Where's the media? Where's the mob? Where's the out cry? This is truly sickening to watch. Fake out cry when criminals are killed, but nothing when the criminals kill police.

The police officers were not using full force to put this criminal down because of the mob and pathetic politicians. Therefore, the criminal was able to get free and shoot the police officers. Woe unto this evil generation!
There are plenty of videos like this on the internet and it is all over recent news. Whether they used appropriate force is a question but difficult to assess. There are many police officers killed in the line of duty in the USA every year.

That's sad. Were the police actually killed then? I was confused by the title since I'm not sure if they actually died. Either way that's horrible.

It looked lethal, but the URL of the video looked a little suspicious to me since it wasn't actually YouTube from what I could tell since it started with "youtu.be". So I searched for it and couldn't find it in recent news. Which is why I found the current officer killings database. There were more officer killings some years ago, which doesn't really mean anything.
We have a "blue lives matter" flag for just what the OP is suggesting, and people use it on facebook.
There is the "Blue Lives Matter" movement for people fed up with the riots and hate crimes of certain other movements:

Yeah I like those kinds of things. I always have the highest respect for policemen and women. Just because there are a few bad apples isn't saying much. There are bad teachers, bad preachers, pretty much bad people in every kind of job but generally speaking the good ones outnumber the bad and police are usually the good guys.
But you should read this story on the "Blue Lives Matter" that was corrupted by extremists: Police chief bans 'Thin Blue Line' imagery, says it's been 'co-opted' by extremists
From the story:
The "Thin Blue Line" flag, which resembles an American flag but has a blue stripe, is a sign of support for law enforcement but has also come to signal opposition to the racial justice movement and a symbol of white supremacy or support for the Blue Lives Matter cause.
Roman said that the flag has been "co-opted" by extremists with "hateful ideologies" in the promotion of their views that "run counter" to the department's "core values" and that it impedes "our efforts to build trust."
"Guided by our core values, my responsibility to ensure your safety as best I'm able, and by what I believe in my heart is the right thing to do under present circumstances, I am moved to enact specific measures to distance UWPD from the thin blue line imagery and the fear and mistrust that it currently evokes for too many in our community," she wrote.

Yeah, I know a few officers and they put their lives on the line to protect ours. No need for hate on either side of the color scheme.

You know, lack of respect for things that are worthy of it like this and the American flag is really starting to annoy me. Just because we support the police doesn't mean we support the murder of George Floyd and screw us conservatives for being patriotic and loving our country and nation's flag! Honestly!
The police had many options when criminals started attacking them and calling for "Defund the Police". Had all the police forces united and gone on strike for even one day, the politicians and evildoers would have woken up to what is going on exactly.
Furthermore, Donald Trump had a golden opportunity to put all police forces under the US Marshals service and remove their compensation and control from local politicians at the same time. The whole picture would have changed because they could cross state lines if necessary.
Again, he failed to act. Now two criminals are running the country from the White House, and all the evildoers have taken control of the government (Senate & Congress).

I agree, it's like cancel culture, so if someone they don't like associates something with something then cancel it. Like the blue lives matter flag. Sure there's some racists that present that flag, but it does mean something good. And we all matter when it comes to innocence and the judicial system.
What it really comes down to is statistics and racism. Look at the incarceration statistics by race and then look at the population statistics by race (which I'll present in a moment). In the news it's all too often that they show crimes before conviction is judged so we see a lot of racism stemming from media carefully selected stories. I mean 38.5% of the prison is blacks and 57.6% is whites, but who do you see in the news committing crimes all the time? Let me answer: blacks. And it's a form of media steering of the populations ideas and beliefs. I'm of the opinion that they should not report on crimes unless the criminal is convicted in a court of law to be fair to the innocent, or unless they're on the run. But here's the statistics:
BOP Statistics: Inmate Race - Federal Bureau of Prisons

Race # of Inmates % of Inmates

In Australia the media and other rat bags will state that the Aboriginals are over represented in crime and in Jail, so they demand that such is racist ? and you average dimwit swallows it all.
So if there was 10% of some race that is in a Nation and they represent more than 10% of who is in Jail, that's regarded as due to racial prejudice
that's clear cut ! as to the morons in the media and such moronic fools are demanding, not to mention the same Socialist dribble is played out in political representing, Oh no ! there is more men in politics than women, Can't have that now can we, as that's in equality ! under the Socialism gods dribble, such has noting to do with quality of representation at all. it's all hair brain irrational statistics and so shallow !I believe that women representation in political field is a good thing but that it must be 50 50 representation is just childish, if there were 80%
women representing I would not give a rats, as long as they are good at the job, that's all that I care about. I despise the concept that they claim that we must have 50 50 so as to appease the Socialist gods.
So what do they do the Socialist do, well they run about and try to rope women into the game, not to mention that once anyone gets into a position you will find out that you become a pawn in the system and that they own you and control you, or else they will work to destroy you. it's a cut throat game in their.
The Abo's that I grew up with were all thieves, if they had a dad, that was maybe around 10% in my area, so they ran loose doing jobs at night, they would tell me all about what they had done the night before at school lunch time. they boast to anyone with no regard at all, not the cops mind you they knew what to do if the cops did come looking for them, they went to the powers that be that were just like an organised mafia that was government sponsored payed. so they were untouchable as a brat kid with a really wealthy dad that would do everything in his power to get the brat off the hook. not to mention that the cops were that scared of the abo's that they just would turn a blind eye to it all and only act if they had to. same with Gang bikes in other regards, because they knew they would end up getting punched from bikies, so they only dealt with them when they had to. but the cops would runabout like Nazis trying to nab anyone who was easy pickings at the drop of a hat. that was what it was like in the 1970's to 80's in my town.
So you see the Media and the Left Governments worked to only in courage the key to the problem, playing on emotional baggage and then there also was a part of the wealthy right that seen opportunity as in using such as a cash cow, lawyers, Judges etc. opportunity ! my abo mates seen opportunity that was too good to miss out on, so they did such and all the white trash seen there opportunity and all the wile the majority were being taken for a ride by such opportunist who see the majority as easy led fools, as They will believe anything that the powers that be make out.
We have corruption that was going on for years, like the huge child molesting from priest all covered up by the establishment and the majority were totally oblivious to it all. many people tried for years to bring this forward only to be kicked in the teeth for trying to bring such up. same with the Aboriginals history of story's nowadays is all one sided childish half truths, full of half backed shallow dribble that only works on emotions as a key driving point and a shallowness of cunning Left Government parading around as if it was saviour to the abos, well far from it in my books, even now it's a cunning satanic game that's at play with them.
This world is dying as the Bible foretold. America is on death's door.
