At the end of the day, everyone is overreacting. This thread may have been blown out of proportion, but it is simply meant to be a place to honor the police officers that lost their lives just for wearing a badge. Can we just leave this thread at that please?
No sense in arguing over the morality of some police officers, or trying to justify the actions of civilians who are attempting to seek vengeance. We are all humans...and murder is wrong. The corrupt officers are wrong and are murderers. But so are the civilians who kill officers in a twisted sort of attempted vigilante justice.
As long as we can all recognize that murder on both sides is wrong, then this argument need not go any further.
