The cold-blooded execution of Detective Benjamin Marconi in San Antonio is stirring up fear, anger and uncertainty in police officers and deputies everywhere.
"Makes me sick," said Tom Moore, President of the Harris County Fraternal Order of Police. "They say that could have been me, what can I do to protect myself and our sister officers."
Texas Governor Greg Abbott renewed his commitment to pass the Police Protection Act this coming legislative session.
He first proposed the law after the ambush-style attack on Dallas Police officers this summer. The law would make it a hate crime to target police officers simply because they wear a badge.
"It tells people we're not going to tolerate individuals killing somebody simply because they're wearing a uniform, no more so than we would tolerate people killing because of their sexual orientation, religious beliefs or color of their skin," said Ray Hunt, president of the Houston Police Officers Union.
( so, will all crime eventually become a hate crime?)
