“They Take 1 Of Ours … Let’s Take 2 of Theirs,” the post continued, signing off with, “This May Be My Final Post.”"

2 NYPD cops shot dead ‘execution style’ as ‘revenge’ for Garner | New York Post

With the media reports, the talk consistently one way and our leaders proclamations, this is what we get and I think probably will continue to get.

Maybe the police should just pull out of the high crime areas since they don't seem to be welcomed anyway?

you know, as I think back on the posts on TOTV during Garner, Ferguson, etc. what really strikes me is nobody seemed to be on the police side. Most did not even acknowledge that the police were correct in stopping them and correct in telling them to obey commands to get the situation assessed and controlled.

I think back about two months when police were attacked on the street by a man with an axe, whose facebook page was loaded with racist remarks aimed at the white police.

Disturbing, this will not get much attention...certainly not like the others....the axe thing was a one or two day story.

I suppose if you have nothing to gain by supporting the police and you do have something to gain by supporting.......I am very callous at this point. This is like a sick movie.

I am rambling I know, but this is getting very old...it is the same old story for years......

We are all angry; i was just saying that your original post ended with wearing blue in support. The add-on detracted from your thoughtful and moving post. Just my opinion.
