I honestly believe the random mass shootings and this shooting by the fallen police officer is a set up by the government to gain full control of the right to keep and bear arms. The government wants total control of the American people

To the last "genius" Yeah that's arrogance, though we're even sure if the VP even knew the eulogy was taking place at the direct time, otherwise one could be sure that he might would've waited. So oh yeah how dare he show concern anyhow, taking a misstep over a what should be concern about violence and an fallen officer and using it as politically motivated bash (and you did) is a d*** move though.

Is that not a D&@#! move by the VP, to "summon" the Memphis mayor to his conference call DURING the eulogy???? Arrogance!

Wharton spoke the words. You put them in writing. While the officer did lose the blood in her 'vein', her death should not be in 'vain'. Spell-check would not have caught "will not be in vein" because it is a valid word but like 'to, two, too' and 'there, they're, their', the word 'vein' was not used correctly. It should have been 'vain' (not vane either!).
