Police say officers have been targeted in Tennessee, Georgia and Missouri in the aftermath of two high-profile killings of black men by law enforcement.
The attack in Tennessee occurred hours before the killing of five police officers in Dallas on Thursday night during a protest. The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation says the attacker told authorities that he was frustrated by the recent killings by police of black men in Louisiana and Minnesota.
Police have not disclosed a motive in Friday’s attacks in Georgia and Missouri, which have been described as ambushes.
In a fourth attack early Friday, a motorist fired at a police car as the officer drove by. In all, four officers were wounded. The officer wounded outside St. Louis is in critical but stable condition. The wounded officers are expected to survive.
We need a national day of support. Rallies in support of police.
Are we heading for complete anarchy?
These Broken Windows type of pulling people over tor routine license and registration needs to be reviewed
Out a registration Chip in the newer cars in the Key Fob and stop this dangerous harassment of average citizens.i am an average working joe in ridgewood.likely we stopped 12 times in my whole life.was actually a frightening experience
Give the police the ability to scan the external license plate and screen for real, reasons to pull someone over..having or not having insurance is not worth anyone’s life including the police possibly walking up to a Felon in a Car .what has happened these past weeks has to be reviewed in a new light as far as license and registration stop and frisks it’s an insane and dangerous process to motorists police and other drivers in the area of the pull over area
11:40…..that is the most ridiculous thing I have heard in a long time!!!
Glad you liked it. Have a safe day
Broken windows theory is proven to be effective. Look and smell NYC now.
My daughter was recently pulled over for a broken light. She did not get a ticket and she got the light fixed the next day. She did not argue with the officer, she knows better.
It was no big deal.
1.53. Glad your daughter was safe.imagine paying someone 150 grand with benefits and then a pension to do light checks and babysit PSEG CREWS to be sure they are safe too.case closed .police are terrific people
I support real policing rather than babysitting solid citizens at massive costs.
Broken windows caught Berkowitz
