7th Division Officer Shot While Responding To Domestic Call

Bravo! Enough said.

Here! Here! That was absolutely one of the best responses to an idiot criticizing the police or their conduct that I think I have ever read. Hat's off to you sir or madam!

Maybe the best response ever written...

Ive answered the boken arm question in another post, but since you seem like the person who just wants to see his own words, ill repeat it. There was ANOTHER incident in which an officer received a broken arm on a traffic accident, and you "heroes" in your infinite selfishness closed down interstates and escorted her to the hospital, where the news interviewed her mother and the mother was laughing about how it was a "heck of a way to spend mothers day".

It goes to illustrate that you do not focus on THE injury, but on WHO has the injury. With as many gunshot crimes as there have been recently, this should again be an easy question to answer. How many other victims who were shot were given road closures and police escorts to the hospital? in each case, what was the factor in deciding that an escort was not needed?

As far as your soapbox speech, well, there simply is NOT evidence to support your claim that there are mass quantities of people who want to kill you just because you are a cop. There isnt even evidence to show that a few readily act upon those thoughts. Im sure this is where you will bring up pittsburgh, andI have already pointed out that it has been 18 years since the last pittsburgh officer was killed in the line of duty.

Even your own website shows that your claims just arent true, because of the miniscule number of cops who die in the line of duty. Just look at how your own agencies have to pad the numbers to make it look even more dangerous. The latest is an officer killed in a traffic accident. Do you somehow justify that an officer killed in a traffic accident at work is somehow more worthy of heroism honors than anyone else who works an honorable job who is killed in a traffic accident? I know your answer, its based upon fake statistics and urban legend.

As to your quote by Jack Nicholsons character...This may come as a shock to you, but wasnt he the guilty one who was trying to justify his intentionally wrong actions? Maybe thats why you so readily quote him.

Also just to appease your accusation, I was in the military, and my unit was involved in the first Gulf war. It simply doesnt make me a hero, because I realize heroism is within the person, not something that you put on with a uniform.

ill stop by and pick you up some muscle ointment, because I can see an injury from you and your pals patting yourselves on the back for no apparent reason.
