Tough shit. Get better control of your public servants or open up that check book!
Without knowing any other facts in the case firing an 18 year employee is not enough for you. The whole department, county government and every tax payer in it must be punished with million dollar fines for the actions of one man.
No injuries, no medical bills, no conspiracy to cover up or institutional failure. Call up the lawyers and the insurance company, someone got scared so a million dollar deal is in the works! We, the collective, must share equal responsibility for one rogue cop!
This is conservative thought? Sounds a lot like the “zero tolerance” policies at our schools. Kid straightens out a paper clip = automatic suspension. Cop makes a bone head move (even though he never fired a shot) and the county needs to pull out the check book.
Yeh I knew everything I needed to know when I heard DeKalb County.
But according to king barrack and the gun control fascist only police who are “well trained to handle firearms” should be allowed to own a gun. How can this be? Could his hindendness be wrong?

This time.
I think that if the citizens of any municipality anywhere do not put in a government that removes such nimrods from their law enforcement, then they deserve to lose huge chunks of financial wherewithal until that becomes a priority. If jealousy over the persons they were willing to trample on in their negligence hitting a windfall also helps them clean their filthy messes up then I am okay with that too.
If departments still routinely fired these dipshits without being drug through the courts we would not be having this conversation. They no longer do so because dipshits just like them employ these people. The taxpayers can change it if they so desire.
The voters have the power, so yeah, I am all for holding them responsible in a way they actually feel.
Sorry that connection between power and responsibility thing is so personally repugnant to you.
