Quote:A Fargo police officer fatally shot responding to a routine domestic disturbance call. A 25-year police veteran killed while trying to serve a warrant outside Atlanta. These are just the latest tragedies of cops murdered while performing their sworn duty -- "to protect and serve."

But while President Obama and the Democratic candidates vying to succeed him are putting America's police departments on trial in the court of public opinion in response to a rash of deadly police shootings, the murder of police officers on America's streets is being met with a “deafening silence.”

“I cannot recall any time in recent years when six law enforcement professionals have been murdered by gunfire in multiple incidents in a single week,” National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund CEO Craig W. Floyd said in a statement Friday. “Already this year there have been eight officers shot and killed, compared to just one during the same period last year and represents a very troubling trend."

The relative silence on officer deaths contrasts with the Democratic candidates’ often fiery language on police brutality against African Americans. When it came to the issue of law enforcement at Thursday night’s Democratic debate, the candidates focused almost exclusively on “police reform.” Vermont Sen. Sanders said he’s “sick and tired” of seeing unarmed black people shot by police, likening heavily equipped departments to “occupying armies” – a reference to Ferguson, Mo. and elsewhere. Hillary Clinton hit similar points.

This, amid a rash of violence against police across the country. Jason Moszer, the police officer in Fargo, N.D., was shot during a standoff with a domestic violence suspect Wednesday and died from his injuries the next day. Police Maj. Greg Barney, separately, was shot dead at an apartment complex outside Atlanta, Ga.

So far in 2016, eight officers have been shot to death, with most of those deaths occurring in the past week, way up from this time last year.

Violence against police peaked in 2011 with 72 officers killed as a result of felonious incidents, the highest since 1994. It dropped to 27 deaths in 2013, but nearly doubled to 51 officers killed in 2014.

Quote:But on the campaign trail, anti-police violence is essentially a non-issue, even as candidates are quick to speak out on the alleged mistreatment of civilians at the hands of cops -- often before the facts of the situation are fully known.

Sheriff Paul Babeu of Pinal County, Ariz, told FoxNews.com the recent trend can be traced to Obama’s premature comments about the 2009 arrest of Professor Henry Louis Gates, who was briefly arrested after trying to break into his own house after losing his keys. Though the more complex aspects of the case were not yet known, Obama said “the police ... acted stupidly” and pointed to past discriminations against blacks and Latinos by police.

“That’s his lens on how he sees our heroes and our protectors,” Babeu, who is also a Republican congressional candidate, said. “That’s who he is and Clinton is lockstep in with him.”

“There is an absolute deafening silence from the leaders of our country [on anti-police violence], and it tells us where we are at this time in our society,” he said.

Quote:On the Republican side, candidates are speaking more about violence against police. Front-runner Donald Trump has called the police the “most mistreated” people in America.

“By the way, the police are the most mistreated people in this country, I’ll tell you that — the most mistreated people,” Trump said in January at the Fox Business debate in South Carolina.

Because the POTUS holds a giant press conference every time a cop is killed...

also when a text reads: it dropped from 72 to 24 but doubled to 54 ==> that screams agenda driven bullcrap.

He does every time a street thug gets shot by law enforcement.

Well it's pretty clear that Dems hate cops and don't care when they are killed.

Obama’s rhetorical mistakes are almost as bad as his stupid mistakes.

If a few dozen cop deaths in the USA aren’t worth getting excited about, than neither are the deaths of a handful of black parishioners gunned down by a white racist, or when a black man is shot by police.

Link to every thug that gets shot by law enforcement.
I will save you he does not on every time. Just like he does not run to the media every time that a police officer is show in the line of duty. I personally wish he would not do it at all. In either case. .

I know its the political game to highlight an area that you don't like, but this is silly.

So now you want him commenting on everything that happens in America. I wish you guys would make up your minds!

Your right, he doesn't care when the street thug is white. He only interjects himself in when there is a racial divide to exploit for political purposes.

The president is a busy man. He doesnt have time to stop and make stupid blubbering comments without facts at hand anytime a black professor gets into a drunken stupor and tries to break into his rental home.

Oh wait, he does have time for that. I guess its just the innocent women shot by illegal immigrants and cops murdered by thugs he doesnt have time for.

Hell, BLM throws a party everytime a police officer is killed. It is what those low life b#@%rds live for. Obama could care less himself. His record on the subject is all you need to know how he feels. A dead policeman is what the left celebrates.

you should have your mod privileges taken away. when you have the blue you should rise above not be one of the biggest douchebags on this forum. as bad as BIE or owl are they would never, NEVER pull the cr*p you just did.

you just went three full responses adding nothing to the conversation, making no attempts to debate/argue what I said but to just troll me. the numbers having a small difference had no effect on the outcome of the point I was making nor the example cited. so to BS me on such a trivial topic is trolling pure and simple.
