While your complete lack of empathy is noted, I am wondering what your comments regarding your children have to do with a thread begun to discuss PC ?

Sometimes, threads and conversations can actually be held without political lectures, without judgements, simply an expression of feelings. You obviously are more interested in PC THAN MOST.

An expression of sympathy for some victims is not a condemnation of police; it is simply an expression of sympathy and nothing more.

Making it Political always, and judging based on YOUR life is not only not fair, it is terribly shortsighted and mean.

You are an individual and should be judged like that, not based on me or my family. You should be able to feel sorry, even as you mete out justice.
