I feel like if I were the family member / spouse of the officer that got shot (or many others who have also been killed) by the dregs of human society who are just continually released with no consequences...I feel like it would be hard to not take justice into my own hands, since it seems clear the justice system is now just a system. It doesn't feel like it dispenses justice anymore.
I do wonder how long people will put up with it. I understand the system does not want us to perform street justice, nor is it necessarily a good thing, and even Biblically speaking, it says "vengeance is mine, I will repay says the Lord" instructing us not to seek vengeance, but it would still be hard I believe. Very hard.
I hate seeing these posts where officers lose their life to scumbags who ought to be in prison but are not due to our system.
