    | "There was one gunman with a handgun and they chose to turn this house into something that resembles Osama Bin Laden's compound."
 Leo Lech is more than a little upset, and he is not afraid to express it with colorful language. ...
 "In any civilized nation ... this is the act of paramilitary thugs," he says he told the chief of the Greenwood Village Police Department.
 The chief, Lech said, brushed it off.
 The damage was inflicted by police and SWAT officers who were working to capture Robert Jonathan Seacat, a suspected 33-year-old shoplifter who allegedly barged into a random home Wednesday afternoon, and opened fire on police when they tried to arrest him a short time later.

    | Another "boys with toys" episode where the local SWATs had fun. The reality is the neighborhood was terrorized, and an unfortunate home owner was victimized. Now what the public needs is a 'quid pro quo' where instances of excessive property damage comes out of the SWAT budget and/or paychecks.  Just might make these 'boys' play more carefully in someone else's sandbox. |

                      | A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. ~ Marcus Tullius Cicero (42B.C) |  |  |
