It is probably not the situation in most cases, but I think a argument can be made that the so called "Black Lives Matter" crusade may be used as an excuse by a mentally unstable person as a reason for violence against law officers. Black lives do matter but no more so than any person's life. There are certainly horrible and perhaps unjustified killings of unarmed black men which still demand answers and justifys some anger against "the man", but Black Lives is an insult to that justifiable anger in my opinion!
Not sure what the answer is, but there is a disturbing trend of cops being killed and cops being killers. Patrolling in pairs might help with both problems, but the Houston murder was of an officer not even on duty.
