“The shooting happened near W. Florissant Avenue”

Michael Brown was shot on W. Florissant Ave...a ghetto rich environment.

I wonder how many of these cops hesitate out of fear of being charged with manslaughter or worse murder and as a result it has end up with them being shot or worse killed. I’m betting quite a bit and that blood is directly on the hands of the BLM terrorists and the “defund the cops” Marxists like AOC. If you’ll notice, that bitch hasn’t said one word about the two cops killed in her own city.

Since it wasn’t Trump, but rather BLM instigating the shooting, I doubt the media will have a problem with it.

Jerry Nadler Response: Nothing to see here, other than they helping to shrink the size of the police force, as part of the defunding effort.

I’m just going to assume the perp is a white supremacist, since our government keeps telling us they’re the problem.

The media and the Democrats (but then I repeat myself) have these officers’ blood on their hands.

Prayers up for the officers and their families. 🙏

Very little point. They almost never have any assets, or more accurately, legal ones, that can be attached, and the officers have to pay their own legal fees to bring a suit for their injuries. The departments might be able to bring a subrogation claim for paying for the officers’ care, but in the current political environment, forget it, and again there is the massive collection problem.

On the other hand, when the offenders sue, there is a nice insurance policy sitting there to collect on...

Not to blame the victims but what were the cops doing policing at all?

They're supposed to have lights and sirens on from blocks away so the criminals know to scatter.

Exactly right . Reluctance is killing the officers. And BLM is smiling.
