Another senseless gun related death of a police officer at the hands
of a maniac, thanks to the gun lobby making certain hand gun
restrictions are few.


SEATTLE -- A Pierce County sheriff's deputy wounded in a shootout
during a domestic disturbance last week has died.
Kent Mundell was taken off life support Monday afternoon at Harborview
Medical Center, officials said. He was 44.

Sheriff spokesman Ed Troyer said Mundell was surrounded by his wife
and children when he died.

"Obviously everybody was waiting for a miracle, and it didn't come,"
Troyer said. "The fact that he survived as long as he did is amazing,
and that's why, I think, people were hoping for a miracle. But it just
wasn't meant to be. The wounds were too severe, and he has passed on."
Mundell's death marks the sixth area law enforcement officer killed in
the line of duty in two months.

Mundell and Sgt. Nick Hausner were shot by David E. Crable while
trying to remove him from a home in Eatonville.

Mundell managed to shoot back and kill Crable, investigators said.

Hausner was treated at Madigan Army Medical center and is recovering
from a gunshot wound to the neck. He was able to visit Mundell last
week at Harborview.

Troyer said Mundell and Hausner were called to the house after Crable
got in a fight with his brother and daughter.

The deputies arrived and convinced Crable, who was intoxicated, to
leave the house.

Investigators say Crable was concealing a gun in clothes he was
holding and fired about 10 shots at the two deputies from just a few
feet away.

"At some point he changed his mind about taking the ride out of there
and opened fire on the deputies," Troyer said.

Mundell was shot multiple times and was airlifted to Harborview
Medical Center in Seattle, where he remained in the intensive-care
unit until he died at 5:04 p.m. on Monday.

At the hospital, fellow law enforcement officers had maintained a
constant vigil and offered support to Mundell's friends and family.

Mundell had been with the sheriff's office for nearly 10 years. He is
survived by his wife, 16-year-old daughter and 10-year-old son.

Pierce County Sheriff Paul Pastor said the whole department has been
shaken by the loss.

"He lost his life because he believed in taking risks for other
people. All of us here... have suffered a tremendous loss.

"Whether or not you knew him, whether or not you lived in Pierce
County, you suffered a tremendous loss," Pastor said. "We should all
be thankful there are people willing to step forward, willing to put
themselves at risk for us."

Mundell's death comes with the region still reeling from the recent
murders of five other police officers.

On Oct. 31, Officer Timothy Brenton was shot to death in Seattle's
Central District neighborhood while in his patrol car.

His partner, Britt Sweeney, was wounded. Prosecutors have charged
Christopher Monfort in the shootings.

On Nov. 29, Lakewood police Sgt. Mark Renninger and officers Ronald
Owens, Tina Griswold and Greg Richards were shot to death at a coffee
shop in Parkland, Wash.

The gunman, Maurice Clemmons was fatally shot by a Seattle police
officer two days later.

A memorial for Mundell is being planned tentatively for January 5 at
the Tacoma Dome. Troyer said the public would be invited and
encouraged to attend.

Thankfully my wife and I saw it coming, and moved to the peninsula away

My point is that claiming it's just one side that's capable of mistakes is
complete crap. For example, I saw a chart that listed sex scandels of
members of the two parties. The Democrats actually had more than the
Republicans by a slim margin. The difference is that the Democrats weren't
promoting themselves as "family value" acolytes. The Repubicans were and by
a huge margin. That's call hypocrisy, which some here can't seem to fathom
makes a difference.
