Thousands of law enforcement members lined the streets of two Southern U.S. cities on Monday to honor the lives of two veteran police officers who were shot to death in the line of duty over the span of six days.
Both men were in their uniforms and on the job when they were gunned down. McKeithen was killed on May 5 when he was ambushed and shot to death in front of the Biloxi police headquarters, allegedly by 19-year-old Darian Tawan Atkinson. On Saturday night, Ansari lost his life when he and another officer were fired on as they approached a car that had been involved in an earlier robbery.
While he said he wanted to focus on how McKeithen lived his life, Miller briefly noted how the officer died. Earlier on Monday in Savannah, Georgia, a police motorcade led a black hearse carrying the body of Sgt. Ansari, 50, from Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead early Sunday morning, to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation crime lab, where his autopsy is scheduled to be conducted.
“We lost a husband, we lost a father, we lost a leader," Savannah Police Chief Roy Minter said at a news conference Sunday night."Sergeant Ansari is survived by his wife and four children between the ages of five and 25.” The Georgia Bureau of Investigation said Sunday that the suspect in the fatal shooting of Ansari had also died from injuries suffered in Saturday night's gun battle. He was identified as 49-year-old Edward Fuller III.

'Law & Order: SVU' outlasts the original NBC drama: A look at the franchise'Law & Order: SVU' just became the longest-running show in Dick Wolf's franchise. Here's a breakdown of the rest of the 'Law & Order' universe. And ironically also outlasts true Law & Order in this country's government. What a gorgeous lady Actress AngieHarmon was in the Original Law & Order back in 1995. usatoday Was probably my most favorite TV show to watch. I've seen every episode, but I began to sour on it when I saw the plots didn't really reflect criminal reality, but were more pushing a social and political agenda.

Georgia Governor Signs ‘Fetal Heartbeat’ Abortion LawGeorgia Republican Gov. Brian Kemp signed one of the country’s most restrictive abortion laws, making it a crime for a doctor to perform an abortion if a woman has been pregnant for six weeks or longer. He's obviously never met a toddler or a teenager. Abortion should be legal until the 18th birthday Bravo! 👏👏👏 Leave it to Georgia morons to gleefully destroy a women's right to control her body for the inane reasoning they use to entertain themselves with an utterly vicious form of bigotry. The intelligent people of Georgia should be ashamed of their legislators.

Georgia's governor is expected to sign a controversial abortion bill into lawGeorgia Gov. Brian Kemp is expected to sign a bill today that would ban abortions if a fetal heartbeat can be detected. Currently, women in the state are allowed to undergo abortion procedures up to their 20th week of pregnancy. GovKemp GOP GOPLeader Stop trying to interfere in women’s lives. A woman’s decision has nothing to do with the government. I don’t see any laws against anything men do. Stop trying to control the women. There are hell of a lot better laws needed in this country than this. Bravo! All life is precious and capable of great deeds! I still feel there are exceptions to every rule. Stop trying to make Abortion a crime. It a very private and personal decision and in most cases not approached lightly. Til you walk in someone’s shoes...

Ocasio-Cortez labels new Georgia abortion law as a 'backdoor ban'Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez sharply criticized a new Georgia abortion law, calling it a 'backdoor ban' If a 3 year old is on life support and the doctor says with 99% certainty the child will be as healthy as any other in 6 months, no logic would allow the mother to take that child off life support. Now subtract 3.5 years from the child’s age and ask again.🤔 No Logic! 😔 Who cares what that moronic puppet actress says? NOTHING I HATE MORE THAN A BAN ON THE BACKDOOR !!!!!!!!
