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)

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.

I gotcha, just expanding upon what you said.

PS.  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.

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).

I don't care about the anti-police stuff, because most of those people are low life scum bags in real life anyways.

I sure would like to find a conservative message board though. I used to think GD was.

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.

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.

I saw the thread title and being a cop, I came in the thread to see what the OP posted.  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

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.
