Just got back from the hospital visiting a friend of the family who just had a baby boy today. The hospital was lined with police cars, officers all around and new crews on every entry point.

The first thought I had was "oh no, not again". Obviously for my friends in blue my concern for their safety has grown every year, now it's every day. The criminals seem to be more emboldened to use deadly force as they don't give a shit about anyone or anything. As I've said to my unarmed friends-if they're willing to fire on the cops who they know are armed, what do you think they'll do to Joe/Jane Sixpack?

Prayers to the friends/families of the officers involved. I'm getting sick of saying "another sad day".

Quickly becoming the liberal paradises the Dems seek.

Condolences to the deputies friends and family.

Jesus, all that over a fucking stolen car. RIP Detective Flick. 2018 is sure off to a ominous start.

Stolen car, warrant, drugs, etc... POS doesn't need a reason. Some exist only to kill, steal, and destroy.

As I've said, I'm damned grateful we don't have to deal with these people in the streets and it's the reason we should stay armed.
