I appreciate his sentiment, but I’d rather go 0-for-9 with a dozen assists than straight up go 0-for-30 because I was overconfident in my abilities.

Hunter wasn’t saying that seasoned lawyers couldn’t depose him or that he shouldn’t be compelled to give testimony that could later be used against him in a trial setting. He merely wants these seasoned lawyers to do it in public view so that Republicans can’t straw man him.

For the sake of argument, let’s assume that this is indeed a riot. To suppose that everyone present at a riot is necessarily a rioter is to commit a fallacy of division. But even if the person were a rioter, that wouldn’t therefore mean that the use of force was reasonable.

How so? The “thin blue line” promotes an “us-versus-them” mentality which suggests a divide between members of law enforcement and the community.
Rather than viewing members of public as adversaries, law enforcement officials should view them as fellow community members.
