Why don't people want the law applied? Under "Deprivation of Rights Under Color of Law", Officer A and Sergeant are liable for the death penalty, why does no one want it applied? Because they are cops and cops are above the law?
You are also assuming that all agree with this 'civil rights' or 'hate crime' additions to law... I personally do not... murder is murder, robbery is robbery, assault is assault
I'm not sure what you're referring to. The federal government does not have jurisdiction to charge murder in this case. The charge under "Deprivation of Rights Under Color of Law" would stand on its own, its not an add-on to any other charge.
I am all for the death penalty of heinous murderers who are proven without doubt to have committed 1st degree murder(s)....
Why wouldn't you want the death penalty to be enforced whenever it is applicable? Why just murder? Are you against executing those guilty of treason, for instance?
And actually.. quite tired of people like you and a few others on here who continually show an inherent hatred for law enforcement
Why are you defending people who brutally gunned down unarmed civilians and then literally jumped up and down on their dying bodies?
I am not for add on stipulations to law and I am not not for this 'civil rights' punishment
Whoever, under color of any law, statute, ordinance, regulation, or custom, willfully subjects any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured or protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States, ... shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both; and if bodily injury results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include the use, attempted use, or threatened use of a dangerous weapon, explosives, or fire, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and if death results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include kidnaping or an attempt to kidnap, aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to commit aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to kill, shall be fined under this title, or imprisoned for any term of years or for life, or both, or may be sentenced to death.
This is a 'catch all' law.... for if someone commits murder, that is the crime... whether it be a murder because that person wanted your slurpee or because it was because of the color of your skin or because they wanted to prevent you from voting... much like 'hate crime' laws are 'feel good' bullshit additions, this is as well
As for treason.... it is in line with a war crime... war against our country leads to deaths... and hence why treason CAN carry the death penalty... but does not INHERENTLY carry the death penalty...
I am not defending anyone who 'brutally gunned down' anyone, nor am I defending a murderer... but nice try... I stated that you have an inherent hatred for law enforcement, as evidenced by your continual attacks on them and your propensity to want nasty things to happen to them because they are law enforcement
