*************************
This horrific killing of our officers must stop.
These killers have no respect or empathy for anyone or accountability for their actions.
More money needs to be given to the police so they can travel in twos to a car so they have backup when they go out on calls. Maybe have their guns at the ready as a “just in case” scenario.
Justice needs to be quick and permanent so no more of our officers’ lives are cut short. Murderers should not be allowed to breathe the same air as decent people.
Those perpetrators guilty of other crimes and who refuse to comply with the law should be drafted into the military, where their stubborn willfulness will be broken and they will have no option but to toe the line. Our military needs more people, and what better way to recruit? Give them something to learn to be proud of — themselves and their country.
