I love the headline but the article is only ok. I think it was dismissive of the cop killer as just a crazy man. I don't see his decision to do suicide by cop as random craziness but rational craziness.
I wonder what he means that the police unions are financially motivated. To a small extent I get it because the people who have to run the union day by day need to collect membership fees and thus need to protect their members as best as possible but I feel the much stronger motivation is that they do feel they know better how to do there job and they are insulted at having their judgement questioned.
The strong point is how he asks cynical and myopic people to ask themselves if they actually see the everyday protesters going on a murderous rampage. He basically asks them if they do really believe death of cops is the solution the protesters are looking for.
