The hostage taking, and killings, happened 40 miles north of me. They waited for the guy to come out after he got hungry, and he is now sitting in prison. They didn’t lob tear gas.

So you are fine with police being judge, jury, and executioners if they feel the need? This isn’t about killing a suspect to stop them from harming others. They had the guy holed up in a house isolated on a mountain. He wasn’t going anywhere.

Again, I don’t care that he died. I do care about the two standards of justice in play. In short, hurt a cop or their immediate family, and you die. Hurt a non cop, and they might go after you, if they feel like it.

Aren't we discussing the Dorner incident?

Who was executed besides an unarmed young woman and her fiance?

This isn’t about killing a suspect to stop them from harming others.

Are you claiming he hadn't killed others and intended to kill more?

Those of us who never have should be immortal? Murder is against the law and when you start shooting at cops resisting arrest, you've made the choice to most likely die.
