While it is regrettable to ever need to attend such an event, it's absolutely humbling to see the outpouring of love and support from the LEO community at large (nationwide).
While I have my issues with the often inappropriate heavy-handed behavior of the CSPD, I have a great deal of respect for LEO's and the difficult, often dangerous, situations they're put in regularly. Sending off a fallen comrade like Deputy Brownlee in this manner shows such great respect for his service and his ultimate sacrifice. I'm happy that this sort of event doesn't need to occur very often. I just wish we could provide the same sort of tribute to each of our fallen servicemembers
