I do not beleive this article 1 bit! Using the link to the Officers Memorial Page which has all the statics. I choose Officers death by gun (only) to rule out car accidents, boat accidents, heat related death, etc. The statistic are NOT what the article claims (unless he did some weird form of calculating). This is what I found: From 09/10 - 106 deaths, 10/11 - 175 deaths, 11/12 - 116 deaths, 12/13 - 79 deaths, 13/14 - 78 deaths, 14/15 - 86 deaths, 15/to present - 65 deaths. Total 705 deaths, when you divide that by 7 years the mean is 100.7 deaths per year.........So police ARE NOT SAFER under Obama...they were safer under the last 3 Presidents. My point, when it comes to statics, they are not always what the media claims..................and feel free to sign into the article site and "like" some of the comments.

The media are going to lose this battle with these assassinations. Their rhetoric and racism accepted against whites is becoming more intolerable with more and more.

Intentional attacks on police officers are at historically low levels under President Obama. There's that word again. The "media" loves it.

LOL. And health insurance premiums are going down too, right?
To: VermithraxPejorative
You got that right. It will all help to get Mr. Trump elected.

WAPO doesn’t want people to know about the annual FBI report LEOKA.
What is not tracked is how many times somebody takes a shot at police, an attempted murder every time.
Safer my posterior. Tell that to the guys and gals who stood the line on West Florissant (was there a couple nights myself). Or Baltimore, or Baton Rouge, Minneapolis.
Dallas.
Trash journalism.
To: blueyon
The police are just becoming more risk adverse, that all.

Also, there is higher employment, salaries are 90% higher, everyone is driving Escalades, gas is $0.35 per gallon, there is no crime at all in any city, even the BIG ones, kids are eating great meals in school, there is free Obamacare, free Obamaphones...

This is obvious to anyone who is not a knuck-dragging Republican climate-change denier.

If the media do manage, in concert with the assclown in our White House, manage to incite a civil war, I sincerely hope that they are the first casualties.
