Funny how conservatives believe in the Constitution...

... except when an officer suspects a poor person of a crime and the suspect runs. Then the conservative will yell at the TV or post online "shot them all". I guess the right to "due process under the law" doesn't apply to all in their confused world?

I asked him if running away from a cop should warrant the death penalty where the cop gets to be judge, jury, and executioner.
