The fact that some cop may or may not be “totally upset” with his negligent homicide is irrelevant. This was criminal negligence and the cop who pulled the trigger needs to spend time in jail for manslaughter.

Thanks for the gratuitous insult, and no, those of us who feel that way are not “ignorant”.

I know you said you don’t care if we “call you a copsucker”, so let me be the first. We are well aware it was not a “planned execution”, but some mistakes deserve swift, severe punishment.

So in your opinion vigilante justice should win the day in this case over presumption of innocence, and one of the most sacred principles in the American criminal justice system, holding that a defendant is innocent until proven guilty, should be ignored. Got it.

Which amendments to the Constitution do you also wish to dispose of?

For your sake, I sincerely hope that if you, or a loved one, should accidentally cause the death of someone and are placed on trial, that none of the jurors sitting on your case have determined their desire to return a guilty verdict upon you before hearing all of the facts.

Call me what you must, however, your insults have zero affect on my thinking things through, instead of easily following my emotional sentiments.
