The Legislative branch in this country was designed to carry the most power, but for decades there has been a continuing trend of the President and government agencies (FBI, CIA, NSA, local police force) of completely overstepping their authority to wrestle more power and control, and they have succeeded. Our Congress and Senate have failed us, the people themselves have failed to rise up, so if some asshole has the nerve to play "payback" against the police force, good for him. I'm sorry two men had to die and I'm not glad they're dead, but again, in a big picture sense, someone has to fight back. If there was any real justice in this country, there would be millions of armed citizens rising up and holding the entire country hostage until most of our bureaucratic government organizations were dissolved (starting with the NSA and TSA), completely restructured to get local representatives that actually give a shit about the citizens back in power, and get this country back on track.
No arguments here. So what good is shooting two foot soldiers? Meaningless. On the other hand, if Blankfein, Morgan, Yellen, and co started eating lead for lunch...
I beg to differ.
Nothing will change by systematically replacing specific individuals. What needs to change is the populace.
What does the murder of two cops mean to the populace? Well, to those that are sympathetic, it means a tragedy.
But to those that are not sympathetic to the current power structure, it gives them a sense of retribution and justice, which is VERY powerful.
