The recent execution of NYPD Officers Officer Rafael Ramos and Wenjian Liu has sparked an even greater nationwide outrage following the public's cry for justice after so many unarmed Black men have been slain by police in recent years.

Officers Ramos and Liu were gunned down by 28-year-old Ismaaiyl Brinsley, while sitting in their car in Brooklyn.  Brisnley fired off four shots into their vehicle without warning, striking them each in the head and killing them.  It is the cold-blooded nature of this attack that has everyone so up in arms over the deaths of these two fallen cops, because Mr. Brinsley previously posted on his Instagram account that he planned on hunting down police officers.  

These new killings have only further added to the tension that already exists in this nation between police and the civilians, and sparked the hashtag #NYPDLivesMatter. Many people have been debating the significance of police officers' lives, and expressing their general thoughts on the matter.

Check out the trend above.
