More on ‘Cop Killer’
Consider that a young man may listen to “Cop Killer” and think that “if Ice-T advocates murdering police officers, that’s good enough for me,” then get a gun and go on a car “cop safari” to take out the first officer he sees.
Could this happen in your city? I doubt it. In fact, I’ll go as far as to guarantee America that not one law-enforcement officer who will be killed in the line of duty from this day forward will die at the hands of someone who has (been motivated by) the record.
You don’t think so? Cut out this letter and read it again in a couple of years. You will not have heard of a single case.
