I live in Tallahassee, FL, and I don't know if this news got very far, but there was a cop killed here. Evidently, this hasn't happened since sometime in the 80's (so I've been told). I watched the funeral procession through town of all the law enforcement vehicles, and it was one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. There were over a thousand vehicles from all over the state, and some from Georgia, including US marshalls, agriculture, dot, fish and wildlife, like everything with law enforcement had at least one vehicle representing. When the first car arrived at the destination, the last hadn't even left the start point yet, I think about 7 or 8 miles away. It really moved me, just thought I'd share.

Really? That seems strange I know it happened here just recently. They didn't do all that for the funeral though.

is that the guy that got shot in the head a few times cause they got a call of a robbery or something?

thats how my funerals gonna be, just not law enforcement people. It will be my millions of friends and all of the ladies that wanted me but just couldnt have me. Oh, all of you guys will be there too right??

Sorry dude, but I live in Southern california.. Happens alot out here..

Still sad to hear though..did the guy have family?

this is like asking did the guy have a mother

Yeah, I hear he was wearing a bullet-proof vest, got shot several times, the last of which was in the back of the head. He still managed to call dispatch and give a description of the suspect and vehicle.

We still got that small-town attitude, so it's like a huge deal here. Yeah, he had family. My brother is in classes with one of the guys daughters. She'll probably end up failing all her classes, seeing as how it's an intense course where you can't miss much. That guy who killed the cop is seriously screwed.

yup, happens all the time. i was watching the news last night and heard like 20 homicides last weekend. and there was also some **** happening in South Central the day the new police cheif was let in

damn, glad I live here
