Honestly I don't know or care. It's not like this guy was a missionary or a rhodes scholar or anything beneficial. What he was, was a life time criminal with a rap sheet full of drug related charges and other things stretching back 8 years. I mean sucks that he died but Im not going to mourn for there being one less criminal in the world. I have no problem with cops. They have always been more than fair and friendly with me. Oh maybe its because I'm equally respectful to them instead of assuming they are just legal thugs.

They can't do anything....They have so many restrictions....They are only allowed to kill when adequate force is shown....I know many good cops that don't the the badge for granted as their right to kill....if someone is using deadly force against you, they can use deadly force to protect you from that person....all citizens have this right, not just cops......

I listened to the Baltimore SA as she laid out her charges. If things went down as she stated, and the officers are convicted by a jury, I believe that they should received the sentences they deserve.

I believe that there is a systemic problem with the police department in Baltimore, as well as several other cities, but I also believe that that is only small part of the problems that these cities face. I don't believe that things will change anytime soon because the political corruption in the city and state, and enhanced by the politics in Washington DC.

One thing that has struck me the most is the groups who have benefited the most from all the rioting are the media and the white supremest.

It was unwise to either.

A. Arrest them at all if the preponderance of evidence suggests they are innocent.

or

B. Arrest them at this time and make make hay about it if the preponderance of evidence suggests guilt!

Either way, the authorities should have snuffed out the flames before throwing a Molotov cocktail.

Sad story when society loses confidence in the authorities that are charged with keeping peace in the land. Of course as long as we continue to exclude God from our government we can have no peace.

When the righteous are in authority the people rejoice when the wicked rule the righteous hide themselves.

For the cause of Christ

When the authorities roots are the klu Klux Klan, I highly doubt any good will come forth from them.

So ... killing two armed suspects who opened fire on an unarmed security guard with the likely intent to kill everyone inside the Garland community center who attended the Muhammad cartoon contest is "murder"?

Interesting take, blue. And, IMO, completely wrong.
