Sonoma County D.A.: No criminal charges for sheriff's deputy in Andy Lopez shooting

[reddread]

24. until we can randomly stop and search Law Enforcement vehicles for hidden weapons/"evidence"

we are at the mercy of their ability to follow the rules that they use to protect themselves.
One of the most interesting tidbits I came across on a connecting flight from SLC in one of those
little bitty planes, in the aftermath of a RAFT of local cop killings, was a fellow whose son in law was a
local cop. He said that Jerry Dyer, our unshakable Chief of Police (after a long line of fleeing office holders, including the fellow
who oversaw the MOVE bombings in Philly) had (DIG THIS!) THREATENED TO FIRE THE NEXT COP WHO KILLED SOMEONE.
Pretty elegant solution to a problem. Hasnt been nearly that many since, in my recall.
Of course, there was the summary execution of the fellow they tracked down who made the mistake of winging a cop.
Yeah, that justice system is something worth dedicating your life to, isnt it?
As uppity as lawyers can be, (nothing personal) I can only feel just a little sorry for those childish folks trying to play
with a broken toy.
