Guys, I normally don't reach out like this, let people know what I do for a living or leave much of an online presence that can be traced to me or my family, but I really need all the support I/we can get.

After determining that broadcasting didn't offer much security or a future, I left the industry and eventually settled into a career in law enforcement, landing with Dallas.

I was working the BLM protest yesterday and was at the scene when we were ambushed by a guy whose sole purpose was to take me and my brothers and sisters out solely because we are white and wear a badge.

I literally saw this man gunning us down and my coworkers on the ground, likely dead. We ended up eliminating the threat he posed and w limiting innocent victims, but in the aftermath, we are all feeling a bit more exposed and vulnerable.

Any thoughts, prayers or well-wishes would greatly be appreciated. If you truly support us, thank any officer you see no matter where you are. We are all feeling increasingly isolated and "small" things like that have a huge impact. If you dont support us, I'm okay with that, but would like not to see it here.

Thank you all for your time.
