The Harris County sheriff called the motive "madness" in the "calculated, cold-blooded assassination" of a deputy who was ambushed putting gas in his cruiser Friday night at a northwest Harris County service station.

"In my 45 years in law enforcement, I can't recall another incident so cold-blooded and cowardly," Sheriff Ron Hickman said.

Darren Goforth, 47, a 10-year veteran of the department, was gunned down at a Chevron station at Telge and West, after working a routine car accident about 30 minutes earlier.

Darren Goforth was ambushed. he had now chance fighting back.

Every week, a police officer gets shot and killed. This anti-police rhetoric needs to end.

Houston gunman 'shot deputy 15 times' in gas station assassination that 'cop lives matter too' sheriff has linked to national anti-police rhetoric
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3217263/Houston-cop-killer-appears-court-s-revealed-shot-sheriff-s-deputy-15-times-gas-station-bloodbath.html

A suburban Houston police officer who was ambushed at a gas station was shot 15 times, Harris County district attorney Devon Anderson said in court Monday.

Shannon J Miles appeared briefly in state district court in handcuffs and shackles and said very little, other than to answer the judge's questions. He is being held without bond and was appointed two attorneys.

Anderson read the probable cause statement during the hearing, saying that police received a call of an officer down at 8.20pm Friday. When police arrived at the gas station in the Houston suburb of Cypress, they found deputy Darren Goforth face-down.

This is an ambush.

It needs to begin with a strong message from the leader of this Nation reminding the Citizens that the Police are on our side.  Too bad this Nation doesn't have a leader to deliver that message.

Sadly, He'll probably  be treated like royalty by his fellow inmates.  Cop killers are venerated by other prisoners in jail, I hear. Not so much by the guards, of course. But general  population will make him a celebrity.

I'm pretty sure he's going straight to Death Row and will miss his tickertape parade through the cellblock.

I agree, but sadly the death penalty has lost its meaning as well, when inmates can sit on death row for DECADES, costing the taxpayer MILLIONS  of dollars, while appeal after appeal is filed for them by unscrupulous lawyers. I guess I'm just jaded about the chances of this idiot actually being executed.  Thank liberals and their aversion to 'cruel and unusual  punishment'.

What SHOULD happen to him is a public hanging.  Executions aren't just there to punish the criminal,  there is a social component to it as well. It shows the law-abiding citizens that justice  has been served, and reminds the idiots who would think about doing this kind of stuff, what the ultimate cost of their foolishness will be.

I personally think OBlamer is enjoying this. He sees this as winning in his destruction of America and for a bonus the killing of the white man!

For the longest time the race of the "alleged" perp was not being mentioned.
The more time that passed the more obvious it was what the race of the perp was.
The reporters and networks were tripping over themselves trying to avoid letting go of the dirty little secret.

This happened in Texas and they are pretty efficient in carrying out death sentences there.

True enough, I guess I've just grown cynical lately about the whole criminal justice system.  Chances are, if he'd have done this in Detroit or Baltimore,  he'd be celebrated by the local community.

Is it time to make shooting or killing a cop a hate crime?

It's long overdue.  It's not "freedom of speech".

Strange thing is you can't yell fire in a movie theater without consequences but you can yell kill the pig and when it's done nothing happens.

That's because one of the Libs protected classes is the one yelling Kill the Pig!

If a white conservative yelled that...PETA would be calling for their death.

Texas Woman Who Tweeted Deputy Deserved Execution Arrested on Assault Charge
http://www.breitbart.com/texas/2015/09/02/texas-woman-who-tweeted-deputy-deserved-execution-arrested-on-assault-charge/

The Texas woman who garnered an unexpected national spotlight after tweeting that a Harris County deputy deserved to be executed was arrested in her home county on an assault warrant out of Houston. The arrest stems from a 2011 incident where she allegedly punched a former co-worker in the face causing bodily injury.

Montgomery County jail officials confirmed to Breitbart Texas that Monica Foy was arrested on Tuesday evening for an arrest warrant out of Harris County. The warrant was for a 2011 charge of assault with bodily injury, a misdemeanor charge. She was held for several hours and then released on a $1,000 bond in the early morning hours.

On Tuesday, Breitbart Texas revealed Foy had sent out a message on Twitter where she wrote, “I can’t believe so many people care about a dead cop and NO ONE has thought to ask what he did to deserve it. He had creepy perv eyes…” The comment appeared to be directed at the execution-style murder of Harris County Deputy Darren Goforth. The deputy was brutally murdered Friday night while pumping gas in his patrol car in northwest Houston.

Why it took the police this long to arrest her? Anyways, what is Monica Foy's DU name?
