CLAY COUNTY, FL — Jailers taunted a young man as he begged for his life, strapped to a restraint chair and suffocating on pepper spray. The death of the teen was officially ruled a homicide, although the state later concluded that no one should be punished.
“They were calling him a Jesus freak, a God freak…[teasing him] about his religious beliefs: ‘God can’t’ help you now. God can’t give you a pencil.’”

You all have the power to stop this crap in its tracks. One such protest is all it would take!
You forefathers are spinning in their graves.

Yet another example of why US citizens have the 2nd amendment .....

Are you suggesting that people rise up and kill these officers and possibly the prosecutor who refused to act???
Are you suggesting that the people arm themselves and then threaten to kill the Local Politicians if nothing is done???

No comment on the main issue, but are 19 year-olds "kids" all the time, or just when we need to step up the emotion level?

Another point however is just how are you suggesting the 2nd amendment would solve this exactly???

Because having a gun wouldn't have saved this kid. He was locked up first of all. Second, he shouldn't and wouldn't be allowed to own a gun in his mental condition anyway.
Also, do you think those involved deserve a trial first???
I'm just curious why it's the 2nd amendment you use as your single piece of evidence that would have somehow helped this situation???

I see what you're saying and agree. So what happened between then and now if that method worked so well??? I mean if that method was so great there would be no reason to change it, so obviously that method also had problems.
It doesn't take long to see exactly why our "American Experiment" was done and structured a certain way with the hope of enacting a True Form of Justice by Law in an attempt to remove the old ways. Man's laws of course won't ever be perfect all the time, but today it's pretty plain to see that what we have created is not Just by any definition.
Is it even possible to correct something like it at all??? Or is this Juggernaught simply too massive and gained too much momentum to slow or stop at this point???
