We're the Only Ones Able-Bodied Enough

On October 24, the Houston Police Department announced the results of its yearlong investigation into the shooting death of Brian Claunch, a mentally ill double amputee killed by an officer last September after refusing to drop a pen. HPD cleared the officer, Matthew Marin, of any wrongdoing. [More]
Apparently because they couldn't prove he knew it was wrong...

If Mr. Claunch had a 6 lb dog on his lap at the time, he'd have been machine gunned to death.

Little dogs and writing pens cause fear of death for many police officers.
