NOT AGAIN!!! It’s a tough and sad time for the good guys.

Wyatt, so sorry for the loss of your friend/colleague and for a protector of law and order.

There’s really not enough we can say. Thanks to all who take on the badge and have to deal with scumbags and risk losing their own lives in dealing with said scumbags. I know there’s no financial gain that could be worth that risk, and I know sometimes when we try to describe the honor of those wearing the badge it’s easy for others to be cynical and dismissive, but it’s true- I believe there’s no higher honor.

I know this has got to weigh on you, your family and those who serve on the Philly PD. My prayers are with you.

Thanks again, folks. I’m sure my irrational bloodlust will subside in a day or two, but for now, I’m just really pissed off.

Wyatt,

I am so sorry for your loss. It’s been a very sad, very rough year for all of you at the PPD. I’m not sure how much more you all can take. It’s devastating.

My thoughts and prayers are with all of you at the PPD, and with Sgt. Simpson’s family.

May he R.I.P.

Our sincerest sympathies for this man’s family, friends and coworkers. It’s hard to swallow sometimes that the good guys die and the bad guys flourish so often.

I’m so very sorry at this terrible, terrible loss. My heart goes out to his family – no words are sufficient…

The nature of this job is there are no guarantees that when you strap on your gear you’ll return home. God bless the men & women in blue.
