Latest news is he is a 37 yo. black man out on bail with 8? felony counts. The officers didn't go down without a fight. One fired back from the table and another one made it outside and struggled with him and died there. God rest there souls. I like Huckabee but I would like to know the story behind commuting his 95 year sentence after 11 years. What ever the reason it was a terrible move. Could it have been pressure from the black community to release this poor black man who was being persecuted? I'm sure the dems will get to the bottom of it. In any case I think it is the end of his pos. run for prez. in 2012.

Jack.

Have to be insane to be a cop? Guess I'm insane then lol.... it may be dangerous but it's a rewarding career (not very 'monetarily' rewarding however...). Truth is a lot of officers get into their rutine and let their guard down. I don't blame the officers however, I mean who would ever expect to get shot getting coffee with their friends in a public place at the beginning of their shift?

Yes -they were probably totally surprised -like what happened to the 4 RCMP officers that were gunned down in Alberta -beyond comprehension .

Jack.
I'm wondering what the logic is behind this? It seems out of context.

I don't want to make light of the subject of anyone dying ( except for the scumbag shooter), and I certainly don't know anything about being a police officer. What are they doing sitting in a coffee shop if their shift started? Isn't that what a squad room is for/ to recieve assignments and plan for the day. Sounds like they had a routine and the scumbag knew it.

Having a coffee and a donut, who the fuk cares WHY they were there. Sometimes I go into our lunch room early, real early if I can. Again who the FUK cares. Four guys gunned down
and the question is, Why were they in the coffee shop. Don`t take it the wrong way sir,
but you should get some kind of award for asking that question. You asked the question,
now there is nothing you can say to ward off the peoples thinking of you. Most likey that place was or is there lunch room.

Wow Fast, Tell me how you really feel. I was just curious. I don't know how big the city is where this happened. But if it's a small town that a good percentage of the force lost. Don't get me wrong, I hope when they do find the shooter they show him little mercy.
