Throughout our history as a nation, lawmen have been killed in the line of duty. The first recorded police officer death in the United States occurred in 1791. Since that first police officer murder, there have been thousands more, and each of them has prompted some attention to the subject of preventing such acts from occurring. Fast forward to 2016, and it's clear that the problem of police mortality is far from being solved. Today, there is an increased targeting of law enforcement officers, in all corners of this nation, by radical groups which, backed by liberal politicians who lack a conscience, make killing officers a "badge of courage". Police work today is more dangerous than ever before. Thus, the emphasis on officer survival has never been more important.
