    I hope they keep the guy alive. Send him to that prison I read about where the Boston Marathon bomber went to. Sit there for 40 years and rot.

    No, cops are tough people - because they have a tough job and have to intimidate to some degree. None of us understand what it's like to have to constantly be alert and ready for anything. it's a stressful job. They are human and not infallible. There are bad cops and they are certainly not above criticism, but they are also a lot of good cops out there who are trying to do their jobs and the right thing.

    See and that's why I couldn't be a cop. I'd have no interest whatsoever in taking that prick in alive.

    so cops are paranoid of their jobs? why did they become cops then. they forget that they're supposed to stop bad folks from hurting good folks, it's their job. now we're all bad guys until we're not but as we've seen sometimes it's far too late before they make that determination.

    Are you really trying to say that murdering innocent cops is fighting against tyranny?

    Is Dropping bombs on innocent Muslims in other countries is fighting terrorism?

    It's legitimate paranoia, they really do face potential danger every single day just doing their jobs. It's why only a total moron would hassle cops.

    Not that this is important right now, but

    Is this a federal crime? Is this terrorism?

    Has it been confirmed that the shooter(s) are affiliated with BLM or is this just the current assumption in the media?
