    It would be naive to go into the job thinking that any government gave a shite about you .

    Let's re-title the original post - 'Police Officer', please.

    Making belittling remarks about a man shot dead doing his duty only make the OP look like a complete plork.

    RIP.

    If the officer was armed, would it have made a difference? Maybe. The baddies seem to get guns easy enough.
