If those that was wrong was convicted.
Then many wouldn't protest the verdict.
Or have to say police lives matter.

All lives matters, in terms of human respect.

Too many times crooked cop exist because the good cops refuses to report them.
So they go on scheming money from the drug dealers.
Many with their own stories to tell themselves.
Yes, a shake down many citizens knows so well.

Yes, police lives matters.
Simply cause of the danger of the job.
But you have a few shaky ones quick to pull the trigger.

Who don't know the excuse used constantly?
Which is "I felt threaten for my life".
Even if shot forty feet away.
And the object in hand requires them to be inches closer to harm them.

Most juries are sympathy cases to law enforcers.
Especially when the evidence convicts them.
And you hear a not guilty verdict.

For every innocent victim abused , killed by mistakes.
Their life was just as important too.
And we hardly hear them crying "their lives matter".

Yes, police lives matters.
Not because of the job.
But because some went the distance to severe and protect.
And was wise on when to use their assigned weapon.
