Please please please keep your head on a swivel. We have had several (way too fucking many) officers murdered in the last few days. It is bad out there right now guys, please be careful.
The murdered officer in Texas hits close to home for my family and I don't want to see anyone else go through that. (For fucks sake don't get this locked. If you have some BS to spew, go the fuck somewhere else) |

Everyone needs to keep their head on a swivel. Everyone knows why and what for too.
|
|
In.
Someone has to be in. If I see any I know at the gas station, then shall go forth to them and watch with my beady little eyes for their safety. |

My BIL is a LEO so I got think about him a lot. I make it a point to tell every LEO I meet to stay safe.

There are people I really care about that are in areas that make them targets, law dogs and civilian. I've been racking my brain lately trying to figure out how to help better prepare them. |

If you are white you are a target. If you are a white police officer you are a high value target. Stay frosty.
|
|
Maybe the Oathkeepers need to stand in front of the Police Station.
|
|
But Black lives........And mattering.
And its racist if other lives matter. Especially police. What are you guys so racist? |
|
|
I'm all for calling out bad apples. But I've got a lot of LEO friends and colleagues, and I worry a great deal for their safety.
|
|
Thanks for the reminder, but I would hope ALL have had their heads on a swivel vigilantly since October of last year. (NYPD axe attack)
If not since then, at least since December. (The execution of two NYPD officers as revenge for Garner and Brown). |
|
Thanks for the thoughts OP. I have had several citizens stop me the last few days to thank me and tell me to be safe.

Crazy world out there.
I have had more people the past 6 months flag me down and tell me "thanks" or just want to shake my hand and say "be safe" than ever before. Stay safe all. |

I'd say get a digital scale and weigh five round of duty ammo and shoot it, then weigh the rest of your duty rounds and toss any that dont meet spec. It might not catch a bad primer, but it might.

More likely to be killed from a traffic related accident. So drive safe.

I don't recognize this country any more.
Police getting gunned down with alarming frequency. The flag being used as a floor mat and toilet paper by people that have done nothing but leech off of the taxpayer. Admitted socialists and communist in government positions. Racist calling for the death of others for no other reason than they feel bad about their situation and have to blame it on someone else. This stuff crept up on us slowly and in small doses it is merely annoying, but when you look at the whole picture at once, it is jarring. |

Considering what has happened in the last week, I appreciate the OP taking the time express his thoughts and remind us to be safe. As I have said, I have had several people not connected to law enforcement take the time to tell me the same or similar things. I took the time to tell them thank you when they've done that in person, it was a nice gesture. I will take the same time to say thank you here to the OP and now I guess anyone else that has posted. |

You actually touched on something I was considering starting a thread about- Violent crime is at its lowest rate in 50+ years. Its only seems like shootings are becoming more prevelant due to the liberal media and 24hr news cycle. Now with regards to the recent influx of officer shootings- Is there a giant uptick as our media portrays? Or is it the same concept as above with say; school shootings? Its actually the same amount or lower as always, but it just getting more coverage lately? Ala- divide and conquer we claim they use against us during school shootings? I really dont know the facts of OIS from recent (50+ years ago) history Thanks in advance |

How many in the last month? 7 in the month of August. Over the whole nation. Summer months are always higher as crime is higher. Average per month so far is 3.25. A few high profile killings does not an epidemic make. Just like when a nut shoots up a school or theater doesn't mean gun owners are out of control. |

I appreciate the thoughtfulness. I was just at Chipotle and the guy in front of me paid for my dinner. Thank You stranger!
