Should attacking cops result in stiffer penalties ?

[gregr]

Then based on your theory a police officer committing any type of crime should receive a harsher sentence than a "civilian" for a similar infraction ?

Depending on who you`re talking to, they will say police can commit no crime, as they`re absolved of any duty to obey the law in order to supposedly keep it. It`s an absurd notion of course, but there really are those, even in light of video showing a police officer murdering a man running away by shooting him in the back, then planting a taser, who will say he did noting wrong.

But back on point, so called hate crime legislation, and anything similar is just nonsense.

Interestingly enough, the President just signed an EO related to this topic.
