I'm so sick of this shit.
Six law enforcement officers on Friday night were shot -- 1 is confirmed dead -- in three different U.S. cities, their respective agencies have confirmed.
In central Florida, two Kissimmee Police Department officers were shot, chief Jeffrey O'Dell said at a press conference early Saturday morning.
Officer Matthew Baxter, a three-year veteran, died. The other officer, 10-year veteran Sgt. Sam Howard, is in "grave critical condition and the prognosis does not look good," O'Dell said.
Gov. Rick Scott erroneously tweeted late Friday night that both officers had died.
One of the four suspects remains on the run. The officers were investigating suspicious persons.
President Trump reacted to the Kissimmee shootings, tweeting, "My thoughts and prayers are with the @KissimmeePolice and their loved ones. We are with you! #LESM"
In northeastern Florida, two officers were shot, the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office announced.
One officer is in critical condition and the other is in stable condition, the Sheriff's Office said.
Officials said the suspect was shot and killed by officers.
And in reference to both Florida shootings, Gov. Scott tweeted, "Just learned of two @JSOPIO in danger tonight – we stand with ALL law enforcement in Florida."
No further details about the Florida shooting incidents were yet released.
In Fairchance, Pennsylvania Friday night, two Pennsylvania State Police troopers were shot, officials said. Both troopers are stable and expected to survive. The suspect is dead.
"Two state troopers shot and [the] suspect is deceased," Pennsylvania State Police spokeswoman Melinda Bondarenka told ABC News. "We are not releasing any more details at this time."
Josh Krysak, a spokesman at Uniontown Hospital, told ABC News, "I can confirm that one state police trooper was brought to Uniontown Hospital for treatment of injuries suffered in a shooting incident in Fairchance this evening. The injuries suffered by this officer are not life threatening."

Kissimmee was just a small cow town when I moved here 20 years ago.
Now it's all grown up w/gangbangers

The police were so demonized during the past eight years, this is no surprise. Cop killers got winks and dog whistles from the White House and then they lost.
Makes me want to get a concealed/carry permit so I can just protect myself as a civilian.

Maybe SmarterThanYou finally snapped?
Yep, racist Obama dog whistled for the assassination of police officers starting with his racist beer summit fiasco, and then he reinforced his message with dog whistles regarding Trayvon, Michael Brown, and Freddie Gray.
2nd wounded officer has now died. Thanks Obama

Socialism is just the modern word for monarchy.
D.C. has become a Guild System with an hierarchy and line of accession much like the Royal Court or priestly classes.
Private citizens are perfectly able of doing a better job without "apprenticing".

RIP Officer Howard
Baxter was investigating three suspicious people about 9:30 p.m. near Palmway and Cypress streets when Howard came to help and a “scuffle” broke out, O’Dell said. That’s when police say Marine veteran Everette Glenn Miller, 45, shot the officers.
Social media posts showed Miller threatening law enforcement, O’Dell said, “but we never got a call on that.’’
A Facebook page believed to be Miller’s is filled with posts expressing anger over racism, slavery and the KKK.
In one post, he shared a meme encouraging people to “shoot back” with a photo of Martin Luther King Jr.
