RESPONSE TO: Uptownzdutchess from Philly's A must read

I do not agree - ANYONE who brings a gun with them to commit a crime intends to kill if it is them or the other person in a standoff.

If it was not a police officer and it was someone who was defending their property/business and they had a gun for protection, the criminal who brings the gun to commit a crime and shoots the proprietor/owner would intend to use the gun.

And a police officer who works on the police force to protect and serve the general population, and is killed in the line of duty, it is twice as bad, as they put their life on the line everyday to protect the citizens.

You never heard that Lewis family letting the police know his whereabouts. And his mother must have known as they found the guns in her house. And the cousin drove him to Wilmington to escape. I would not doubt, that his mother (even though she is a peace officer) probably called the cousin to get Lewis out of town.

Yes, a manhunt was warranted.

Yes, they should go after the death penalty for Lewis. A long sentence for the cousin, and I would look into arresting the mother
