More “pig”-bashing:

This alleged suspect shooting cop and now running scenario just all seems so contrived – and conveniently timed. #IMO #Ferguson

FYI: The officer is reportedly a woman. Not that it’ll stop the hate.

Finally, some prayers for the wounded officer.
Prayers to the officer who was shot and her family. Too much violence in our city. A more just society is a more peaceful one. #HealSTL

@AntonioFrench @NidaKhanNY Why are you offering prayers for the non-fatally injured police in this situation? Are you freakin' serious?
— Michael Tracey (@mtracey) September 28, 2014
Update: Missouri Highway Patrol Captain Ron Johnson now says the injured office is male.

Conflicting reports re gender of Ferguson officer shot. St. Louis County PD says female, Devin James Group says male http://t.co/mutdOCQSir

Female/Male cop shot and alive/killed. Suspect killed/on the loose. #Ferguson #Twitter
