I hope the police officer that was hit will make a full recovery. Also, the 17 y.o. girl driving that car has got to be traumatized.

FYI - for those of you following the Winston-Salem police officer's death this past Thursday - there was an arrest made last night around 11. Thank God. That poor family has been through alot - my heart goes out to that family and esp. his two daughters. I hope for a swift trial and justice for this family.

All the negative comments are horrible, but no, I just thought they were silly people that had to complain about something. I wasn't really concerned with their political preferences. It didn't matter what they were - their comments were sad.

How and why does this matter? What the heck does politics have to do with this. I believe you guys are missing the point entirely. I give up. I guess I just can't see past the people to their poltical perferances.

Thank God we have people like you guys to point it out for us! Sarcasim totally implied.

Phoebe - don't you pay attention to what group always complains about police or military doing their jobs? Then turns around and wants votes from the very people they create with their programs? That's what 5511 is talking about. The mindset that is out there. The mindset that makes one "wonder" why the officer did his job because "the crime was to petty and he should have let him go." Dems don't like to be identified so easily by just listening to what they say. They like to be hidden.

Personally I don't give a crap what the guy was. He did something wrong and that's that. Rep. or Dem alike. You mess up and get a warrant you butt should go to jail. Or can I commit a crime and claim I am one party or the other to get off. I didn't realize that was a law.
