I don't think that retaliating against criminal theft is a matter of debate. If police behave criminally, they are subject to retaliation. This is the long sighted view, in that in the long run, fighting back against criminal behavior is a detterent against that behavior. Am I missing something here? Should we encourage thuggery and brigandry in our peace officers? Dangerous, yes, shortsighted, absolutely not.
