Anytime is unacceptable, but in the past several months the Violence against Police officers has been OUTRAGEOUS. And it starts with NO RESPECT, NO PUNISHMENT. This trend has been engraved into Law Enforcement by bleeding heart Chief's, Councils, Mayors, ect. "HANDS OFF POLICING ".Sergeant Shields Thank you Brother for your Service and Ultimate Sacrifice, God Bless you your family Department friends. No ammount of words can take away the pain ,I Pray that a change is made FAST in how PUNISHMENT is swift on all who injure or murder a Police Officer .I was shot twice in the line of duty as a 32 yr career and Lieutenant in November 2018 and returned fire killing him. God left me here for a reason, I push officials to the MAX on Capitol Punishment PERIOD on any assaulting on Police officers. RIP. my Brother. All my Brothers and Sisters reading this , Prepare your mind to TACTICALLY SOUND

The dangers of a career in law enforcement are evident in the death of Sergeant Shields, a trained and skilled officer and yet his death occurs when involved in a mundane, everyday action. Obviously, there are no such moments in the life of a police officer. My grief is compounded by several deaths in recent days in Virginia and Pennsylvania. Stay vigilant my brothers and sisters.
