    For the first part of this year I lived and worked in the Lakeland area and as our jobsite warranted full-time EMT support I got to know a number of firefighters and EMT's for Polk County including a couple the worked with Polk County SWAT.


    Thoughts and prayers to Deputy William's family.

    LAKELAND, Florida (CNN) -- Police said Friday they had shot and killed an accused cop killer who was hiding in thick wooded, brush after a massive two-day manhunt in Florida.

    "Ladies and gentlemen, God will be the judge and jury this time," said Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd, during a news conference.

    Ditto from me 1369. These folks, as witnessed in the above article, lay their lives on
    the line everyday in what seems like the most mundane of duties, a traffic stop. Bless
    them all.

    Add this to that illegal er that shot the Houston cop while in the back seat of the cruiser a week or so ago. Gut pulled over for a traffic violation and put into the cop car. Pulls a gun and shoots the cop in the front seat.

    Good bless those illegals.

    I'm glad to hear that this peice of cop killer has been erased.

    Someone who is willing to take the life of a peace officer is someone who doesn't care and wouldn't hesitate in taking the life of anyone else for that matter.

    My dad is a cop and I have other family members and friends that are officers and Border Patrol Agents.

    If anything like that happened to one of them I'd want the same thing for the criminal.

    Add this to that illegal er that shot the Houston cop while in the back seat of the cruiser a week or so ago. Gut pulled over for a traffic violation and put into the cop car. Pulls a gun and shoots the cop in the front seat.

    Yeah, because that's what all illegals do - shoot cops. Americans never ever do that.

    I read briefly about the Houston shooting and found it odd that (again, this is from what I remember reading) the shooter was placed in the back of the officer's car and then pulled a pistol from his waistband and shot him in the back of the head.

    Yeah, I will never blame the victim here -- it just struck me as odd too. Seemed like it would be standad procedure.

    I think they've admitted the officer either did not search the guy adequately or skipped it all together. He made a mistake.
