Wow. I live in San Marcos and was just coming back from Austin when I saw 30+ cops headed toward Austin.

I saw this tragic news as I opened my latest notification from the 100 Club for Trooper Damon Allen. I'll be looking for this one now. Prayers for his family.

Suspect should get the death penalty. Hopefully he does not plead out to avoid the needle!
RIP Officer Copeland!

The "needle" is too good a way to go. Hanging or the firing squad might fit the crime.

Firing squad is a much better, cheaper and humane way to execute criminals in my opinion. Plus, noone knows who did the deed. Win-win
