I am sad to hear that the officer died from this shot. I know that it is escalated because of what happened at the Marathon. I do hope that it continues to be unrelated though. This does not need any momentum to keep it going. It is enough that the FBI presence makes it all that more intense. Most likely we would not have heard about any of this if not for that marathon Bombing. It raised my curiosity and I did a quick search only to find that just the other day a was man shot and killed by two officers when he recklessly drove up onto a parking structure and pulled a shotgun on them. They said that he was a Iraq war Veteran and suffered from depression and had been diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder. But I would not have known accept this brought my curiosity to a peak. I think that if we look around we can find it most everywhere. It is not that it is that much worse but it definitely is in the light right now.
