Dallas, Baton Rouge and now Palm Springs. Multiple police officers slain in the War on Cops.

Maddening and sad.

Tragic.

But the idea that they were responding to a “simple” family disturbance is at odds with some reports that the father told a neighbor that his son had a gun and wanted to kill cops. I believe the neighbor called the police. They showed up, and were suddenly gunned down. Were these officers informed of the danger of this situation? So many questions.

There will be another briefing soon.

O God of spirits and of all flesh,
Who hast trampled down death,
and overthrown the devil,
and given life to Thy world!
Do Thou Thyself, O Lord,
give rest to the souls of Thy departed servants
... especially our forefathers, fathers,
brethren and sisters,
here and everywhere laid to rest;
officers and soldiers who have laid down their lives
for faith and homeland:
Give rest to all of them in a place of light,
in a place of repose,
whence all sickness, sorrow,
and sighing are fled away.
Pardon every sin committed by them in word,
deed, and thought,
in that Thou art a good God,
the Lover of Mankind;
for there is no one that liveth and sinneth not;
for Thou alone art without sin,
Thy righteousness
is an everlasting righteousness,
and Thy word is truth.
For Thou art the resurrection and the life
and the repose of Thy departed servants
O Christ our God,
and unto Thee do we send up glory,
together with Thine unoriginate Father,
and Thy most holy, good,
and life-creating Spirit,
now and ever and unto the ages of ages. Amen.

I am saddened about this.

These officers showed up to help make sure members of the public were not hurt, then this.

Police officers pay the price of Protecting and Serving.

Well it says they were responding to a family disturbance. Most people are unaware that these are among the deadliest calls police face. So I am not so sure that the wars on cops statement is applicable for this.

But maddening and extremely sad for sure.

Not doubt these cops were, as Hillary says, born racists.

This is making me cry. All these innocent officers out there protecting us. One guy was a couple months from retirement and the other cop just had given birth to a baby 4 months ago. This is ALL ON OBAMA.

If Obama and Hillary didn’t give a damn about the “Benghazi 4”, why would they give a damn about a couple of cops?

See how many Democrat politicians say a thing about this third or fourth killing of police officers in the last two weeks.

Let us know if you see or hear anything, or if you don’t.

One of the dead cops had a 4 month old child...the other was scheduled to retire at the end of the year.

We just lost a LA County Sheriff’s deputy this week. Shot in the face by one of Obama’s sons after doing some robberies.

Domestic trouble calls are the most dangerous calls a police office answers. So don’t do them. The police interject themselves between a man and his wife when they are already upset... What could go wrong? Let the couple work it out themselves or with relatives and friends or man of the cloth, a police presence makes it worse. The couple chose each other, they can live with it. Why does the government have to get involved in everything anyway.
