We are grateful to those police officers who sacrifice their own safety to effectively and responsibly protect our communities and families.

@justinamash that's fair. However, "not be given more leniency"; is this in all cases or just this one? You are painting a broad brush. -
@TBerriman57 There should not be a double standard for self-defense. If anything, police should be more reluctant to use deadly force.
-
@justinamash in a perfect world, yes. But it's not. The ambushing and entrapment of LEOs has directly contributed to these incidents. -
@TBerriman57 This is about our Constitution (2nd, 4th & 5th Amendments). You sign up to protect public; unfortunately, that involves risks.
-
@justinamash and when you wave guns around in public or attack a police officer, that too involved risks. -
@TBerriman57 I agree, but the Constitution protects individuals who behave badly just as it protects the good and innocent.
-
@justinamash Treat the good the same as the evil? In a war zone, they'd be heroes. Here?We villainize some of them them for doing their job -
@TBerriman57 If you don't like our Constitution, you can try to amend it or move to another country where rights are arbitrarily protected.
