If it weren’t bad enough that five police officers were murdered in Dallas last week…
Sadly, we are reaching the point where, when you see the flags are at half-mast, it is hard to figure out which tragedy they mark.

Three officers were murdered, and one is fighting for his life as we speak.
And just in…
Milwaukee Police officer shot, injured after incident on South Side. Full story here: https://t.co/tx7xVqhIig

According to the Milwaukee police report, “Around 2:00 a.m., a MPD Officer was seated in a squad car in the area conducting the investigation when a suspect approached on foot and fired a gun several times into the squad, striking the officer several times.”
Every single police officer has become a moving target just by wearing the uniform. It’s getting so bad out there that no police officer should never respond to any call without being in full riot gear.
This ongoing War on Cops is just unacceptable. Thoughts and prayers are nice but they’re not enough!
There is far too much anti-police rhetoric across the country, and especially on social media. I will not post any of it here, but suffice it to say, it’s absolutely disgusting.
All Americans must band together and support law enforcement and all of our police officers, or we don’t deserve their service or protection. I would urge them to all just walk off the job right now, but I know that will never happen. They care more about us than we do about them.
How sad is that?
To all those pieces of shit excuses for human beings who support the murder of police officers, I have only one comment.

UPDATE:
Calling two murderers a WAR sends the wrong message because wars have combatants, suggesting that CIVILIANS are the enemy combatants on the WAR on Cops.
Really??? Wait until this happens to Y O U!
More “Red” American Blood spilled in the War on Unarmed United States of America Civilians
Typical Law Enforcement by Police….
WHO WAS THE ONE THAT COMMITTED THIS COWARDLY ACT?
The video, taken before the officer fired his weapon, shows Kinsey on his back with his hands in the air telling police he didn’t have a weapon and asking them not to fire. At one point the autistic man appears to yell at Kinsey to shut up. A second brief video shows officers who are carrying rifles physically patting down Kinsey and the autistic man while they are lying on the ground.
In an interview with WSVN-Channel 7, Kinsey said that after he was shot, officers approached and flipped him over and handcuffed him.
“Sir, there’s no need for firearms,” Kinsey told the news station he said to police before he was shot. “It was so surprising. It was like a mosquito bite.”
Kinsey said when he asked the officer why he fired his weapon, the cop responded, “I don’t know.”
By Wednesday, North Miami police hadn’t offered much of an explanation. Assistant Police Chief Neal Cuevas said the investigation has been turned over to the Miami-Dade State Attorney’s Office.

PLEASE REMOVE YOUR BLINDERS SO YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE THERE IS A SYSTEMATIC PROBLEM WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA YOU KNOW “BLUE” BLOOD
I don’t have blinders on, as you can see if you read my latest blog. I just have common sense. Just like I don’t blame all teachers, doctors, lawyers, and even elected officials, for the acts of rotten apples, I’m certainly not going to blame all police for the actions of a few. Sorry, but I do not see a “systemic problem with law enforcement” as a profession. I do see a problem with people who go on shooting sprees of police officers for sport.
How about this story of North Miami Police officers shooting an unarmed black man? #BLM = blue lives matter?
Working on a blog as we speak.
Done.
