Let's talk about:
'' Doing the Right Thing'' or ''You ain't a victim''
Example # 1:
On the morning of August 2, a fired Columbus police officer, Hermando “Cliff” Harton, Jr., 39, shot his wife in their home. He then led the police on a chase on I-71 into Ashland County where he was shot and wounded by State Patrol officers. His wife had informed him that she wanted a divorce, and he had just been fired from the Columbus Police force. Now comes the shocking part: In the Media…. pending divorce and the stress of losing his job was blamed as being responsible for Harton murdering his wife. He is now suing the officers who shot him, even though he had killed his wife and had a gun in each hand — pointing one of them at the officers. The suit accuses the officers of “cruel and unusual punishment.” Too bad that killing his wife did not seem cruel and unusual to him.
Example # 2:
Another officer, an FBI agent, was fired for embezzling $2000 and using it for gambling. Instead of admitting his guilt and accepting his punishment, he sued the FBI saying that his gambling habit was a handicap protected under the Americans with Disabilities Act. The amazing thing is that he won his case and the FBI was forced to reinstate him.
