The people of this country need to wake up and realize these recent attacks on police officers are undermining our safety and leaving us vulnerable to terrorist and other criminals. There are bad apples everywhere, but the reaction towards those few involved in police work shouldn't endanger our country's security. These men and women are paid little, work difficult jobs, and put their lives on the line to protect us.

So the lessons learned this week: 1. Lock your doors because either intruders or the police can break in! 2. If someone is in your house, call out "is that the police", before you shoot them 3. Get a Kevlar vest for your dog.

I've been in the nose bleed section at Turner Field and you basically have to lean back just so you don't topple over the lower than waist high rail. Adding drinking to that and its a wonder a lot more people haven't fallen.

Google presidential rankings, pick any one you want. Obama is ranked 20 slots higher than Bush in all of them and climbing. Even Carter is ranked higher than Bush. Bush is in the Bottom 8 in almost all of them.

So, if you read the story, police did not have an address for the house they entered and shot the dog! Just a description!

Finding a dog defending the house should have been a clue it was the wrong one!

I hope the homeowner sues the police officers since the dog was an innocent bystander and the homeowner was doing nothing wrong.

The ineptness of DeKalb keeps on keeping on. The DeKeystone Kops going to the wrong house shooting an innocent citizen, killing his dog and then one cop shoots another. You can't make this kind of stuff up. Par for DeKalb.

In fairness, now it's time for every presidential candidate to release all of their emails, and all senators can go next.
