We very aware of public opinion?  Except when it deals with justice and them others uses it inappropriately.  If you level any weapon toward a law officer and shot to death.  We aware of that truth many states , I felt threatened for my life.  Bam,  off of charges he will face.  We know it
We have seen it.  So where is the justice?  When the officer shoot a suspect running away and is shot to death in the back?  Shoot a cop in the back and won't no debate be offered.  You facing multiple charges.  So laws goes both ways.   Seeking Justice only works when it applied honestly.
