    yep, I heard, the first one was shot approaching the house to serve a felon in possession of a firearm warrant.
    The others were shot trying to get to and aid the body of the first officer
    They are heroes in my book

    We need gun laws that would prevent this felon from owning a gun.
    Them that don't know him won't like him, and them that do sometimes won't know how to take him

    He ain't wrong, he's just different, and his pride won't let him do things to make you think he's right

    I’m in prayer that my good friend and neighbor isn’t on the casualty list.

    He isn’t answering his phone and this is just the kind of warrant he is tasked with serving.

    No gun laws. Slippery slope.

    It’s what these guys do, everyday for us. Prays for the officers and family. Hope it wasn’t an AR but likely was from the sound of the news report.

    WOW, just saw all this

    Very concerning, I have a couple US Marshalls as clients. Hoping neither of them

    Sounds like they walked into a freaking ambush

    Prayers for all involved.

    Horrific news. Prayers for the families of the fallen and for the wounded.

    I attended a cadet graduation this past Friday at the SC Criminal Justice Academy here in Columbia. God bless and protect all of them.
    Listen to your elders. Not because they are always right but because they have more experiences of being wrong.

    It’s already against the law for a felon to have a gun.

    We don’t have a gun legislation problem. We have a repeat offender problem. I don’t know the statistics but I suspect most people who commit violent crimes should still be locked but our criminal justice system has become a joke. Weak sentences and defense attorneys representing these offenders getting them off playing the system.

    I’m aware. Just as it’s illegal to shoot people. I was just getting out ahead of the “more gun laws” left.

    Sad! I served many warrants, search and arrest. You just never know when crap will hit the fan. It's plain sad.

    The anti-law enforcement rhetoric from a former Administration a few years ago did not help with the disrespect.

    Man that is terrible

    Prayers for all these families and co workers.

    Those of us that have been in Law Enforcement have no idea the dangers our LEO’s face day in and day out


    Anytime I get a chance I always thank them for their service , we take them for granted

    Sure seems like they were ambushed or cornered somehow. That is a lot of fatalities/ hits on those officers.

    Makes me wonder how the perp knew to be setup and waiting on them.

    So so so sad for the fallen officers, families, friends and all the officers that were involved
    I am a nobody, that met somebody, that can save anybody.
