Guns are bad. Police need to disarmed as they are a danger to themselves, their families and the public. There's no need for them to be armed I mean after all they carry radios they can call the police. A radio is better than a gun, right Mayor?

[E. Pluribus Unum]

This just proves that nobody except agents of the feral government should have access to guns.

What about the Dog

[a fool in paradise]

Police have not released the name of the shooter

Pending notification of next of kin?

[PhiloBedo]

I wonder if he was one those cops that gunned down the hapless guy at Costco a couple of years ago?

[Venturer]

If I had to come up with a scenario, I would bet the wife was leaving and taking the child with her.

[DBrow]

Ouch! This is terrible. Cops losing one of their own is bad enough but murder-suicide is more painful.

Interesting to note, though, that even in this case, the guy suicided when men with guns showed up.

[MeneMeneTekelUpharsin]

Well, it certainly isn’t a values problem then. It HAS to be the guns. Whoever touches one wants to go and kill one’s spouse, children, etc., ad nauseum.

[Sir Napsalot]

How is this going to be tied to the ‘assault rifle’ of current fad, hum, I ask you?

Media will be combing through the debri for that assault weapon!

[libertarian27]

...as rifle-toting cops...

What a strange phrase...

[Secret Agent Man]

Police need to be disarmed. They are self-proclaimed “experts” with guns. They are that more deadly than the average citizen. Better yet, we should round up all the officers and turn them in for $100 bucks.

Make your community safer. Start your own Officer Buyback program today.

Wonder if he was the nut who repeatedly tased that guy just standing in his front yard at night, 2 years ago...?

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

Prayers for the family....but....only Law Enforcement Officers should be allowed to have firearms? Isn't that what the hoplophobes have been trumpeting since December 14th, 2012?

How would such a plan have saved this cop's family?

[KosmicKitty]

Cops have it rough. No one calls the police because they’re having a good day.

Imagine being the first person to walk into that classroom in Sandy Hook!

[rednesss]

This story is impossible to believe. As I have learned 100 times over here on FR, cops are your friend, they never break the law, they are to be blindly worshiped, they have hard jobs so must be given a pass for any transgressions, and we just don’t have the full story yet, wait for the other side. It might take her awhile to give it though. </sarc>

[hosepipe]

Absent a gun..... he would have thrown them out of a three story building..
poison and ‘nives work too.. drowning, strangling, and hammars can suffice..

BUT.... its guns that stupid women and devious men fixate on..
WOMEN?... you know Oprah watchers.. Ellen DeGenerous fans..
Jersey Shore cretins... David Letterman donkeys..

[Banjoguy]

I am disgusted of hearing or reading the phrase "one of their own."

Every time something of note occurs involving a member of the law enforcement community, the media outlets here, it seems, can't wait to use the phrase.

Just exactly what is that supposed to mean?

[Selene]

NBC left out

“Brewer said he heard a person yell, “I did not do this,” as authorities circled the house, but he wasn’t sure who spoke”

Prayers for the family.
How in the world do you get to 52 years old and decide it’s not worth it? Sad, sad situation, all politics aside.
