I hope they get a full recovery. So many of the “wounded” in these shootings are paralyzed, have brain injuries, etc. Their lives are changed dramatically. I hope the officers recover completely.

As the years go by, I fear the numbers of good men and women wanting to wear a badge and put up with this bullshit are going to diminish.

Police departments all over the country are having a hard time finding recruits, are even lowering standards to draw more in, e.g. previous drug use

“Expected to survive” is fairly minimal encouragement. I’m more concerned about all these folks who jumped in to protect than I am about the Congressman who so callously voted to endanger them.

Above and beyond in the face of certain peril, they put their lives on the line for others. Brava! Bravo!
