The first of the Dallas officers murdered by #BlackLivesMatter terror had trained police in countries overrun by terrorists to avoid ambushes. In a tragic irony, he was killed in an ambush by terrorists backed by our own government right here in this country.
After serving in the Marines, Thompson later worked for a private Pentagon contractor that hired and trained Iraqi and Afghan police in the concepts of "democratic policing." The instruction included training in how to avoid an ambush, according to his LinkedIn page.
"I was responsible for the day to day operations conducted by our American police officers who trained and mentored the Iraqi Police," he wrote.
He also served as an instructor at the Dallas police academy.
"While teaching at the Police Academy, I instructed courses to new recruits on different subject matter, as well as instruction to veteran police officers on state mandated courses," Thompson wrote.
It's a testament to Obama's horrifying actions that police officers in America now face the same danger as those in Iraq or Afghanistan.
