"PROVIDENCE - As the chaos of the police shooting subsided, several Providence police officers gathered around what they thought was a mortally wounded suspect, who lay face up and bleeding in the parking lot of an all-night diner."
"To a few of them, the young man looked somewhat familiar. But it took several minutes to confirm what one officer, to her horror, slowly realized: The suspect was Sergeant Cornel Young Jr., a comrade about to die from friendly fire." |

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
