There should be a special prosecution of those who do harm to police officers. I'm pretty fearless but there is no way I could muster the nerve to do what cops do.
The criminals are only hurting themselves when they kill a cop. I can't see why they don't understand they are hurting the very ones that are protecting their (the perps) families.
I believe some sort of awareness should be taught in schools. I was taught as a child to have respect for police officers and never to be afraid to find one if you needed help. Maybe teaching that to little kids would help..but maybe not.
I worked in a trauma unit for a few years and made some good cop friends. I also saw what is going on out there and it could quite possibly be beyond saving.
