    This young man seemed to mean so much to so many. It’s normally after someone like this is killed so tragically, the realization that everybody don’t fit the stereotype other people have in their minds. This officer unlawfully killed a so called suspect, but in realization he killed a hero, a son, a brother, cousin, and friend. He killed an innocent man!

    Why is she chewing gum & trying to speak? Not good any time when you are speaking and especially when in front of military men & women. I’m sorry for everyone’s loss of this man, brother, son, friend & military serviceman.

    Football players . Hockey players , Socker players , Boxing and MMA have contact , But police cry like little babies when touched . Drag out the crying towels and mop buckets people the police are in town . Put your ear plugs in so you won't have to hear police cry .

    Ecclesiastes 9:5-6
    King James Version
    5 For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.
    6 Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any thing that is done under the sun.
    AND
    Thessalonians 4:16-17
    King James Version
    16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
    17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
