The spokesman for a St. Louis police union said Thursday morning on “Fox & Friends” that the overnight shooting of two police officers at a protest in Ferguson, Missouri was exactly what protesters wanted.
The protesters “didn’t get what they wanted earlier” with the resignation of Ferguson’s police chief Wednesday, Jeff Roorda, a spokesman for the St. Louis Police Officers Association, said. “They got it late last night when they finally, successfully shot two police officers.”
“Dead cops, that’s what they want,” Roorda said. “Let’s not pretend like they wanted Tom Jackson’s resignation or that they’re still mad because Mayor Knowles is there. They want dead cops.”
“That was their goal all along, and that was their goal last night,” he added.
