The...It is time to seriously pursue the bad apples. They make the good officers, of which there are many, look bad. I think authorities are in that mindset now and we will see movement toward intolerance of any bad actors in police departments. It is very hard to hear about police officers being shot and even harder to think of their grieving spouses and children and parents. Interesting to see your statistics. If we watch too much tv, it's easy to believe the entire world is on fire.

I saw him last week when he visited his Mom and Dad ( my brother ), driving across country to do so. His wife is pregnant with their first, and I do not want anything to happen to him or her or their baby!<br /><br />There are SO many compassionate people in the world but you'd never know it, to listen to the media.

Part of my issue is that it is essential that we base these discussions on good data and sound presumptions. You can find liberal sources and I can find conservative sites ... but how do we know for sure?<br /><br />It matters!<br /><br />The Awkward Widowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03729456066739275695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2764389163852345785.post-48803662575475753742016-07-17T18:35:34.833-07:002016-07-17T18:35:34.833-07:00I agree with you 100%.

I thought perhaps having a Black President would have inspired the Black's, but it seems he has made it much worse and empowered them to riot and misbehave in all sorts of things--like they think they can get away with it.

But it doesn't help their departments or the public to deny that there's a few bad apples who give them all a bad name. It's really sad and scary what is happening with all the ambushes! Sometimes I think if the media didn't cover them then copycats wouldn't copy. Not going to happen, I know, but I can dream. We also need better mental health treatments and laws to help get the crazies off the streets.Misadventures of Widowhoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17262709452281226620noreply@blogger.com
