A police officer was killed yesterday by a man threatening to kill his neighbors with an AK-47. Another officer was seriously wounded. Both were responding to a call about the armed man who was killed after he shot the first officers to respond.
We all know that there are rogue officers but most of them are conscientious and caring human beings trying to do an increasingly dangerous job. Keep them in mind whenever you read about some "cop" with power issues.
Both officers were married and had young children.
Allegedly the shooter was a soldier but no facts about him have been released yet.
Not that....
Cardinal Rogoglio is Pope I wonder if the U. S. will consider him Hispanic because he is from Argentina or Italian because of his parentage? I learned long ago that Hispanic means nothing. Mostly now the term is used to mean Mexicans and Puerto Ricans (those with Native American or Black ancestry) and then only extended to others from Spanish speaking countries but of European origin when it is politically useful.
Those "Hispanic" Europeans are usually from a countries 1%.
