I sincerely doubt that anyone here in The Villages would support those low-lifes!

I’ll tell you how to get the cities back under control. How do you think THE GREATEST GENERATION of WWII would have handled this? People today have to make a decision. Are we going to turn a blind eye, watch our cities burn and get destroyed by thugs who have been empowered by people in charge who let them, or do we do what we know has to be done? Let the police and the National Guard go in to these cities with force kick some but, make arrests, and restore order. And I don’t mean peaceful protesters. I’m sorry but we have been dealing with our current unrest with social worker mentality instead of brute force.

That's unfair to animals. They are savages and low-life scumbags.

I hope they catch the scumbag who did this abominable act and puts him away, for the rest of his life. I feel the exact same way toward anyone who unjustifiably tries to murder, re: execute, another human being.

The shooter should get his trial and quickly executed for murder.

The people blocking access to the hospital should be arrested.

This behavior cannot be tolerated

Those who ignore it are being naïve. Pay attention everyone. I cannot be political here and I am aware of that. So I hope that this isn't deleted.

Just for the record: "Law and Order and respect for the Police" isn't even on the top 10 lists of the "very foundation of America."

America was founded as the direct result of civil protest against the government. The "founding fathers" were all British - some from England, some from Scotland, Ireland, and Wales. Their countries had been at constant war over monarchy rule and religious persecution by their own government.

They came here to get AWAY from all that, and to create what they believed could be a utopia.

Law and Order was one of the combination of methods to firm up their ideas, but they were not one of the ideas themselves. Law and Order is a tool, nothing more or less, and if it isn't implemented efficiently, it will fail. We are seeing its failure, at the current junction of our country's ongoing history.

For the record: I don't support anyone who would shoot a police officer, any more than I would support a police officer who shoots someone who isn't being violent (whether with a weapon or with a drug-induced outburst). I don't support violence, period. And anyone who blocks a hospital needs to be removed from the premises. Peacefully if at all possible - cuffed and charged if necessary but without violence.

It looks like both officers will survive. One was shot in the jaw and the other in the forehead. I suspect neither one will recover fully but we can and should be hopeful. There is $100K available for information about the shooter. I doubt it will be very long before he is apprehended - somebody will turn him in for the money. Hopefully the justice system will make an example of him.

Anyone arrested who is on public assistance should be removed and allowed to find something productive to do with their time like get a job.

This behavior cannot be tolerated

Why weren't they arrested?

The failure of law enforcement to do their job is contributing to the outrageous lawlessness that continues to occur.

Very true, putting them in jail for a period of time will make most of them find other ways to amuse themselves

I must say, after reading this TWICE - I do not have an idea as to what point you're trying to make. USA Law & Order is right or wrong? "Not implemented efficiently...its failure" -- What do you mean???

The violence in our cities needs to come to an end....peaceful protesters need to be told to go home...anyone still creating a problem needs to be dealt with quickly with an appropriate show of force and treated like the thugs that they are. No one has the right to burn, loot, throw rocks at police, destroy property and businesses and create the chaos that is going on....that is not one of our freedoms

The consequences for this type of unruly, uncivilized and dangerous behavior need to be enforced.

Where are the leaders in these cities and the religious leaders??? Why are they silent???
