Reply to comment by _ism_ in "Several deputies carried canisters of gasoline to a local campsite and torched entire everything" - I haven't see any talk about this until now, can someone verify? by Mysteroo

I don't have a dog in this fight at all, but is it possible the property owner burned it rather than the deputies? The deputies would not be able to burn the camp on private property without breaking the law themselves (even if they have permission, I would view this as a public funds misuse). Just offering a different viewpoint.

Police break the law all the time.

Is this your first time seeing cops do something horrific? And at that point is this your first day in America? Cops do shit like this and much worse things constantly because who's gonna arrest the cops? Then if they do something bad enough to actually see any consequences the "consequences" are usually just a paid leave. They also have the strongest unions in the country with a massive budget to give these cops legal protection.

i don't know why you are replying to me, i was simply offering what they'd asked about before they edited to reflect that
