Kang and his partner received the Medal of Valor for the shooting in 2004. [More]You know, the one where he shot a bystander in the foot and the bystander's claim was then "dismissed without merit."
Kang...Kang...where I have I heard that name before...?
I guess if I had the luck o' the "Only Ones," I might feel like I could go around busting people's jaws, too. After all, good luck to an "average citizen" who wants to also carry a gun in Hawthorne.
Those of us who have been in a position to make that decision know the risks we assumed. And if we had been caught, no one in authority would have called us valorous for choosing self-preservation and principle over fear of punishment and the ruin it would bring to ourselves and our families. We'd have been called gun criminals. And we would have been considered lucky if a broken jaw was all we suffered.

Uh huh, riiiight. This one cop broke a man's neck, broke another's jaw, and shot a bystander. Great job, but just who keeps the streets safe from him?
All of which caused claims to be paid to the victims of this man. Uh huh, those claims were paid out of a sense of generosity, right? Not because this prick did anything wrong, right?
