How many times have you dined upon dead animal parts from Kosher veal?

Reared on a dairy farm back in the 60s, I find that the raising of Kosher veal to be a cruel and inhumane treatment of animals.

Is the same reason why Hugo Chavez “won” his “election” to be el grande caudillo….er “President” for life: He and his boys counted the votes.

One wonders who the jokers posting “Fair & square!” on websites are employed by, innit?

Sarkozy is married to Carla Bruni, you know?

He got the majority of votes.

Just because we in the US of A don’t like Putin doesn’t mean those in Russia feel the same way. People remember what it was like under Yeltsin, and they don’t want to return to that. In the 90s, Russia was labeled a “banana republic without the bananas”. But that would be putting it too kindly, because in banana republics workers at least get paid.

Those jokers shouting “fraud” in Russia are actually paid to do so by western interest groups, and the vast majority of Russian know this, and therefore don’t care about their opinions.

#27 Windy–Excellent comment. It has always bothered me that in some jurisdictions, murder of an LEO carries an enhanced penalty (e.g. death or no parole). No one’s life is worth more than another’s.

Where this law can really help, is to defeat the bogus charge of resisting, if you show insufficient respect, and don’t kiss their boots quickly enough.

I have what I believe is a better idea; a statute that explicitly limits forced entry to a very few, carefully limited situations where lives may be at stake. Screw ‘they might destroy evidence’. If that’s going to cripple your case, you probably shouldn’t be making that case in the first place. The problem is the large number of situation in which the Lawr feels justified in kicking somebody’s door in instead of ringing the doorbell and presenting a warrant. Cut that idiocy back, and the really smelly incidents should mostly dry up.

But I’m against laws against drugs, bookmaking, etc. in the first place.

Such a statute would improve the safety both law-abiding police officers and citizens alike, by deterring police conduct which would otherwise work to the detriment of both.

And yet they keep launching home invasions at night.

Which leads me to observe that just like almost any‘dangerous’ job, cops can quit at any time. Really. I mean, how many times were they actually begged by the taxpayer to take on that job? I would say that you would be very hard pressed to find many taxpayers who did so.

They don’t like their jobs, they can turn in that taxpayer-supplied uniform, badge and weapon and go work in a factory some place. Nothing like freedom of choice, huh?

Reminds me of a quote by Alexandr Solzhenitsyn, something along the lines of “Justice occurs very infrequently, and when it does occur, it is usually by accident.”

Lynching, like terror, is a tactic. Wars on Tactics always fail. But those who fight them get rich, rich, rich.

Screw the Civil Rights issue. The people involved should be charged with conspiracy to commit murder, using the State as the murder weapon. No, I’m not joking. This crap will continue until some weasel prosecutor is put on death row because he played fast and loose with somebody’s life.

I don’t know. At least a couple point out that this is going to be problemmatic for no-knock and other surprise raids. That is a perceptive point, regardless of whether one thinks it is a good or bad thing.

The part that makes me laugh are the ones that say that regcits always lose their civil claims against police for illegal searches which somehow magically means that there is a good remfor and deterrence against illegal searches. Actually if the citizens always lose the civil claims then that means there is NOT an effective remedy for those illegal searches.

More importantly, civil remedies are never good enough because real compensation is not possible, and the only way to keep the victim of the illegal search “whole” is to prevent the terror and humiliation of an illegal search. Of course, other poster(s) at policeone.com suggest that the police might just scale back their searches of homes. Heh heh.
