Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends. We are losing LEO's at an alarming rate these days, whether by the actions of career criminals choosing 'suicide by cop' or by the selfish acts of those here illegally. All of you that put your life on the line for us every day are in our prayers.

As stated by WiscBird, the illegal problem is not just in the southern border states anymore, but it hasn't reached the point where we are going to get anything more than the rhetoric we've already heard from DC. Our local paper won't even print "illegal alien" anymore, instead they edit that to "undocumented immigrant". Talk about your oxymorons!
