Yes I suppose they do but I am not really talking about the "official" or "police" response to this incident. Bad apples should be punished. However, shouldn't the justice be carried out in such a way so as not to endanger the lives of all the good apples?

If one tree has a couple of bad apples you don't chop down the entire orchard.

oy....first flightless birds now apple trees
