The National Review This Saturday, Rafael Ramos and Wenjian Liu were assassinated on on the streets of New York for wearing the uniform that keeps those streets safe.

Just last weekend, some protesters in New York were infamously chanting, “What do we want? Dead cops. When do we want them? Now.” President Obama, Attorney General Eric Holder, and New York mayor Bill de Blasio have all played their own irresponsible parts; they have all lent moral support to occasionally violent protests.
