sorry, my bad... should have been clearer:
2) malicious knee-jerk cop haters who will pretend rumors are “fact” NO MATTER HOW TRIVIAL AND SILLY THEIR CLAIMS OF EVIDENCE ARE to smear police to try to make them look bad to further their own anti-cop agenda
So now Alex Douglass and family are having to deal with him being gut-shot and probably disabled for life and going through a horrific experience, surgeries and recovery process... AND now having to endure a vicious rumor of him having an affair even though there isn’t a drop of evidence.
Spreading that rumor and treating it as fact is nasty and irresponsible.
