Mean Republicans Won't Pay the Cops Who Protect Us

Nearly every single story I read about the Stamford, Connecticut, dental hygienist who was killed trying to ram her car into the capitol in Washington mentioned that the cops who shot her were working without pay since Tuesday. As the incident happened Thursday, that meant the cops were working two days without pay.

I don't know how they pay cops in Washington DC but around here people get paid either once a week, once every two weeks or once a month. To go two days without a paycheck is not only not unfair, it is the standard practice of every business and government agency in the country.
