    When I saw the story the 4th officer was in grave condtion...how sad that he passed as well. My dad grew up in the bay area and he said that Oakland has always had its dangerous areas but when something like this happens it makes everyone stop and think. I hope that some day we can figure out why people feel like they need to do something this sensless and tragic and maybe do something about changing it.

    I can only hope...

    Last I heard on the news was that Officer Hege was pronounced brain dead. They have him on life support until the decision is made to let him go. That decision may have already been made by this time.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    "That decision may have already been made by this time"

    They were keeping him on life support to donate his organs. Another selfless act.
    I heard there were people taunting the first two officers during the first attempeted arrest. So so sad. So many families & friends with such a great lose. All so young. My heart goes out to all of them.RIP.

    Yes that was just Horrible.. I wish the GunMan would have Shot HimSelf first & saved the 4 lives of the innocent men.. I just cant stand for someone to shot someone else before they shot themselves.. NoOne has the right to take someone elses life.. All is just so Horrible & Sad..

    ~~~Thank You Very Much {Kim} kimlovescats for the Grand Siggy~~~
