As I just posted in another shooting of a LEO:

I do believe all loud domestic or otherwise squabbles require police to ‘suit up’ and not go it alone if at all possible. Too many ferals and other cretinous types have decided that their duty is to die if necessary but to take a cop or 2 with them.

Officers returned fire, killing the gunman, who was not named, Ricketson said.

Ricketson identified the deceased man as 31-year-old Rainer Tyler Smith.

Journalism really is dead, isn't it?

From the Atlanta Journal Constitution Article:

Officer William Patterson was treated at Navicent Health in Macon and released, Byron police Chief Wesley Cannon told Channel 2 Action News.

The other officer, James Wynn, was seriously injured and underwent surgery

I'm glad Officer Patterson was not seriously injured, and I pray Officer Wynn recovers.

CNN says that six police in Georgia were shot within six days.


And I say that CNN is to blame for much of this.

I can see Smith's family on television:

"I know he shot two cops, was a violent man and would continue to do harm to the public. But did they need to shoot him? He was a good boy."
