A paranoid trigger happy cop who shot an unarmed motorcyclist in the back after he cooked up a fantasy the biker was attempting to pull a gun on him should not have been held to account under an anti-gun law mandating extra punishment for use of a gun during the commission of a crime, because despite the law as passed saying it applied to everyone, it should only apply to commoners, so says the majority on the Ohio Supreme Court. From Cleveland.com: COLUMBUS, Ohio -- The Ohio Supreme Court ruled Wednesday that a specification in the law that provides stiffer penalties for people who use a gun in commission of a crime cannot be applied to a police officer convicted of wrongdoing while performing his duty.One dissenting Justice, Judith Lanzinger, cut to the heart of the issue: "Police officers are human. We know that any human being, whether a police officer, a judge, or a priest, can commit an offense and be an 'offender,'"she wrote. "The law must apply to all or it applies to none."Unfortunately, the other costumed bureaucrats disagreed. The officer's case is now going to return to a trial court, he is likely to face a new trial, the gun charges will not apply. |
