I predict the deed was done by one of San Antonio’s many gang members.......tho, of course, I don’t know that for sure.

After reading about that marine who was slaughtered by the big brother gestapo its hard to find sympathy for slain LE.

What in the h*ll are you talking about? What's the matter with you? Are you comfortable with grouping any member of a profession into one class? You need professional help.

One has absolutely nothing to do with the other.

An innocent man being killed is an innocent man being killed. You need to get a life.

There is a difference between some hick sheriff's department in New Mexico and the deputies who patrol San Antonio, a city bigger than Boston.

Sounds like a target of opportunity. I wonder if the cartels are trying to send a message?

I am not a big fan of law enforcement but I don’t wish any of them dead. They, for the most part, are doing their best to help the communities where they work and live. They have families and loved ones just like we do. And when the cops are targets of random violence, it doesn’t bode well for the rest of us.
