Sick and disgusting. A police officer's job is hard enough as it is. I hope justice is swift, and I hope examples are made of the thugs responsible.

This morning I had a message from our local drum and pipe corps chapter that there are two are dead (in addition to the two who died earlier in the Charlottesville).

Two Charlottesville officers are dead because of Unite the Right.

Police are being killed because over racism.

It's not liberals who have been fanning the flames of racist behavior all these years.

Own it.

The left are cop killers. Just see what happened in Dallas and last night. You lose all credibility when you blane the right for a helicopter crash.

Politics like you just espoused is the biggest reason we are not able to address these issues.

There are not enough details for anyone to "own it". And even then we only own what we, ourselves, do. It appears that at least one incident was someone holding his family hostage while threatening suicide/murder. I have seen no indication that any of the shooting was related to "racism". Have you?

My takeaway? Dont be a cop. You'll be tasked with enforcing Caesars unjust laws, compromising your own values, lying, physically abusing those whom have paid you, be put into no-win situations....

My Sympathies go out to the wounded and killed officers and their families, sadly this is just small a glimpse of our future IMO.

Thankfully we have good Men and Women that do not feel that way and are willing to put themselves between the lawful and the lawless. Without them we would have war in our streets.
