I wonder how many folks cheering the burning of Dorner also have a “They’ll take my gun when they pry it from my cold dead hands!” bumper sticker.
Perhaps I can start selling a “.... pry it from by charred dead hands!” version on Ebay, now.
And we are still debating if Major Nadal Hassan can be forced to shave his beard before trial?
Quite a contrast in versions of “Rule of Law” and “innocent until proven guilty”.
No, I am NOT a fan of Dorner. I just don’t like the propensity of the police to drop everything else and every cop on the force converge when one of their own is in danger, yet take their own sweet time when an ordinary citizen asks for help. They they start blazing away at women delivering papers, the family dog, etc.
Anyone ever hear of discipline? Patience?
It only matters when it is THEIR RIGHTS donchaknow!
PDs have become street gangs with the color of law. The psychology is no different between the two. Loyalty to the group over all others.
