One Night in Dallas

Two nights ago in Dallas, Texas five of my brothers were murdered by a racist thug that only wanted to kill white people. Especially white cops. Well, he killed five and wounded six others, plus a civilian woman that was trying to protect her children. Then more of my brothers tried to get him to give himself up. The racist thug refused. He was killed by a robot carrying an explosive device.

As we all know this thug was upset because two other black men had been killed by police earlier in the week. It didn't matter that we really don't know all the facts yet, he had made up his mind that the police murdered these men and he was going to take his revenge. Well, this POS got his revenge and then he got his due.

In the shooting in LA, there is some cell phone video. I've seen what is online, but it doesn't show the first part of the contact nor do we know what was said. The fact that police were responding to a man with a gun call already put them on heightened alert. After shots were fired, it appears that a gun was in fact removed from the pocket of the suspect. The Sheriff immediately sells his men down the river by calling for a DOJ investigation. Remember, this is the same DOJ that refused to indict Hillary Clinton.

For the incident in MN I have seen no video, not even the Facebook video of the woman that was in the car. I've read conflicting reports about why the car was stopped from a broken tail light to the driver looked similar to an armed robbery suspect that occurred four days earlier. But in the end a man was dead and even the Governor was calling for this officer's head before the investigation had really begun. White Democratic Governor Mark Dayton stated that the shooting was racially motivated and promised that there would be justice for the dead man. Did he not realize that the officer is Hispanic? Or does that matter? Is every cop just looking for an excuse to shoot black men? Somehow I don't think so.

Philando Castile and Alton Sterling are dead after being shot by the police. That much I do know. The rest, I don't. The important thing to remember here is that, neither do you. Neither did Micah Johnson. Yet he choose to take the lives of five men that had nothing to do with either shooting. How does that compute. In the disturbed mind of Johnson this somehow did.

Now people are debating using the robot to dispatch Johnson. Some are saying that this is akin to warfare and not police work. They blew him up instead of shooting him. Dead is dead. He wasn't going to give up, he wanted to keep killing and he probably didn't care if he died that night. He had to figure that he would. So how he went is really of no consequence.

Now my Dallas family is hurting. So is the rest of my family, here and around the world. I've heard from a brother officer in Greece and he and the rest of his department were shocked to hear what had happened. Now we must bury our brothers. We will and pay them the respect they deserve.

The last two days I haven't really felt like going to work. Not many of us have. Yet I still got up early, went to the gym, put my uniform on and reported for duty by 0600. I'll do it again tomorrow too, as will the rest of my brothers and sisters.

The people chanting "Pigs in a blanket, fry "em like bacon" will not prevail. They are domestic terrorist. They have racist motivations. Tonight they are calling for a "purge" of officers. Meaning to kill as many as they can.

Don't think that we as an organization aren't aware. We will be ready. We will continue to do our jobs. We are not afraid.
