What the hell does that have to do with a police officer being murdered?

Fishermen, or merchant mariners, or coastguardsmen, or USN sailors dying at sea because of a maritime accident (not warfare) is a tragedy, but has nothing to do with crime.

So why post this here? Are you just a contrarian?

Or do you think a 22-year-old who dedicated her life to serving her community doesn't deserve respect?
