For Officer Rafael Ramos & Officer Wenjian Liu:

The law-officer begins his day either with the thoughts of putting in just another tour-of-duty or with a different notion and that being how to get through one more one more murder, one more spouse or child beating, one more burglary, one more experience of seeing what a drunk driver can to himself or even worse what he can do to others. Collectively these incidents, and many more, create immense anxiety for the officer and for so many others.
The percentages are clear that most law-officers are stalwart and honest human-beings who provide safety and protection for all of the public - more so than mostly any profession. To attack a law-officer, who is without any forewarning, is probably the lowest act another human-being can do to prove he is not only cowardly, but solid evidence that the attacker is unworthy of even an ounce of respect. No army of any nation or culture who has honor would disagree.
We regret that Rafael and Wenjian would be the next law-officers to be slain by such a despicable fellow human-being and who would then do as so many similar types have done - murder one's self - the easiest path away from facing any accountability for his deed. Self-destruction has historically been the chosen path of the coward.
We pray for Wenjian's and Rafael's family, co-workers, friends and all who care about them. May they be ready to reach-out to one another in the days ahead.
We are proud to render Officer Rafael Ramos & Officer Wenjian Liu, soldiers-of-the-law, a final salute.
