That's not what the statement intimates, nowhere does it say every commits the same crime everyday.

"Show me the man and I'll show you the crime", who knows what you've done until some motivated investigator goes digging looking for an excuse to fuck you. Even worse is that they can take even the cleanest most innocent person and ruin them just by running them through the system and making them defend themselves against the limitless resources of the state.

From OP's article:

Because nearly all police agencies receive some sort of federal funding, including most local sheriff’s departments and town police, the bill basically makes it a federal crime to kill, attempt to kill or conspire to kill any police officer (as well as any judge or first responder). The bill would also allow for the federal death penalty in such cases

From June 2016:

Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump on Thursday vowed to issue an executive order to mandate the death penalty for anyone who kills a police officer.
“One of the first things I’d do in terms of executive order, if I win, will be to sign a strong, strong statement that would go out to the country, out to the world, anybody killing a police man, a police woman, a police officer, anybody killing a police officer, the death penalty is going to happen,” he said.


Anyone who kills police officers deserves the death penalty in my opinion!

Yeah.... That's not going to yield the desired effect.

Because after the first one, the rest are free.  Criminals know this.

The department can't separate themselves from the officer unless there was an obvious violation of policy or deviation from training. Often, the department is on the hook for failure to train.

If people could only sue the officer, there would be a whole lot less law suits. They want the deep pockets and cops don't make that kind of cash.

If people cannot sue the department and city for the actions of their agent, then that agent should not receive special privileges and protections associated with the job. Seems reasonable to me anyway.

Link to the actual bill

Reading it now, appears to be quite different from OP's summary. Will edit with opinion once I'm done.

Edit: i am not a lawyer so my reading of this might be inaccurate but...

Don't see any language giving the federal government authority over state/local police. I see language allowing the feds to prosecute for attacks against any form of law enforcement officer.

The added liability protection appears to be limited to only  cases where a felony or violent crime is being committed. (If you are committing a serious offense, the officers can be more forceful in stopping you without fear of getting sued)

It's identical to this bill?

https://www.congress.gov/bill/114th-congress/house-bill/5809?q=%7B%22search%22%3A%5B%22back+the+blue%22%5D%7D&r=5

Summary:

This bill amends the federal criminal code by establishing mandatory minimum sentences of 10 years in prison for offenders who kill, or attempt or conspire to kill, current or former U.S. judges and federal law enforcement officers. Offenders are subject to 30 years in prison or the death penalty if death results.

Additionally, the bill makes it illegal to kill, or attempt or conspire to kill, current or former public safety officers or judicial officers who work for state or local governments that are federally funded if the officers were engaged in official duties or targeted on account of their duties. The penalties for crimes against federal officials are also applied for crimes against federally funded public safety officers.

The bill: (1) makes it a crime to assault an individual involved in crime and juvenile delinquency control or reduction, or enforcement of the laws of states; and (2) increases penalties based on the degree of bodily injury caused by the assault and the type of weapon used.

A new federal crime is established for fleeing authorities to avoid prosecution, custody, or confinement after conviction for a killing, attempting to kill, or conspiring to kill, a federal judge or law enforcement officer, or a federally funded public safety officer.

The bill expands the authority of federal law enforcement officers to carry firearms in federal facilities.

The Department of Justice must award grants to state, local, or tribal enforcement agencies for improving their relationships with the communities they serve.

Yes. Resisting arrest is a felony in many states. People get arresting occasionally for resisting arrest. Only charge. Think about that real hard for a second.

No, as long as they THINK an actual crime is being committed.
No, it removes redress if they violate a suspect's constitutional rights if the crime they are investigating the suspect for "more likely than not" is a crime of violence or threatened violence.  That seems like it could include such things as the investigation of a domestic abuse - as if Launtenberg isn't already a problem in such a case.  The court already has discretion to award or deny attorneys fees in such a case, this removes the court's discretion to give attorney's fees without the plaintiff even having to be convicted of a crime (and thus makes suing over a potential constitutional rights violation almost impossible for most).

My biggest problem here is with that part.  If the government can show the plaintiff was actually involved in a crime - and get a conviction - not merely being investigated - I'd have no problem limiting their ability to sue.  This goes much further.  

My other problem is that this creates another special class of victims for whom the justice system is free to mead out an extra penalty penalty based upon their status; its akin to hate crimes, but for police.

I'm not okay with shielding the police as if they can do no wrong, I'm also not okay with throwing them under the bus.

But I guess coming up with a reasonable solution in the middle requires to much time and effort? How hard would it be to word things in such a way that if an officer fucks up he can be held personally responsible in reasonable situations? Like false arrest, or failing to protect a detainee? While protecting him from unreasonable persecution in others?

I'm fine with the death penalty part... except I recall a case where lethal force was used to resist false arrest and the guy found not guilty of the murder charge. I'd say that should be an exception.

Also, why the fuck is the federal government involved in state affairs?

This would be my concern.

Imagine a no knock raid on the house of the average ArfCommer.  Since we all sleep with one eye open and a firm grip on our night stand AR, as soon as the door gets knocked in at 3:30 am, rounds are flying towards the intruders but, alas!, they are law enforcement busting in the wrong house and they are dropping like flies in a hail of gunfire.

So, by reacting the proper way - repelling intruders - we are suddenly subject to extra death penalty charges?  

If that's the case then this bill is horseshit.
