I recommend not advocating lethal combat/shooting/whatever on this site with police officers. I certainly wouldn't recommned that for my kids. Righteous lawsuits are so much more better. One can strongly object without getting violent (and losing).

Can you show me where anyone advocated that? The way people are being beaten and tased lately, one can die while being detained with minimal resistance.

I understand your viewpoint. Neville Chamberlain would have agreed with you.

I already signed a blank check once to protect those rights.

And? Are you going to fight?

Yep, If a LEO wants to do that to me he is going to have to cuff hands and legs or tase me into submission.

That is a hill I will die on.

Two women were digitally raped by officers under color of law and there were next to nothing of consequences for the offenders. There is nothing to stop this from happening again to me or to my daughters.

As has been alluded to, there is precious little I can do to stop it. At least if an unbadged criminal attacks me I can fight them off. If a criminal with a badge (which is what i consider these two officers to be)decides to rape me I must stand still and let it happen. Then even if it is brought to light those who attacked me violently (rape is violent even undercor of law) will get away with two months of lost salary as a punishment because someone else told her to do it! How is this justice? How is this reassuring to the rest of us women that we will not be raped and our rapist let go.

My eight year old would know better than to give me that excuse (but johnny told me to hit susie) for anything. I am disgusted and very upset and my confidence in DPS is SEVERELY shaken.

I could respect the grand jury (though I do not understand how they accepted that excuse), but what I cannot abide is that this officer who was willing to violate two women in a most disturbing fashion will be back on the beat.


We think we are so sophisticated in our justice system, but even in far more brutal times representatives of the govt that raped people in good standing with the gov't faced justice.
