East Palo Alto Cop: Shoot a Gun Owner, Get '2 Weeks Off!!!'

Now we see it manifest itself in police state elitism that's chilling--particularly the implication that a citizen breaking no laws can be murdered and the state perpetrator will be rewarded with paid time off. And the rest, who are intimidated into defenselessness, are to be laughed at and held in contempt by armed enforcers. [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner looks at an unmasked "Only One."

I fear that this will pretty much guarantee that the next cop killing will be done by someone who has given up on the justice system, and declared war.

Croalus, uou're under the impression that this hasn't been happening already?

There is an old Irish prayer that asks God to please turn our enemies' hearts, and if that cannot be done, then to turn our enemies' ankles, so that we will know them by their limping.

That detective has definitely limped.

Now, if that detective ever discharges his weapon in the general direction of anyone, would you reasonably question his motives?
If you are his supervisor, would you count on him to be disciplined enough to not shoot indiscriminately, as the detective obviously does not believe there are any negative consequences?
