A friend of mine took this pic yesterday morning at the Houston Police Officer's Memorial.

Well done. Drove down Memorial Pkwy on my way home today. 
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

brings tears to my eyes - my son is one hell of an LEO - he loves people and does his job only to help people - then this stuff happens - our society is in a very sad shape right now - pray for help
And may I add this - anyone out there who for a moment thinks they have the slightest idea of what is like to be an LEO - I dare you - I challenge you - go ride ONE NIGHT with an officer and see for yourself firsthand what these officers deal with - mostly scum - I have done it many times with my son - you will have a whole new perspective on LEOs
Sorry for the rant - I get worked up about our law enforcement officers who face death everyday and do not get respect - there are good ones and bad ones as in any profession but overall they are incredible people to do this job

Best photo of Houston I have seen. Civilian LEO's should get more credit than they do IMO, before a tragedy as well.

Very Nice! It is very painful when one of our Brother Officers Fall's in The Line Of Duty, But the Scum Bag that took his life will have to face God and feel the needle enter his vein upon his death if he makes it that long. All Lives Matter!

Sorry for the rant - I get worked up about our law enforcement officers who face death everyday and do not get respect - there are good ones and bad ones as in any profession but overall they are incredible people to do this job My oldest son is also a LEO, and agree with your comments. I also agree that most folks have no idea what the men and women of Law Enforcement deal with on a daily basis. I also whole heatedly agree that these folks are incredible people that serve with honor and integrity day in and day out. OP. great pic sir

While the loss of a brother or sister Peace Officer is difficult, this was just horrific. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family of the slain Deputy and to the Harris County Sheriff's Department.
With that being said, we lost another one this morning. An Abilene Officer was killed at his residence. I won't go into specifics but this was also bad. Prayers go to the Officers of Abiline PD.
