The Free Press notes that all of Holtzclaw's victims were black, which means the U.S. Department of Justice could investigate the case as a civil rights matter.

The Oklahoma City Fraternal Order of Police is still supporting Holtzclaw pending the results of an investigation. The organization released a statement explaining that, "Officers often find themselves unfairly targeted by all types of allegations."

Holtzclaw's family and friends have set up a Facebook page, "Justice for Daniel Holtzclaw." Supporters criticized his extremely high bail amount of $5 million.

If only all government workers were unionized.

No doubt legalizing weed would solve this problem.

I think shooting the guy would solve the problem. Preceded or followed by disbanding the police union. Scum of the earth. Especially when you consider that he probably could have just asked and gotten a 10% response rate.

Franklin Roosevelt in 1937 wrote:"... Meticulous attention should be paid to the special relationships and obligations of public servants to the public itself and to the government. All Government employees should realize that the process of collective bargaining, as usually understood, cannot be transplanted into the public service. It has its distinct and insurmountable limitations ... The very nature and purposes of Government make it impossible for ... officials ... to bind the employer ... The employer is the whole people, who speak by means of laws enacted by their representatives ...

"Particularly, I want to emphasize my conviction that militant tactics have no place in the functions of any organization of government employees. Upon employees in the federal service rests the obligation to serve the whole people ... This obligation is paramount ... A strike of public employees manifests nothing less than an intent ... to prevent or obstruct ... Government ... Such action, looking toward the paralysis of Government ... is unthinkable and intolerable."

So is Holtzclaw guilty until proven innocent?

I'll put this as cordially as possible.

You idiot!

Of course there are things legalizing pot won't cure. It won't, for example, cure human nature.

The prohibition of pot and alcohol both were attempts by progressives to do just that, by government fiat at that.

All it can do is cost, it can not be of net benefit.

Every pot smoker I know is a useless parasite sucking on the government teat.

I think you are the one having the difficulty grasping human nature.
