There's such animosity toward the police in some urban communities that even people who aren't afraid, and who hate crime, still feel cooperating is something good people don't do.

We don't ever want to create an environment where people are afraid of their own local police officers.

I hate to brag about my dog, but he was an exceptionally good police dog. When he was working, he was so intense. When it was all over with, he was as friendly as your normal house pet.

The three victims sought out were people of color. I don't buy coincidence in this crime of hate.

Nobody out there can say that if the state passed a hate-crime law any crime would decrease. People who commit heinous crimes should be punished.

If we discovered a crime involving a police officer, we wouldn't investigate it ourselves, we'd hand it off.
