They really went way over the edge with this lad. Just a d--- shame that they can treat folks like this.

B2Tall,
I Enjoyed Your Resonce, That was Great !!!
Wearing a blue suit and black-rimmed glasses, Sgt. Corrigan looked unemotional after the hearing that ended his two-year ordeal. Outside the courtroom, I asked him how he felt. I expected some vindication or, at least, relief. Instead, he was weighed down by the losses and trauma of the experience. “For court, I put on a face showing I’m okay,” he said. “Overall, this has broken me.”
“Then the cop said to me, ‘I don’t have time to play this constitutional bu!!sh!t with you. We’re going to break your door in, and you’re going to have to pay for a new door.’”
If this group of traitors remains in office the shame is on our heads.
If Obama is returned to office we must have the dumbest and most uninformed electorate in the history of the world.
The author of the piece in the OP, Emily Miller, is herself a true 2nd Amendment warrior. Not trying to distract from the subject of her story, it's unconscionable what happened to Sgt. Corrigan, but y'all should follow all of Emily's writings with as much interest and instinct for self-preservation as our Colonist ancestors followed Paul Revere and his contemporaries. She is truly the sounder of alarms. Over the last couple of years she has made it her life's mission to expose the tyrannical City Fathers of DC who have done everything in their power to make the Heller decision insignificant to their uninterrupted oppressive authority over their citizenry. This is her facing down one of them while voicing her support for a bill that would make registering a gun in DC just a tiny bit less untenable:
In Part 1 of the Corrigan series, this quote really got to me:
That right there is the point. Breaking law-abiding citizens, even war heroes (Corrigan earned a Bronze Star in Iraq), is what oppressive laws are all about. Make the consequences of defying tyranny too great to bear with your own self intact, and the tyrants have the complacent lemming-like populace that makes their tyranny easy to impose.
In Part 2 of the Corrigan piece, Emily quotes Sgt. Corrigan quoting one of the arresting team-leaders thusly:
And that is exactly what the Constitution is to these thugs; bu!!sh!t. This meme is hardly unique to DC or Chicago or NYC. It may be more or less prevalent in one jurisdiction over another as it relates to a given issue, like guns for instance, but the violation of constitutional rights is a daily and pervasive occurrence across this country on a wide variety of issues such as 1st Amendment to 4th Amendment to 5th Amendment violations, all of which were likewise violated in Sgt. Corrigan's case plus his 2nd Amendment rights.
This kind of stuff is much more common than most people will even allow themselves to see, even when thousands of hours of video and gallons of ink have been documenting its pervasiveness for decades. Sgt. Corrigan did the best thing(s) he could've done, especially not giving permission to enter his home or telling them anything other than asking them not to hurt his dog. Most average citizens believe the pap about Officer Friendly being trustworthy and only being there to help. They are there to control, that's it. Believe otherwise at your own peril.

This entire story absolutely disgusts me. :bad:
To see how our out of control 'Gubbament' treats 'Law Abiding' gun owning Citizens and Veterans is the height of hypocrisy & truly PATHETIC! :angry:
This is no longer the country that our forefathers fought and died for i.m.h.o. :hang3:

DC is a third world country. A banana republic is another fitting description.WOW. Reading that story you would think you are reading about events in some third world country with a dictatorial government, not the capital city of the United States of America.
If you have heard or understand what Germany 1930, brownshirts, Hitler, Goebbels and the rest of these fascists were all about and you compare them to the piece of garbage in the whitehouse and his trampling of everything this country is about, is this treatment really hard to understand?
