Default Two LEOs killed in Charlotte area this week

One was killed at a car wash a few days ago and last night during a shootout along a highway, perp is dead in this one.

And yeah we need to defund the police... Murders are way up this year all over.

As much as I would love to blame idiot (left or right) politicians, it's the fault of the murderers.

Criminals fear nothing these days, it's badge of honor to kill a cop or rival (or just about anyone else too).

Hanging from the gallows has no badge, no honor, and no street cred.
All the video these days, security cams, phones, etc...no need for trials or jurys...straight to the rope.

I assume people are rioting and looting to protest LEO deaths.

No?

Huh, imagine that.

Anyone else notice the violence is page 2 news now, murders barely mentioned now. Years past an LEO killed was national news, now won't make page 12.
You have to dig for crime stats, which are really high this year but not reported like in the past.
Once again media shows its bias.

Should someone start a Cop Lives Matter movement?
