As a veteran I am absolutely pissed off at what is going on to police officers getting killed by thugs in America over the last week or two. These people killing police officers had to only be activated by Obama and Hillary's race baiting, that has gone on after the police shootings of two African American males in Minnesota and Louisiana two weeks ago. Black Lives Matter and the New Black Panthers terror groups is likely behind this cold blooded murder of three police officers who took the oath like I did. If these groups keep killing Police in cold blood, they're going to get something worse then police when either the UN blue helmets come in or we get Federalized police.
