There is going to be a lot more of cops getting killed. And that is to bad. But until the gov back off and start making our employees up holding the constitution you will see more of this.

The people see & hear how the cops deal with people in every day life. Car stops, pedestrian stop. How often people complain on how the cops dealt with them. How local gov dealt with the complaint. The gov finding the cops with in policy will not cut it.
