    don't know where you are headed with the right to bear arms line, but the cop was not killed with a gun.

    I'm saying that the constitution is a ridiculously outdated piece of paper.

    I hate the NRA. But the constitution says we have the right to bear arms, so therefore thousands of kids are killed in guns accidents. The British aren't coming anymore, we don't need to be allowed to have guns unless there is a good reason for you to have one.

    Yes, I am all for innocent until proven guilty. I'm also not going to cry when a cop killer or a child molester doesn't get their day in court.

    Over the years, this department has often gotena bum wrap. It's my home county and I actually came really close to trying to join the police force there, while a guy I used to wrestle with in his actually did. But in this case, someone just went way too far.

    I'm conservative, but I'm very anti-gun.

    Not sure what some people don't get about "INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY."

    This department has a history of this shit going back to Terrance Johnson. Bad rap? C'mon. The redneck cops in PG county can't handle the fact that they are a minority.

    Not sure how close you are to the situation. But I figure my perspective is pretty sound. Especially with the shit they have to put up with.

    Your lack of reading comprehension skills is truly astounding.

    All due respect, their questionable "confessions" a few years back didn't exactly help their reputation.

    And no one's ever been falsely accused of child molestation either. Too bad all those people in the 80s and early 90s weren't killed in prison before their exonerations and overturned convictions. Could have saved a lot of embarrassment to prosecutors by just strangling the defendants.

    They must've thrown the guy in the bad-cop section of jail and let them go to town. That's the only reason I can think of that this was allowed to happen. Very unusual, because cop-killers are at the top of the food chain in gen-pop — if they somehow avoid death row.
