The typical prosecutor and judge supports the officers on the criminal side, so no correction there.

If the municipality doesn't just pay for the officers' civil suits off the start, the officers are just about guaranteed to be granted qualified immunity for their actions.

So, what is seen in the videos will keep right on occurring.

This.

The cop lied about her cracking the window open. You can clearly see that the window was all the way down when the door opened. Also, from time of first contact to when she was laying on the pavement was a minute and half. That's a quick escalation from asking for your ID to being put in an arm bar.

When I decided to refinish an old Garand stock I asked other folks in the CMP forums what they typically used. They generally try to get something approaching an original and/or authentic finish for Garand stocks so BLO, RLO and Tung are quite commonly used and recommended.

One cartouched stock I used RLO on looks good and has the appropriate amount of matte sheen - I wouldn't mind just a bit more shine on it so maybe I'll just try another coat or two of RLO, since there appears to be no kind of finishing wax that adds shine.

The other stock I'm doing (pictured here) isn't a cartouched stock so I'm not worried about authenticity. Moreover, as it's birch, I think more shine will help it pop. At this point, maybe it makes more sense to strip it and start over with Tru-Oil. I've already put some work into it, but since it's going to take, apparently, weeks or months to fully cure before I can put another product on top of it (assuming such a product exists, which it looks like it doesn't), I suppose I can just use that time to start over with Tru-Oil.
