While this tragedy is different in that it wasn't another homicide, the loss of so many of our men and women in blue is occurring at a sickening regularity.

May this officer rest in peace. May his family find peace & healing.

Rest in peace Travis. He was a great guy. My wife and I just talked with him and his wife last week at the store.

[Bailey Guns]

Yep, regardless of the reason, it's a loss to the community.
