but I'm trying to understand why this happened, going by his posts and actions choosing to kill these two officers. Sounds like this attitude may of been set in his mind for a longtime, but of course I could be totally wrong. We are all affected by those we choose to associate with. IMO the actions of the police and his ties to the gang were more of a factor than the Mayor's words.
