Hmm... theft, UCW, drug possession.... why in the world would the DA be resistant to prosecuting that?Tommy B wrote:Finally, and to me, this is the most awful part of the story, the district attorney does not want to press charges on these individuals.
As for the conversation earlier regarding "theft" - my initial thoughts were along the lines of, "If the cop was crooked, he would steal the whole gun and not just the ammo." Not sure why there is so much distrust and animosity expressed towards LEOs lately. Seems like we would be more sympathetic to them since we're also in a group (armed citizens) that is also judged by the worst members - no matter how small a percentage of the population they are. Bad cops need to get punished hard - but we shouldn't jump to the conclusion that a cop is crooked without exploring all the possibilities.
