Re: However...
yep, I'm so not buying the "officer safety" line.
If you really want to shoot a cop, just walk around till you see one, then shoot. That's what this last nutter did.
note: I do not condone violence against cops, so please don't do that. I also do not condone lackluster prosecutors when they end up on the defense in court though, which is why there is such an anti-cop mentality lately.
