Police Died while escorting Presidential Motorcade

Another casualty of presidential travel has been suffered in Albuquerque, N.M., where police officer Germain Casey, 40, died after his motorcycle crashed Monday escorting a motorcade that was returning President Bush to the Albuquerque airport.

The accident was reminiscent of another fatality in Hawaii last fall, where a motorcycle-riding police officer was killed as he lost control of his bike while escorting Bush's motorcade at rain-slickened Hickam Air Force Base.

The Secret Service maintains that the duty of local police escorts is to clear traffic for the presidential motorcade to maintain a "reasonable rate of speed'' that enables the president to travel from place to place with less risk to his own safety.

Very sad. What's wrong with you people? Wishing a death upon an individual is totaly wrong. Hate doesn't go to the point where you wish this. Grow up. How would you feel if someone said, "Gah I wish your daugher/son died in that car accident." Again, Grow up people!

@TheMarsVo1ta It's not the point. Just because he is a fellow police officer doesn't mean he isn't a regular human like you and me. He's someone child, parent, cousin, husband......Get the point? It's not right, and people need to grow up or get off Youtube. It's people that say hateful things on here that are responsible for this messed up society that we live in today.

@nopiluvin

I think it stems from idiots posting comments on videos where police kill innocent people and the victim is antagonized. This has nothing to do with growing up. People find this justified based on criminal and immoral actions done onto citizens; it shouldnt be more wrong here, especially how the cop killed himself and nobody is allowed to defend themseles from cops.
