84. I'm truly sorry for your loss.
I am not 'anti cop'. I have friends and relatives that are law enforcement. In my job we deal with them regularly on different levels - sometimes they are first on the scene of lines down and sometimes we need them to close lanes or roads. Even more so during storms.

I sincerely hope that your fiance's killer is found and punished to the fullest extent.

If the problem were simply 'the guns', then prisons would be safe. However, the murder rate in prison is alarmingly close to that of the free world. Without guns. Or knives (except rudimentary handmade weapons). Why is that?

Hating on guns takes the focus off the criminals and places it on the tool they used. That is a mistake in my humble opinion.
