it.

As it stands, it’s starting to look like a vandetta, by someone.

I’m not real familiar with the case.

They deserved to be fired but I don’t think they should spend 11 or 12 years in prison for shooting a drug dealer in the ass. That’s pretty ridiculous.

Circumstance should always be considered, beyond the letter of the law.
