    It is depressing to know that in a country with persistent double-digit unemployment SWAT teams all over the country give Radley job tenure that a New Jersey teacher would envy.

    One comment? One fucking comment? Hundreds and hundreds of comments regarding that wacko cunt in AZ that shot people, but only one for the old man the cops killed?

    WTF???
