Remember when peaceful settlements were an option.
Before the threat of deadly force was allowed for all situations.
Some want us to believe cops are a higher form of civilian, even NY has a law which gives a automatic life without parole in the killing of a 1st responder, yet us peasants don't get the same justice when one of us is killed.

Crazed, cop hating, anti govt, GunHuggers???? Sounds like a few on this board!
Crazed?
For believing that a government should treat Americans with dignity and respect, not as potential threats.
This is what you nimrods fought for?
You glorious bastardds fought to protect people's rights?
All citizens are treated as criminals first, until proof of innocence.
Even up to the point of taking a person's life, legally, if they don't comply
Even in states that have banned the death penalty.
You truly believe that people who don't share your views of right or wrong regarding killing innocent people and being a necessary and acceptable behavior, are crazed.
You don't seem to have a problem with good guns(government guns, the military, law enforcement,...) killing the innocent, but bad guns owned by self protecting Americans, are a threat that must be taken under government control.

The State of Texas--Appeal from 183rd District Court of Harris County /**/ NUMBER 13-03-385-CR COURT OF APPEALS THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG _______________________________________________________ SAM ABUGALBOUSH, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee. _______________________________________________________ On appeal from the 183rd District Court of Harris County, Texas. _______________________________________________________
MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Hinojosa, Ya ez, and Garza Opinion Per Curiam Appellant, Sam Abugalboush, attempts to appeal a conviction for aggravated robbery. The trial court has certified that this is a plea-bargain case, and the defendant has NO right of appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2).
On January 12, 2004, this Court notified appellant s counsel of the trial court s certification and ordered counsel to: (1) review the record; (2) determine whether appellant has a right to appeal; and (3) forward to this Court, by letter, counsel s findings as to whether appellant has a right to appeal, or, alternatively, advise this Court as to the existence of any amended certification.
On February 13, 2004, counsel filed a letter brief with this Court. Counsel s response fails to establish either that the certification currently on file with this Court is incorrect or that appellant otherwise has a right to appeal.
The Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure provide that an appeal must be dismissed if the trial court s certification does not show that the defendant has the right of appeal. Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d); see Tex. R. App. P. 37.1, 44.3, 44.4. Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed. Any pending motions are denied as moot.

