The drug war isn’t just broken. It is evil; a profound national sin.

After ushering out his wife and son, the police refused to allow paramedics to access Guerena for more than hour, leaving the young father to bleed to death, alone, in his own home.

If you don’t bother to click through, the other highlights: Guerena was an ex-marine who served two terms in Iraq. He had no drugs. While he was armed, in presumably in order to defend his family from unknown intruders (SWAT teams are notorious for failing to adequately identify themselves), he never fired a shot. He was shot at least 60 times. Now, instead of serving the community, the police department is covering its ass, changing its story, smearing the man they killed, and and sealing records as fast as it can.
