    but make it a felony with mandatory sentence when a cop abuses that power, be they volunteer or professional
    so that is what your saying Trump did that was so great? "attacking peaceful protestors for a photo op"

    yep, but the Secret Service needs to ask, you can't just say move to a huge crowd, then 1 second later attack

    Sovereign immunity for good faith/honest mistakes would be more appropriate for volunteers than for professional police, but anyone who commits felony should be prosecuted.

    Do you have a source for the attacks on peaceful protestors for a photo op?

    In light of many Secret Service agents being recently hurt by the peaceful protesters, I understand why they’re somewhat edgy.

    Mob courage.

    “The pitifulest thing out is a mob; that's what an army is--a mob; they don't fight with courage that's born in them, but with courage that's borrowed from their mass, and from their officers. But a mob without any MAN at the head of it is BENEATH pitifulness.” Mark Twain, Huckleberry Finn

    Typical election cycle blather. Less effective now than in 2015, but I would give you an E for the effort if that would help. ;-)

    They were not peaceful they were refusing lawful orders to move, the night before had firebombed the church and earlier in the day tossed water bottles at the Attorney General and others. They had three chances to move then mild forms of non-lethal force was used to remove those who refused to move. These groups injured over 50 Secret Service agents the night before.

    No. That is why you don’t **** with Secret Service, out to escort the President on the United States. They say jump, you don’t ask how high, you jump as high as you can and backwards. Then you run as fast as you can.

    Which statement? Which words exactly show a lack of grace? Because everything I have seen is the opposite of what you say. She was extremely mild.
    Please quote her exact words that you think show a lack of grace.

    Would you be surprised if Donald Trump is convincingly re-elected?

    nah... I don’t think you would be.

    Here's a relatively humorous story about the Church Lady Photo Op... from somebody who made a bad photo op for another failed politician...

    https://www.yahoo.com/news/helped-create-worst-photo-op-154517932.html

    I don't remember the Dukakis photo, not being politically awoke at the time, but that is a silly photo....

    And then you contrast that story with the latest delusions from Nuremberg Barbie..

    https://www.yahoo.com/news/kayleigh-mcenany-compares-trump-church-194427949.html

    Churchill during the Blitz?

    Bush after 9/11?

    Who in the world does she think she's fooling??

    Oh.... right... I keep forgetting....