1. He Made Statements About Committing ‘Mass Acts of Murder’ Suspect identified in PSP shooting as Eric Matthew Frein — Eric Deabill (@ericdeabill) September 16, 2014
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports that cops think Frein has a grudge against the state police. State Police Commissioner Frank Noonan said at a media briefing:
This fella is extremely dangerous. We have no idea where he is in the community. He is described as a survivalist … he has made statements about killing law enforcement as well as committing mass acts of murder. He has strong feelings about law enforcement, seems to be very angry with things that go on in our society. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. He’s a ‘Survivalist’
Frein was described by a state police spokesman as a “survivalist.” According to CBS Pittsburgh, Frein is a resident of Canadensis, Pennsylvania. Until recently he had lived with his parents, police said. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Frein Is Heavily Armed, Has Military Weapons Training & ‘Doesn’t Miss’ .308 AK-47 Rifle similar to the one allegedly used by Frein to kill a state cop. (Flickr/Stephen Z) Police say Frein has at least two guns. The Pocono Record reports that one of the guns is a .308 rifle that may look like a AK-47. That’s the gun he allegedly used to kill Corporal Dickson.
According to a criminal complaint (read the full document in Fact 5), police interviewed his father, also named Eric Frein, a 28-year military veteran and former Army major. The father said he’d trained his son is shooting skills and that the son was a better shooter than he and “doesn’t miss.”
Police think Frein stalked the state police barracks in Blooming Grove, picking the perfect spot for an ambush. At a press conference before Frein was named as a suspect, Lt. Col. George Bivens called the shooter a “coward” and vowed he would be arrested.
At that briefing it was said by officials that they believed the shooter may have had military training in firearms.
4. There’s a Massive Manhunt Under Way & a $75,000 Reward PSP: Shell casings found at Eric Frein's home in Canadensis that match shooting
Frein has been charged with first-degree murder, first-degree murder of a law enforcement officer, assault of a law enforcement officer, reckless endangerment, discharge of a firearm into an occupied structure, criminal attempt of murder in the first degree, criminal attempt of murder of a law enforcement officer, and possession of an instrument with criminal intent.
CBS Pittsburgh reports some 200 officers are searching the dense forest in the area surrounding the barracks.
CrimewatchPA reports there is a $75,000 reward for information leading to his capture.
Frein is 6-foot-1, 165 pounds, with blue eyes and brown hair.
Anyone with information about his whereabouts is asked to call the State Police Tip Line at 866-326-7256 or Pennsylvania Crime Stoppers at 800-4PA-TIPS.
5. Cops Found ‘Military Gear’ & ‘Information Concerning Foreign Embassies” at His Home
Frein’s car, a green Jeep Cherokee, was found at 8:30 a.m. Monday, September 15, about 2 miles from the police barracks where the shooting took place. It was partially submerged in a pond, with windows open.
According to the criminal complaint (above), the car is registered to Eric and Deborah Frein.
LehighValleyLive reports Frein lives in the 300 Block of Seneca Lane in Canadensis, about 20 miles from the ambush. According to the complaint, Frein’s exact address is 308 Seneca Lane.
Police searched the home, where, according to the complaint, they found his Pennsylvania driver’s license, his Social Security card, his game commission range permit, camouflage face paint, flash lights, a black hooded sweatshirt, two empty rifle cases, “military gear” and “various information concerning foreign embassies.”
Accused Cop Killer Eric Frein Stars in War Reenactor Documentary BY ABC News Radio | September 23, 2014 Home › News › ABC News › National News iStock/Thinkstock iStock/Thinkstock
(NEW YORK) — The filmmaker of a new documentary about a Vietnam War reenactment said he was shocked to learn that one of his actors was Eric Frein, the subject of a massive Pennsylvania manhunt, and said he had sensed that some reenactors were on the “edge of violence.”
The dragnet for Frein, wanted for allegedly shooting two state troopers at the Blooming Grove barracks on Sept. 12, has plagued eastern Pennsylvania for the past 12 days. Schools in the Pocono Mountain School District reopened on Tuesday, but students were kept indoors and some bus routes were canceled. Frein is believed to be hiding out in the woods near his home in Canadensis, Pa.
“I think we always had a fear that one of the people we were following — because they had so much weaponry — could do something very dangerous,” filmmaker Patrick Bresnan of Austin, Texas, told ABC News Tuesday.
Bresnan, 38, said he and his wife, also a filmmaker, have been busy all summer getting their documentary Vietnam Appreciation Day ready for film festival submissions. The documentary follows a group of war reenactors in rural Pennsylvania, including Frein, preparing for a public show.
Frein and his friends were “very serious about the job,” said Bresnan, who grew up in Pennsylvania and spent time there while filming.
“They were at another level,” he said. “Their collections were almost fetishistic, obsessing over details on uniforms and weaponries.”
But he sensed how the hobby could lead to violence.
“Many people use reenacting as a way to justify owning weapons,” Bresnan said, adding that many of the reenactors he met were people who failed to get into the military.
“A lot of these guys try to act in History Channel episodes as extras, and they get paid $150 so they justify hoarding and collecting weaponry through their reenacting. That’s like the crown jewel for a lot of these guys — getting to portray a Nazi or a soldier on the History Channel.”
Frein is not a main character in Vietnam Appreciation Day, but the film “is a window into Eric’s world,” said Bresnan, who described the suspected murderer as “goofy but dark.”
Filming wrapped in 2011, and Bresnan hopes the film will appear on the next festival circuit. The application deadline for the Sundance Film Festival is next week, he added.
Frein is accused of killing Cpl. Bryon Dickson and critically wounding another trooper when police say he opened fire at the barracks, and then fled into the woods. He’s a survivalist with experience living off the land and a skilled shooter, police said.
His father, a retired Army major, said two weapons were missing from his home: a .308 with a scope and an AK-47 assault rifle. Police scouring the woods have found an AK-47 and ammunition that they believe Frein either abandoned or had stashed.

Has anybody ever noticed that 30,000 gun deaths in the United States is a Crisis for Democrats and MSNBC, but hundreds of thousands of dead and wounded Iraqis in an illegal war, and it's business as usual?
