It makes me sick to my stomach. I think the whole world has gone insane at times...and it also pisses me off. WHY would someone want to shoot at an agency that is sworn to protect and serve? All these clowns saying *kitten* the police and that cops are just abusive power trippers should maybe consider calling a junkie the next time their house is broken into, their child or their elderly parent is missing or their sister or mom is being beaten by their boyfriend. I've been in corrections for over 10 years and I wouldn't want to be in ANY Officer or Constables shoes, the thought terrifies me for the Police I know. =( Stay safe!!4

Refering to Franknbarbie01--
It's very sad, sometimes in this world unfortunately people are targeted for the actions of some. Some police officers are corrupt and do not carry out their duties as they are supposed to. Some of them are "abusive power trippers" - This leads to extremism when people get angry. Some of them are Strong protective role models. Innocent lives are lost.

Because a lot of people in this society are ignorant enough to believe that two wrongs equal one right.14

Doug - be safe out there. My father is on the job as well and it's the scariest time I've ever experienced. I can honestly say that this is scarier than 9/11.1

It's ridiculous for sure! Thank you for risking your life everyday though.1

I'm surprised you're the first person to mention this. The shootings are tragic, but they are also not happening in a vacuum, but rather in the context of other deplorable incidences.

I am in awe that society is shooting those that protect. What will happen when the cops say no more and we have no protection
Doug, my brother in blue... I started November of 1973 and retired in June of 2004.... I loved every second of my time... it was a city police department in North Carolina..... 10 years patrol and 20 years in Investigations......
I wouldnt want your job right now... its a scary time to be a police officer.... no matter what level.... there are so many people who really what we do and why we do it.... its sure not for that big pay check.....
you are a special person person.... stay safe.... head on a swivel ...... know there are a lot of us praying for you guys....
wish nay sayers could walk in our shoes one single day.....4 -
The very people, who are serving and protecting society, are being targeted! how safe should anyone feel?
This is the breeding ground for terror and chaos!
Please stay safe!1
