It is just more proof...painfully deadly proof in this case...that the so-called citizenry is incapable of recognizing what truly threatens it from what merely is a minor nuisance...the entire social compact and (broad based, not political) collective intelligence is inverted...wrong is right, evil is good, stupid is smart...it is a painfully stark illustration of how totally f u c k e d up we have allowed things to go. It also heightens the rational counterbalance of shooting uniformed goons on first sight before they can do the same to you...as we see (in guilty defendants going free - criminals & cops) the jury system is a total crap-shoot in Latter Day America...it is still better to be judged by 12 village idiots than carried by 6 relatives and friends...
Citizens have a right not to be murdered by criminals or rogue law enforcement clowns...and if it means firing first...well, too many cases like this brought it about!
