"I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard Ravenhill

The fact that he happened to have marijuana in the car (unrelated to why he was pulled over) got brought up against him.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

And nobody deserves to be shot down for merely climbing through a broken window. While it is legal for a homeowner to do so if they felt that their life was endangered, this unarmed woman posed no threat to the armed trigger happy cop.

This is something to keep in mind the next time you wail about someone who had committed a crime getting shot and killed by a cop.
