On a personal note, I’ve been to six in the line of duty death funerals. To this day, of the ones that got to me and still does, was my good friend who went down on his motor and was killed ten minutes after I parted company with him. The unexpected death of someone close who you’d just been joking around with and talking shop with left me with more of a sense of our mortality than any event in my life. Any unecessary loss of innocent life is tragic. Thats just the one that hit the mark with me
