shot dead breaking up a robbery...left three children and a wife. A Sargeant who had just been promoted and was a few days short of his 40th birthday.

It appears as though he was shot with an AK-47...

According to witnesses, his dying words were to tell his wife that he'd miss her.

A long time ago, a buddy of mine who practiced dentistry up in central PA told me that in his depressed area, if someone ran for office and promised jobs for everyone, new infrastructure (which is badly needed), schools, roads, and the like, BUT WANTED TO BAN BAZOOKAS FROM PRIVATE OWNERSHIP, he or she would lose in a landslide.

WTF are these weapons doing on the street?
