The turmoil in our country is sad and it’s scary, especially if you’re a cop.And it gets even worse.Those who condone evil are posting officer’s personal information on social media and now cops’ families are in danger.
It seems a lot of the country is operating in dear and emotional reaction to the cries of the masses, whether they’re rational or not.NASCAR, trying to reopen its season with a series of races and fans being allowed back to when they go to Homestead, has decided banning the Confederate flag is a good idea.In a similar vein, one college has fired its security director over a justified shooting when we was a cop in 1994.
To his credit, President Trump says renaming military bases that honor Confederate leaders is off the table.We have a slate of stories we did not get to on WIDE OPEN WEDNESDAY and we’re not likely to get them in today…however, Florida Today’s John Torres will join us in hour 3 with another look at developments in MURDER ON THE SPACE COAST.
