Rep. Ken Buck, R-Colo., introduced a bill in Congress that would make it a hate crime to target a police officer. Dubbed the Blue Lives Matter Act of 2016, the bill would expand the federal hate crime statute to include law enforcement officers who are targeted for acts of violence because of their jobs.
Buck said that the law would provide federal prosecutors an extra measure of authority in cases in which police are gunned downed and ambushed in the line of duty. “It would work the same way as existing hate-crime laws do which allow federal prosecutors to bring additional charges in cases in which victims are targeted for violent crime because of their background.”

shoot them
Also Ron hale were witnessing the days that the need for over militarized cops and huge stacks of laws is through. Just wait opinions change once some one has a negative interaction
Hate speech against the police should be taken as seriously as such speech is taken when directed at the president. ANYONE expressing a desire to harm a policeman should be arrested and prosecuted – it doesn’t matter what group they are connected to.
Why don’t we play a little game with b.l.m. for example for every police , b.l.m.put down let’s put 2 b.l.m. down , let see how much they like that
All lives matter even the preborn and the old.
Love it. God bless the Blue lives matter…AMERICA ALL LIVES SHOULD MATTER HERE AND WORLD WIDE…WE ARE ALL GOD’sCHILDREN AMEN..
Lets see how it will last…?????????…2016
SHOULD BE ANY POLICE OFFICER ,PERIOD
“Hate crime” is something that should not exist. Punish the crime, that’s it. It’s simply the state trying to make certain lives worth more than others. I do not agree with this.
Great
