So Does The House Of Representatives Care About Unconstitutional Police Actions?

I see that you’ve read my commentary, along with that of my commenters. So tell us. Do you really care if we live in a police state now? Do you care enough to stop it?
There’s that thing of the fourth amendment, the second amendment, the Castle doctrine which is embedded in English and American law, and on and on I could go.
So do you?

I care. Our esteemed congress? I doubt they even know/care. I was on a social media site this past weekend and the majority of commenters on this particular instance of murder by cop was being recognized by a minority of commenters. Most were quick to decry the actions of the swatter (who it has since been discovered has done this around 100 times.) said dirtbag also was determined not to turn himself in, even though he acknowledged that would be the moral thing to do, but he was too scared to do that.
Back to the commenters – this community on imgur are largely 20somethings and most could not bring themselves to see the cops as guilty. Most defended the cop – what if he had a gun? How is the cop supposed to know who the perp was (my fav cognitive dissonance example in the thread – I retorted that it’s their job to know who the threat is, not shoot 1st in the cause of officer safety.) As you stated previously – the citizens have been brainwashed to accept,any justification from the media/cops when they are so clearly in the wrong. I’m taking this up with local gov reps I know to see what our local PD stance is on things like this.
