I love stories that have a reasonably happy ending.

Happy Mother's Day !!

What reasonably happy ending? Are you sick? What's wrong with you?

No one deserves to die like that.

The arrogance of the Miller and Kenney family make me sick. It doesn't make it right that their kid shot at a police officer! What the hell is he doing with a gun any way. The arrogance of Bode wanting to antogonize McKay, he's just as sick as his cousin. I am ashamed that Bode Miller comes from NH. He's nothing to brag about.
I think the whole family are a bunch of losers and just because Officer McKay and Liko had a past with each other, it does't make it "OK" to kill someone!!!

No one is a winner from this..

He's saying the good out of it is that the gunman was taken out. There'll be no listening to his courtroom tales of how once in first grade his mom forgot to pack his favorite cookies and it made him so very sad...

TWO LIVES LOST, TWO FAMILIES SHATTERED. THERE ARE MOST LIKELY QUITE A FEW OPINIONS ON BOTH SIDES OF THESE MENS LIVES THAT CONTRADICT EACH OTHER. ONE MAN DOING HIS JOB, SHOT IN THE STREET, IN THE BACK LIKE A STRAY ANIMAL. ANOTHER MAN ENRAGED AND ARMED. THERE ARE PROCEDURES IN PLACE TO FOLLOW BY CIVILIANS WHEN INVOLVED IN A TRAFFIC STOP. ONE THING YOU DON'T DO IS LEAVE THE SCENE. REQUEST ANOTHER OFFICER, PULL INTO A WELL LIT AREA, REQUEST ADDITIONAL IDENTIFICATION. OFFICERS THAT APPROACH A VEHICLE DURING A STOP HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THEY WILL ENCOUNTER WHEN REACHING THE SUSPECT VEHICLE. ANTAGONIZING ANYONE WILL IN MANY CASES LEAD UP TO A POINT WHERE THINGS WILL TURN BADLY. THIS WAS AN ATROSCITY. POSSIBLY PREVENTABLE THROUGH NEGOTIATIONS. MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS GO OUT TO THOSE FAMILIES THAT ARE STUNNED AND IN PAIN. REMEMBER THE FEUD BETWEEN THE HATFIELDS AND THE MC COY'S? THAT DID NOT END WELL EITHER. THERE ARE ALWAYS ALTERNATIVE AND PEACEFUL WAYS TO PUT ASIDE DIFFERENCES.

There ought to be a law about comments in all-caps.

They're like a red flag to a bull and escalate comment conflict.

Damn, I had to put my hands over my ears.
I bet he'd be one to seek an alternitive, peaceful ending.
sure..

The cop new who he was pulling over and obviously had a violent past with the suspect who was errr speeding, alledgedly. Just another cop who thought because he had a gun and a badge he could go around messing with whomever he pleased. Do your job "Protect and Serve" and maybe stuff like this wont happen. To many cops out there just act like a-holes.

Here is the way this works.

If you are not a cop, you *have* to do what they say.
If you don't like it, then fill out an application, pass the physical, and become a cop.

If you have been granted a driver's licence and blue lights come on behind you, you are required to pull over. If you don't, you have identified yourself as a harmful presence in society-either to yourself or others...and BY LAW, the officer can pretty much do whatever (within the parameters of what the law says the officer can do..) they need to do to make society safe.

The happy ending here is that the piece of shit that shot our only line of defense in the civil sector got killed. As far as I am concerned it doesn't matter if the piece of shit was Nancy PLOsi's unwanted offspring.

wait a sec..

Why, I am falling for it again... Trying to explain something to irrational people. sry.

Aside from the family of this slain officer's sorrow, the sad part of this story is that apparantly the residents of New Hampshire are undecided as to whether or not the police have any value.

Kenney was told, in open court, that if McKay pulled him over, then Kenney had the right to ask for a different cop to handle the stop. How much of this story is not being told? Frankly, scumbag cops are even worse than scumbag civilians. Why? Because scumbag cops have fellow cops watching their six.

McKay was a scumbag cop and he received his just desserts.

Tom,

Are you a criminal? Does that explain your apparent hatred for a police officer that was shot in the back four times and then runover with an automobile?

Do us all a favor and either start carpooling with Michael Francis Wiley (see Donnah's "My Lead Foot")or try and do a drive off the next time you get pulled over.

But seriously, what the hell is wrong with you that you think McKay deserved this? What about his family? You must live some kind of miserable life to be so filled with hate that you find McKay's murder to have been "just desserts".

"McKay was a scumbag cop and he received his just desserts."

Some people just have problems with authority figures. And it's always the authority figure - not them. Always.

I hope the samaritan isn't sued. An ambitious lawyer could make life difficult for him.

It's always the cops' fault, just like it's always America's fault.

It's always somebody else's fault.

This country is in such deep trouble in that regard it's friggin ludicrous.

If I was on patrol, with a standing order not to stop a certain person..I would probably be working in New Hampshire. There, THAT explains it.

If a civilian is that troublesome in most counties in Georgia, they just bar them from that district..forever. Not the other way around. Personally I like the way we treat our cop-killers in Florida. We train our officers by forcing them to fight a gator to save a civilian's life.
Want proof ??
