“What I read regularly is people very concerned with laws that destroy liberty”
Well that is something we can all agree on. But I see a lot of hyperbole such as “jack-boots, thugs, police state”, and presumption of guilt due to being a police officer.
I challenge you to link to one post that says that. You will fail.
Presumption of bad motives and, yes, guilt for SWAT members. I’ll go for that. My brother-in-law participated in a lot of those and eventually was the chief for the region for those actions for the state ATF. His warm reminiscences are chilling, not for the dangers faced by the agents but for the attitudes expressed by the guys doing the deeds.
You mean like "your presumption of guilt" concerning the mineworker/marine?
In all of the stories we've read thus far, there hasn't been ONE SINGLE SHRED of evidence that he was doing anything criminal or even wrong.
Yet moe-moes like you still come in here and prattle on defending the pathetic goons that blew him away.
