    That's terrible for the officer and his family.

    At least this wasn't a repeat of 2007 where 32 died. 33 if you count the gunman as a life, which I don't.

    Why we should train. One never knows when you may be on top of an incident, anywhere. Although NOT politically correct for an LEO, this is why I frequently tell citizens to consider getting their ccw permit, learn to use their firearm and keep it close by. Often I'll even plug for the NRA to help protect the right to have those arms. And as always, another brother LEO paid the ultimate price. My prayers for the family of another fallen hero
    Honor is a language universally understood, yet spoken by few.

    It's stupid, that poor police officer was doing his job when this nuts just walked up and opened fire, it sounds like this was all over some girl who mite have gone to V-Tect I herd there was a note of some kind. My heart goes out to that officer and his family. he was an Iragi war vet also.
