No Less Than Death

The Post takes on another - locally famous - case of police over reaction: the murder of Salvatore J. Culosi.

I agree with the post that Deval Bullock may have been a good cop who made an error, but that doesn’t warrant the slap on the wrist he recieved. I say throw him in jail. At least fire him. And, as Glenn Reynolds points out, in these cases of extreme organized overreaction (this was a SWAT raid, different and vastly more appalling because of its apparant official stamp than the shooting in NY the other day) the police involved - right up to the Chief - ought to be held criminally and civilly (without any immunity or official protection) for their actions.

But, thats not really the point of this post.

Rather, its to call for the prosecution (and conviction) of Fairfax Prosecutor Robert Horan for conspiracy to comit murder - cause in my mind no factor contributes as much to the constant overreaction and frequently violent outcomes of Fairfax police incidents than Robert Horan’s steadfast refusal to ever find anything even the slightest bit wrong in the way a cop acts.

Virginia’s facorite son, Thomas Jefferson once said a little rebellion now and then is a good thing.

String Ronbert Horan up, say I.

There’s a nice tree on Gallows Rd., just down the street from Tysons, thats well deserving.

Les posted about the 15th anniversary special DVD release of Reservoir Dogs the other day.

It came today, and I am watching it right now.

Movie is one of the all time classics. First saw it while living in London in 1994 at a small theater in Soho. It was an art house cinema, in some back alley, and we walked out even more loaded than when we walked in (and proceeded to go see a live sex show across the street). In any case, it was a fascinating movie then, and remains one of the all time classics now.

The DVD is not to be outdone. Quentin’s commentary track alone is well worth the price of admission alone(only $15 at Amazon.com) but its really the packaging that drives this one home. It comes in a minature gasoline can, and when you open it up, the CD is actually stored in a reproduction match book.

Brilliant!!

I just wish he would release another great movie already (Its been 3 or 4 years since the Kill Bill films and a full decade since Jackie Brown was released - Sin City was an awful flick, and so it doesn’t count, neither do the CSI and Alias episodes).
