Should Derrick have pulled over for Fintan Moore? I would have, but I don’t blame Derrick for not feeling comfortable with stopping what he was doing for some angry man with a big car, a costume, and a gun.
If you support obeying every diktat issued by the men with badges, ask yourself how many seconds of not pulling over is enough in your mind to justify an attack like KPD’s Moore launched on Derrick? 30? 60? 120? Keep in mind Derrick was not wanted for rape or murder. There wasn’t a warrant, as the Sentinel claimed. Moore merely had papers to serve. Should someone be attacked over trying to serve them papers?

*DISCLAIMER: Although the following may sound a bit negative, it was written in the context of making a point. I truly love living in Keene and have been very homesick during my current venture to Philadelphia. Philly is fun, but it very much exemplifies the fact that Keene is still a relatively peaceful society. The police state runs rampant down here, and honestly, it’s pretty damn scary. All I want is to live in a peaceful society. That is why I spend so much time taking the peaceful actions in Keene which have been described in detail on this blog; to help ensure that I have a peaceful society to live in.
