Government Still Out of Control

The recent murder-by-cop of Kathryn Johnston and the arrest (kidnapping) of Hollis Wayne Fincher are just two examples of government out of control. Make no mistake, government should be controlled. Tightly controlled. If you don't think the government agents plant whatever evidence they require to "justify" their murders and kidnappings, then you just are not paying attention. Then, when they get caught, the government wants to use the money stolen from the productive Americans to pay for their defense. Either that, or the "authorities" keep repeating the magic words "We found the shooting to be justified" or "we were following up on a tip" or some other nonsense and the people quickily forget about the victims. I do not believe in capital punishment except at the scene of the crime, at the hands of the intended victim or a rescuer, but the murderers of Kathryn Johnston should never again be free in society to hurt anyone else. "If it saves only one life...." I would rather she had become another Cory Maye than a martyr, but the reality is that anyone defending their home is a hero. The insanely evil "War on Drugs" and "War on Guns" keep piling up the bodies. When will it stop? When we make it stop. It is time to end the madness.
