How many more cops must die?
I am outraged! What is wrong with people today? How many more police officers have to die before enough revenge is exacted on them?
Do folks really believe that police officers get up in the morning, kiss their spouses goodbye, see their children off to school, put their uniform on, head out to work and start looking for someone to kill – black, white or otherwise?
Police officers are there to protect and serve communities. If an officer has to a weapon in the line of duty, it is because there is an imminent danger to the officer or others.
I spent my entire career in law enforcement and I never met a murderous cop. If our officers weren’t around, you would have a new understanding of how bad things can get!
We should all stand up and support our law enforcement officers. These are innocent people being slaughtered because they wear a uniform.
