Cop Shot in U.S. Every 22 Hours This Year, Huge Increase During Biden-Harris Era, Says Police Union
[Breitbart] Under the watch of the Biden-Harris administration, a police officer in the United States has been shot every 22 hours this year, according to the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP). More than 260 law enforcement officers have been shot so far this year.The War on Cops continues to rage in America,” FOP National Vice President Joe Gamaldi told Breitbart Texas. During the past two years, more than 630 law enforcement officers were shot. “We saw 378 officers shot last year, that is a 60 percent increase since 2018.” “This year alone we have seen over 260 shot, and for reference that is one officer shot every 22 hours in America,” Gamaldi added. The vice president of the national police union representing more than 377,000 law enforcement professionals told Breitbart that assaults on officers are also at a 10-year high. “The causes are obvious,” Gamaldi stated, “a revolving door criminal justice system, 85 percent of cop killers have been arrested before, 71 percent are convicted felons, and because some politicians, media, and activists realized there was a dollar to be made trafficking in anti-police rhetoric, trying to convince the American public we are the enemy.” Gamaldi expressed his frustration with the Biden-Harris administration’s lack of action or support. “To add insult to injury, we haven’t heard a peep from the Biden/Harris administration condemning this historic violence against law enforcement. The silence from the White House is deafening.” “The brave men and women of law enforcement expect the leadership of this country to speak out against the violence, to not allow it to become the norm, and to support us,” Gamaldi continued. “So it was no surprise that the National FOP representing 378,000 police officers across this country endorsed Donald Trump for President of the United States…the true law and order candidate in the ballot.” Posted by: Skidmark 2024-09-08 |
