Officer Down, France

I've just received word from a friend of mine in France, that a member of the French Gign, Fred Mortier, 35-years-old, was shot to death yesterday. We all have different feelings about national policies and such, but after getting to know my friend for the past few years, I can attest to the fact that cops are cops, whether here, in England, in France, Canada or wherever. The loss of this officer in the line of duty is a tragedy, regardless of nationality. Please keep his family, and the families of all fallen officers world wide in your thoughts and prayers.

How true. No matter the place, no matter the time, if we do not stand together everywhere, we stand alone.
