We're the Only Ones Guilty Enough

Thanks to a jury in Ottawa Hills, Ohio, former police officer Thomas White is facing up to 11 years behind bars: plenty of time to think about the unarmed motorist he paralyzed with an unprovoked bullet more than one year ago. [More]
I still think had the situation been reversed, a lot more than 11 years would be at stake...

Wanna bet his sentence is all served on probation?

Quote from the article: "McCloskey and his companion sped away from an intersection as the officer pulled in behind them, leading White to believe the men were running from him. "

Well hell, there ya have it, boys! They was runnin'! You never know what these damned civilians are gonna do. You gotta be ready to defend yer life! Its Officer safety!

Hell, if that damned civilian didn't obey the command, then I say the nice Officer did the right thing! He went home at the end of his shift didn't he?
