SandBoxBlogs: Tree of Mamre "“Bohemian Rhapsody”, As Sung By A Drunk, In The Back Of A Police Car (Video)"
After watching this video will you ever degrade a patrol cop for loss of patience with the human equation?

SandBoxBlogs: Tree of Mamre "Word to Conservatives: Do Not Condemn Yourself By What You Approve"
John Scotus:
"If a policeman gets into a fight with a man who is unarmed and shoots and kills him, then in most cases the policeman will be punished quite severely. You simply cannot use lethal force against an unarmed man, even if he is beating you up. Now, many people in many jurisdictions are inclined to give the police a break on this issue, as generally, people in the US are pro-police. However, unless the policeman is able to prove that he honestly thought his life to be in danger or he would suffer great bodily harm, the policeman is in deep kimchi, as my father used to say. In the vast majority of cases, the policeman must have a reasonable belief that the man had a gun or a knife, and was intending to use it, in order to escape blame.
Imagine two men in a bar fight. One man gets the better of the other, and so the other man takes out a gun and shoots and kills him. This usually will result in a manslaughter if not a murder charge. Shooting an unarmed man is simply not done, as you rarely if ever have a reasonable expectation that he will kill you or cause you great bodily harm. Fear of getting beaten up or bruised is not enough to justify homicide. Take your lumps and have someone call an ambulance for you, but don’t draw a gun and expect that you will get off scot-free.
While we must decry the political grandstanding of President Obama and other Democratic rabble rousers, along with any tendency of some towards vigilantism, some conservatives have simply crossed the line on the matter of Trayvon Martin. The facts, as they are widely known, are that George Zimmerman called 911 about someone he thought was suspicious. The 911 operator–representing law enforcement–told him the police would handle it and advised him not to pursue or interact with the man. Zimmerman ignored this order...." (Read more? Click title)

SandBox Comments: Tree of Mamre "Holder Defends Himself: Misleading Congress and Lying to Congress Are Two Completely Different Things"
Since when does the highest law enforcement officer and prosecutor in the nation get to use legalese tactics during the course of his job?
If he was not a prosecutor as well then law enforcement discretion, maybe.
Holder has never even bothered to pick up the phone to Brian Terry's family.

SandBox Comments: Tree of Mamre/John Scotus "The ATF’s “Collateral Damage”: 2 Federal Agents and 300 Civilians Sacrificed to Make the Case for Gun Control"
"Operation Fast and Furious was an ATF initiative to allow–indeed, encourage–the purchase of AK-47s and .50 caliber rifles by proxies (straw purchasers) for Mexican drug gangs, and then to let these guns to be taken over the border into Mexico without making any attempt to interdict or trace them, even though both the flow into and the possession of these guns in Mexico is illegal. According to the Mexican government, at last count 300 people have been murdered in Mexico as a result of the guns allowed to walk in Operation Fast and Furious. In addition, two US Federal Officers, including Border Patrol agent Brian Terry, have been murdered with Fast and Furious weapons.
Since the ATF is legally compelled to interdict straw purchases and stop the illegal flow of weapons into Mexico, Operation Fast and Furious was not just unethical and short-sighted: It was illegal. ATF and DOJ memos released earlier this year directly state that the bureaucrats and agents involved expected that there would be “collateral damage” (i.e., unnecessary deaths) as a result of Operation Fast and Furious. Thus, effectively, Operation Fast and Furious was an illegal conspiracy to aid and abet murder. The yet unanswered questions are who approved Operation Fast and Furious, and why it was approved to begin with...."

SandBox Comments: Tree of Mamre/John Scotus "Holder Refuses to Apologize to the Family of Brian Terry (Fast & Furious)"
A must watch video of US AG Eric Holder. Click title.
Thank you to blogger John Scotus for this post and passing forward such a revealing statement from Holder.
"This is US Attorney General Eric Holder being questioned by Senator John Cornyn regarding the murder of US Border Patrol agent Brian Terry with the use of a gun which was allowed to be sold to a Mexican drug gang in Operation Fast and Furious.
Of course Holder refuses to apologize: He is a lawyer, and so he would view such an apology as an admission of guilt.
Indeed, since Justice Department memos indicated that they expected Fast and Furious to result in “collateral damage”, an apology by Holder would in fact be very much an admission of guilt.
It is time for Holder to come clean and resign."
