Misplaced sympathy

I’ve been reading comments sent in by citizens concerning death squads, excessive force and brutality being used by the police.

I wonder which side of the law these people are on, these same people who are so concerned that they may be framed or shot by the police and about the number of persons killed by the police.

I wonder if they have similar views and comments about the number of innocent citizens-men, women and children-who have been robbed, raped and brutally murdered.

What about families who are terrorised and threatened with death to keep quiet by these would be gang members and bandits? Please share your thoughts about that, please do.

I for one applaud the police in their actions taken to rescue the young man who was kidnapped. The time has come to fight fire with bigger fire and wipe out this minority of no-good delinquents who are attempting to spoil our blessed nation.
