Taking out the garbage, western style

(Maurice Clemmons, import from Arkansas. The face of hatred, evil, and a waste of good ammo. From Seattle Post-Intelligencer website, today.)

Career criminal, cop killer,baby raper, evil in a slime ball, a man who had been given multiple opportunities to change, is dead at the hands of an Irish cop. This is not a lead in to an action movie. It happened today. In the early morning hours near the scene of his latest mayhem, Maurice Clemmons lost his latest duel with police. He was shot dead by Benjamin Kelly, working alone when he was approached from behind by the suspect.

When ordered to stop advancing and put his hands up, Clemmons continued his advance, circling the officer and reaching for his waistband. Kelly shot him. Later, it was discovered that Clemmons was reaching for the gun taken off of one of the officers he had killed a few days earlier, preparing to use it, again against a police officer.

Code of the West, baby. Live by the gun, die by the gun. If you're gonna be stupid, you better be tough. And, remember, cops are put there by society to serve a specific purpose. We love them. We train them, we invest in their well-being. We really hate it when you fuck with them. And, they hate it when one (or in this case, five, are fucked with).

Another day at the landfill. Code of the West.
