A Simple Question
A Florida "corrections officer" who had been indicted for having sex with inmates under his custody and who was about to be arrested opened fire on the feds there to arrest him. A foolish move on the feds' part since he was armed. See they went to the institution where he worked to bust him. Sheesh.
As usual the media kinda spun this news report. On GoogleNews.com the headline was "FBI: Prison guard opens fire on feds sent to arrest him", which misrepresents what really happened here. I think the idea of requiring that the custodial staff of institutions that hold people against their will (I.e.- children, students, the mentally unbalanced, retardates, the elderly and prisoners),not have sex with them is sound and worth upholding. So why spin this as a "Live Free or Die" kinda issue?
What CNN's agenda is here (and Google's too), is sort of easy to figger out though, eh?
PS- What exactly is it that these folks are suppose to be “correcting” anyhow? They hold people against their will, for whatever reason, but they aren't “correcting” anything by having sex with them as far as I can see.
