And the lib wackos on Facebook, etc (probably multiple fake accounts!) claim that cops are safer now on the job then they were back in the ‘80s. I call BS on that one, and say there is DEFINITELY an increase in assassination-style murders of police officers, especially post- Ferguson, but also over the past six years of Obamugabe.

Being a cop was more safe up through 2013. Murders of police had been decreasing since the 1970s.

Year-by-Year Breakdown of Law Enforcement Deaths throughout U.S. History

"The 1920s were the deadliest decade in law enforcement history, when a total of 2,417 officers died, or an average of almost 241 each year. The deadliest year in law enforcement history was 1930, when 301 officers were killed. That figure dropped dramatically in the 1990s, to an average of 162 per year."

1974 saw 280 police deaths--I'm sure the new race hustlers can outdo that record.
