America -- What Now?

We're reading True Grit in my 1213 class. I just spent 20 minutes trying to explain to my 11:00 class why it's wrong -- no, really -- for an officer of the law to shoot a suspect in the back from ambush. I don't believe I convinced them, either.

May I add that a good % of the class are home-schooled Evangelical Xtians?

Yay America.

Ha! That's a point I did not consider.

And if they were innocent, why would they be running away?

(I know we don't know one another IRL, but still I was glad to hear the relatively good news in the last post.)

Thanks, Vance! It's the best news of our week so far.
