LEGAL INSANITY

After reading the disheartening Sunday Province story: "Cop acts in 
bad faith so all charges dismissed," I received some comic relief 
reading the humorous opinion of Dan Murphy: "Reassuring Americans," 
regarding comments made by U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Janet 
Napolitana.

Should Napolitana read both of these items, I think she would find 
them equally humorous.

Kudos to Const. Ken Winters of Golden RCMP for doing a fine job in 
stopping this rental car and discovering this weapon and drugs.

I only hope he and other diligent officers won't be discouraged by 
this legal insanity.
