I think describing the deceased officers as 'Four Plods' is a disgraceful insult.

4policemen no where in the world get shot for nothing.thats a fact



who knows..where they on the take?? did the get greedy? who know the reason behind it?.



Theres no daubt there will be a good reason why 4 so called innocent policemen lost there lifes,or maybe perfectly innocent. as they say in england,theres no smoke without fire!



i understand brinsley.



does any 1 know why the west midlands serious crime squad was disbanded in the 80s?



because of corruption.and many people had to serve long sentnces behind bars because of them.then years later,the good old UK tax payer had to cough up millions in compensation.when english justice found them to be innocent!



as i said.no smoke with out fire. the families always suffer in any crime. its the nature of the beast.

Message 7 - yes, a very good point. But we surely can't tar everyone with the same brush? Or should we?

your correct jeannie



as we all know.theres so much corruption in the USA



the mafia run the waste disposal,the meat business.it goes on and on.billions of dollars.



in my mind 4 police men do not lose there breath for nothing..



it just doesnt happen, 4 policemen sat in a cafe useing laptops, seems a strange way to be conducting ur working hours on duty!

no.u cannot tar every 1 with the same brush..your 100% correct.

we proberly will never ever now the real reason behind the execution of the 4 policemen

Msg 9: "we proberly will never ever now the real reason behind the execution of the 4 policemen"



Well you certainly seem to have made your mind up!



Don't you think it would be better to wait to find out the facts before shouting your obvious prejudices against the police on here?

Tea time



i have made up my mind.it was a exicution. tell me it was something other,



and no i had better not wait. as im not shouting my prejudices,im voicing my opinion in a forum,isnt that what a forum is about

if i was prejudiced about police men i would say so .as i do speak my mind in a democratic society that i live in!

so you dont think the 4 policemen were excicuted?

its no issue anyway,what any of us think.

There was some reason behind the murders.

And to be honest,im not here to get excited about it .i have better things to occupy my time!

Why on earth don't people look for more information before opening their big mouths! Such a wonderful 'holier than thou' attitude does you no favors either.



The four of them had met for coffee before the start of their shift and the 'suspected' assailant was a known and previously convicted criminal.



And all four were parents so how about a little care and forethought,people?



PS Lakewood in Washington State is about as normal suburbia as you could hope for!

RE msg 14, vincent1: (...) You are an expert on the subject !! (...)

=> Never use two exclamation marks in the English language, vincent1. And a space between the last word and the (one) exclamation mark is wrong in the English language also. Enjoy your day.

The police in America say it was an execution ,but as the suspect was in an and out of the criminal system for years for various crimes ,it is more likely that the police officers were in the right place for what was probably a demented revenge attack, than an attack on corrupt officers. One of his crimes was child rape and I am sure he would have suffered in the system .Remember the postal workers that were shot by the sacked employee,they were just shot for working in the same place.



Whatever the reasons ,it would be better to wait before talking about corruption and their deaths in the same breath.

If they were anything but brave police officers as their families will take comfort from,then it will out. Meanwhile I hope they get the benifit of the doubt.

Four people have been killed, it doesn't matter whether they were policemen, ballet dancers, anything at all, they were someones son/husband/father/brother and just for the sake of common decency we should show some respect to them and their families. If there was any specific reason why these guys were killed I'm sure it will come out in time but as we do not have all the facts perhaps we should refrain from jumping to conclusions.
