[QUOTE="Sanford, post: 2236637, member: 27733"] I don't care if there's a reason or not, much less whether he knows what it is. He had every right to do what he did, no justification needed whatsoever. That still doesn't mean that he made a wise decision, and it still doesn't exempt him from dealing with the outcome resulting from his decision. I can't make you do anything. You can't make me do anything. Those officers couldn't make the driver do anything. He couldn't make them do anything. Everything that happened to anyone in the video was a direct result of their own choices and actions. Rights aside, our choices and actions result in consequences - sometimes good, sometimes less desirable - and we alone are responsible for those consequences. When other people are involved they're also responsible for their own choices and actions - but it still doesn't absolve us of responsibility for our own, nor do our actions absolve them of responsibility for theirs. Anything else results in the whole touchy-feely nanny-mommy "somebody else's fault" mentality that's become so prevalent in the past couple of decades. [/QUOTE]
