PA is not the place to be a cop lately. The state has seen so many officers shooting the last year and several were fatal. I hope the state decides to start reinforcing the law (with manpower also) to stop these senseless murders.

That's no lie. You can also add California, Texas, New York, and the Border Patrol to that list...

Don't worry about it though - we're laying cops off to save money but the streets will be just as safe!
