Two Mississippi police officers were shot dead after they were ambushed and left wounded following a routine traffic stop on Saturday night in the town of Hattiesburg. Officers Benjamin Deen, 34, and Liquori Tate, 25, were shot and their police cruiser was taken before they were discovered by a passerby. Tamika Mills heard one of the officers say, 'Am I dying? I know I'm dying. Just hand me my walkie-talkie.' Both officers were transported from the scene of the shooting to Forrest General Hospital and the county coroner confirmed their deaths. The suspects were identified as Curtis Banks and Marvin Banks and warrants were issued for their arrests. It is believed Marvin was taken into custody at the North Gate Inn during the extensive manhunt.

The sheep giving government more reason to militarize LE even more.
When police are not held accountable for murders and other forms of injustice, all police everywhere, including good cops, are placed in more danger from an increasingly corruption-weary public.
So these two cops were murdered because of some perceived injustice against some people somewere in the legal system. You might be able to make that case if they were murdered by a member of some group -- eg., the Black Panthers, the KKK, etc. As it is, they were murdered by two run-of-the-mill, sub-human criminals who have no respect for the law or for human life. Their "social cause" was themselves.
