I’ve been a Police Officer in this anti police state for 18 years, I am so sorry for your loss and if I could, I would donate both of my legs and arms to bring these fine men back…. They are heroes and will be remembered eternally as such Our system has failed us, our leaders and politicians have failed us, starting at the top of every politician in CT. all the way down. We have emboldened criminals and handcuffed our police. Blood is on their hands and they know it, Their thoughts and prayers and showing up at Vigils to show face can’t hide what they really stand for or believe anymore. You know who you are and you are responsible for the lawlessness in this state Period. God Bless these Officers and their families. Ashamed in CT. G Zach
