Cops...

Newlywed shot dead by cops in his yard

A story on CNN's website today. Can you imagine, the wife of this man, having her beloved killed on her wedding day? Her biggest day, her new life...she is widowed on the day she leaves her family to start a new life. And the shooter...cops....COPS....

You think it would be better if the groom had been killed by a thug instead?

Or if he was injured and left crippled on this day instead?

Of course, surely being mistaken shot in your yard by COPS 20 years after your marriage probably should be as big a deal. It's just more musical to die and be widowed on your wedding day. Which is why I lied so far...he didn't die on his wedding day. But he got married just a few days ago. Shot...bang bang...

By COPS...

Cops who were chasing burglar suspects...looks like the groom was in the wrong place at the wrong time. Cops shot without verifying his identity. But then, could they without risking their lives?

who are these cops anyway? Brings the question, how good are these cops? Are they men of highest virtue selected to police the country and enforce the law? Or are they just people who have few other job options. And what's going through their heads? Are they seeking action...do they love holding a gun...do they have fantasies of being in a battle...have 80s and 90s cop vs thug movies as their vision of their job? Can they be trusted and given a gun?

Are they neutral in matters such as race...?

What is their idea of justice...?

If cops can be armed...perhaps that's the best justification I have had so far of why owning a gun should be legal in the country. Because you don't know when you'll meet some idiot with a gun, and if guns are only available to cops, then that idiot might just be a cop. Except...you can't shoot a cop, so idiot cops are granted immunity from the bullets of righteous citizens. Bet most of you don't remember that Rambo was a idiot-cop shooter.

But then Rambo was fine...because after his psychotic jihad against the idiot cops, he was either living peacefully in another country or serving in the military. He wasn't gonna be around civilians or our streets posing a threat. Nah, he was killing those justified to be killed by his commanders, in battlefields. Idiot cops, should be promoted to the military...away from peaceful settlements...
