Anytime the police remove people who demonstrate a disregard to peace and the sanctity of human life from the street, either temporarily, jail, or permanently, death, I view it as a success!

And what happens when it's the police who "demonstrate a disregard to peace and the sanctity of human life"? Who is going to remove them "from the street"? Or should we just let them go because they break the law while wearing badges?

When the rule of law applies only to "civilians" it is known as tyranny.

I'm not saying the cops did anything wrong in Waco or in Ferguson or in Baltimore. I don't know. However, I think it is foolish to trust government workers simply because they are in positions of authority.

The focus needs to remain on “this” happening...rival war gangs meeting in a public place on a Mall Site certainly warranted any police coverage necessary.

The authorities had for weeks been attempting to ‘prevent’ this meeting for all knew the likely hood of violence was probable as history of these war gangs have proved time and again.

It isn't a matter of trusting authorities...it's a matter of working with what you got in hopes of a favorable outcome. This event could not have played out any other way then it did without the bikers and the owner of this restaurant cooperating with the police...they didn't and here we are.
