Well, despite the fact that a POS drug dealer( who was unarmed) got shot, these guys failed to report it and then lied about it. No place for guys like this in law enforcement.

The incident happened right here in El Paso County. It's an amazingly hot topic of debate. I work literally walking distance (5 minutes on a bad day) from the Mexican border. People here are very concerned about the influx of drugs as well as illegal aliens. Juxtapose that with the people who feel the abuse of power supercedes the crimes of the victim.
I'm with Denny on this one. You can't set an example as a moral society if you condone vigilante justice. Had it been the other way around, everyone would have just viewed it as some third world cowboys taking out a criminal and everyone would be up in arms about it. Why shouldn't we be as outraged when a supposedly more sophisticated society with more integrity in its law enforcement agencies behave the same way?
