The local pastor sounds like he’s detached from reality. I guess it makes sense as BLM and Antifa are detached from reality as well

Good job BLM and media, you just got cops shot in KY by spreading lies about this justified shooting! It was a knock and announce warrant, they entered, were shot at and fired back! Shot that killed Taylor was self defense! Hope you’re proud!

Without a doubt.

Is supporting/promoting the idea that LEO’s should not have the same right to defend their own lives even when being shot/shot at while executing a lawful search warrant? WOW PolkCoSheriff

I do not think either side was right or wrong in the actions that took place. The boyfriend says the police did not announce themselves, so he defended his home, but the officers were being shot at so they shot back. Just a terrible situation all around and I hate it came to this

Sick of Insecurity that Biden policies will continue?

Under Trump administration in 2018 we had the highest school shootings since 1970. In 2017 we had the highest gun violence since 1969. Please end violence and return to Law & Order as we had before 2017.

Officer in Breonna Taylor case defends actions, slams mayor in mass email to Louisville copsOne of the officers at the center of the Breonna Taylor shooting sent an email Tuesday to more than 1,000 of his colleagues criticizing Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer and others while defending his actions that March night. Free speech is his too folks. At the end of the day he did his job, the task at hand may have been horribly flawed but he simply showed up for duty that day and was given that task. Folks need to realize that. The Agency failed, not the officers. ehhh, he probably should have had someone read this before he clicked send... some of the adjectives he chose to use are not going to help him
