This is the result of a society and a news media that constantly demonizes its police offices every time they do their job. Crazy and unstable lunatics feed on those rants. And then they go out and play hero by killing those cops.

yes, I agree, there are way to many violent crazy people on the loose out there....

I remember a few years back, oh, maybe four or five, when I was on my way home, and was listening to a news station, they were reporting that there had been a movement for war on cops, and they were going to start killing cops randomly....and ya gotta wonder, as it's come to fruition, but the news never reported on this...

ya gotta start asking yourself, who the killer was, what nationality and did he belong to a gang....b/c the news media very rarely reports that information....but it's time we see if there is a pattern going on here....way to many are being shot, and I remember on this news station, they were calling for people across the U.S. to start executing police officers?

That's all I remember...

Mental illness is a real problem worldwide and it's growing exponentially. Mental illness is genetic and passed down. Mentally ill people breed a lot because well, they are crazy and don't understand personal responsibility and consequences of actions.

No one has the right to take the life of another outside of an actual direct threat to theirs and that includes this example.
Just pointing the hypocrisy!

“The only thing these men were guilty of is wanting to protect you and me. They just wanted to get something to eat, and they just wanted to do their job,” he said.

there is a war on cops going on out there, and someone is behind it...and I can't agree with you more.

because stories like a hero pilot landing a plane with debris flying around in the aircraft, a passenger killed, and a window blown out or two young police officers shot to death while just eating lunch can't compete with the horror and tragedy of two black guys being arrested at a starbucks in philly....

According to the article,

The shooter was identified as a man from a small town just up the road from the restaurant, and his motive wasn’t immediately known, but the sheriff blamed Thursday’s killings on hatred toward law enforcement.

“What do you expect happens when you demonize law enforcement to the extent it’s been demonized? Every type of hate, every type of put-down you can think of,” Gilchrist County Sheriff Bobby Schultz said at a news conference.


I think it is a safe assumption. The coward were shot dead through the window of a Chinese restaurant by a man who then killed himself. Obviously, this loser had a hatred towards the officers.
