    Officers down

    I am totally sick to my stomach! Two officers (and friends) with my department were ambushed and killed today by a wanted felon. Absolutely sick! Prayers for the fallen and their families!

    So sorry to hear about that. The department I used to work for lost a firefighter and an officer within a week's time a couple of months ago, and I keep seeing fatal OISs at least once a month if not more. It makes me sick to my stomach....

    I am so sorry to read about this, prayers indeed for them and their families - and for you on the loss of your friends.
