Cars and trucks, not guns, are becoming the No. 1 threat to police officers.See the journalistic sleight of mind being performed here? When vehicles are involved, the officers are killed by "traffic accidents." When guns are involved, they're killed by...uh..."guns."
Traffic accidents have killed 429 officers nationwide this decade, according to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund. Nearly one in five was hit by a vehicle.
In contrast, guns have killed 351 officers, the memorial fund says...
The number of police killed in traffic -- whether driving their cruisers or standing outside them -- has risen 40 percent in 30 years, while gun deaths have declined 36 percent, Mendelsohn said.

How many are killed by drive-thru donuts? Better yet, how fast will they all cut and run when TSHTF from the illegal alien invasion?
Great! Now your going to get them to ban cars to! How am I going to be able to go shooting now?
Thank alot, David!
When everything becomes illegal, then everyone's an outlaw.
Ooooha.
I can hardly wait.
Maybe their mommies told these cops to go play in the traffic when they were young uns.
I think David hit the ball out of the park. The word play used by the MSM is just disgusting. Cop gets hit by a car, traffic accident. Cop gets shot, ANOTHER GUN DEATH.
