I had to look up the story again, found this article:

https://www.wcvb.com/article/boston-...night/26464004

“The officers, who were in uniform, were fired upon and there was an exchange of gunfire that resulted in that officer being shot several times," Gross said.

Gross said the officer was shot several times, including in the torso. The officer has been with the department for about 1 to 2 years, Gross said.'

I mean yeah...if you shoot at the police why you expect to not be shot at as well?

I would imagine it's pretty traumatizing for a cop to have to shoot at someone nevermind kill them. I know some people think they're blood thirsty people who can't wait for the opportunity to kill but most are just normal guys with families trying to make a living. Now whoever this cop is has to live for the rest of his life knowing he did kill someone but it was self defense seeing how he was shot as well. He will likely end up a drinker.

I'm sure he's real happy he became a cop after having gone through all that.

Facts don't seem to matter when it comes to anti police types.

Just wanted to ask you all what you thought about recent developments in the DA race? It's gotten pretty intense.

Funny how Boston Pravda, comrade chairWumyn and limo fauxahontas arroyo pimps waited for all those early voting ballots to show up before saying anything while other clowns haven't said anything at all and are blaming whitie for the story getting out, apparently being a rapist is perfectly fine as long as there's a D next to your name.

Actually I prefer the "innocent until proven guilty" standard. But most of them aren't committed to standards, they are committed to seeking power - at all costs.

Amazing to see progressives twist themselves into knots trying to defend Arroyo. Now there is a city counselor insinuating that the election was stolen. The same one who had made some anti-semitic comments earlier this year. The Arroyo surrogates put together a joke of a last ditch effort on YouTube that depicted Hayden as several shades whiter than he is.

Believe women, and elections are only rigged when it is their team
