Assuming your lack of sarcasm, it's this sort of
that
s things up for the rest of us who want an expanded application of the death penalty and a streamlined process with fewer appeals.
I know it's hard, but we gotta stop scaring the soccer moms when it's avoidable
More funamentally, the disgusting anti-American sentiment of this post makes me want to put this bluntly. Get it through your head: the same glorious Bill of Rights that allows me to worship whatever I want, say and print whatever I want, and own whatever type of gun I want (all great rights, btw) also allows me to run like Hell from the cops just because I don't like cops. Not having to give a damn what any government actor, be they a liberal public school principal, a nanny state federal legislator, or some pissant, thinks (s)he is God with a badge small town cop, thinks or feels about what you've done--unless your act has been made illegal by a law sucessfully tested against the Constitution--is one of the great things about America.
I am equally confounded by the Left wing pansies and the Right wing wing-nuts who each, abet in different ways, think it's a great American ideal for self-important government functionaries to have broad discretionary authority.
