Excellent social message. And the police have to protect all human life.. As a parent, human being, and grandparent, I would niot take achild to a parade. Our cuntry has illegals from jails amd mental institutions , i am not anti- police..Police get killed regularly, as IF they intentionally are killers, parades are on TV, they are unsafe for kids or any living being, they attract killers, condolences go to all., Who lstst lives.

'Nearby children play' -- chilling and all-too-common these troubled days...

Yes the procession for the last of four officers shot by active shooter is today. A total of 8 cops were shot and four died. It made the national news. Happened in a neighborhood in east Charlotte North Carolina. So sad 8 kids lost their dads!
