THINKING OUTSIDE THE COOLER ON CRIME
There’s been some dissension recently about the three-to-nine-year prison sentence handed down by a New York judge to former police sergeant, Erik Duran, for throwing a plastic beverage cooler at a fleeing suspect in the Bronx. The cooler hit the perp in the arm, causing him to lose control of his motorcycle, crash and die. The harsh sentence was uncharacteristic for Supreme Court Justice Guy Mitchell, who a few years earlier gave only nine months to a guy who beat a homeless man to death.
But what the complainers don’t realize is that there is an epidemic of violent, cisgendered white male cops killing entirely innocent model citizens, out for a day’s drive on their moped, by attacking them with flung coolers — fast becoming the lethal weapon of choice for these diabolical killers. Finally, one judge said: “ENOUGH!”
