I am as pro-cop as anyone on this site, but we have to be careful interpreting all harmful encounters by cops as the war on cops. Surely those ambushes were, but cops are assaulted every day in America. Internet news makes it appear worse than it is, and three cops out of the hundreds of thousands out there working at any time, is statistically zero. I am not saying we shouldn’t be concerned, but let’s keep it in proportion.

You are right, but it only underscores how inherently dangerous the job is. And why it's important for police officers to be able to defend themselves,and to protect the community. Sometimes that means using deadly force.

When an officers says that he feared for his life, you can believe him.

“I would agree except I read somewhere that there were three men with guns. That is not really a random shooting.”

Ambush.

About 55 police are killed by violence every year, on average, so that’s about one a week.

Well, OK, but I think you may be underestimating the problem. As I read your suggestion, you only recognize as part of the Zero/BLM conspiracy against police is when a deliberate ambush is set up.

However, once the President has fomented sufficient hatred and has manufactured enough dehumanization of police, there are other factors. The punk who would have belligerently submitted to detention or arrest may now feel empowered by Presidential authority to resist by shooting the police officer. When everyone is set to expload, unplanned explosions can happen.

I know this will come as a complete surprise to everyone here... Hillary!, DNC, White House and POTUS twitter feeds have nothing... not a peep... regarding this latest murder of a police officer.

Sounds like a staged “shoot out” to enable an ambush.
Yes, a similar tactic was employed at Baton Rouge.

Sunday, 7/17/2016, on Fox News Channel’s breaking news coverage of the shootings in Baton Rouge, LA that has killed 34 officers and injured 3 more, Cleveland police officer and Police Patrolmen’s Association President Steve Loomis said President Barack Obama had “blood on his hands.”

Loomis said, “The president of the United States validated a false narrative and the nonsense that Black Lives Matter and the Media are pressing out to the public — validated with his very divisive statements And now we see an escalation. This has got to end. We need some leadership in this country to come forward and put an end to this. I don’t care if it’s clergy or who it is but somebody has to step up and put an end to this. It’s false narrative and people politicizing the false narrative that we have a president of the united states and governor of Minnesota making a statement less than one day after the police involved shootings. The police involved shootings are what absolutely has triggered in rash of senseless murders of law enforcement officers across the country. It is reprehensible. The president has blood on his hands and it will not be able to come washed off.”

BLM are living examples of bitter people clinging to religion (Islam), guns, and fear of people who are different (whitey).

I’m assuming since the color of the suspects aren’t being mentioned, their negros.

The media is obsessing over Mrs Trump’s speech and doesn’t think this matters.

He was a Captain? Maybe hierarchy is different from Dept. to Dept. especially in smaller PD’s. But my hats off for those whom are of the thought that they won't ask anything of their subordinates that they wouldn't do themselves.

Prayers and tears out.
