The coffin of police Constable Nicola Hughes is carried into Manchester Cathedral after processing along the city's Deansgate lined with police officers and members of the public on Oct. 3 in Manchester, England. Police Constables Nicola Hughes, 23, and her police colleague Fiona Bone, 32, were killed as they responded to what they thought was a routine burglary call in Mottram, Greater Manchester and were murdered in a gun and grenade attack. The funeral of Fiona Bone also takes place at the cathedral tomorrow. A local man, Dale Cregan, 29, appeared before Manchester Magistrates last week accused of four murders, including those of PC Nicola Hughes and PC Fiona Bone on Sept. 18.

They may have big processions, but this is what happens when you brutalize citizens, it's linked, either directly or indirectly, so quit crying!
Wow, beyond insensitive.
Brutalize citizens? Give us proof that this guy was brutalized to warrant such an attack.
RIP officer.
fly-moe you and your braindead pal makesnosense, are brainless twits. If you two idiots don't see the daily stories of pigs brutalizing citizens, then go to hell. Everytime they kill a person, they should be killed. One for one. And kill all the bastards that stick up for the murdering thugs hiding behind badges. Nice to see justice served. May the pigs remember they reap what they sow. And may you two clowns remember the same.
Adin and Alex, you two are in serious need of counselling and medication. Please find a free clinic and make appointments to deal with your anger issues as soon as possible! MakeSense, you are correct. These people are way beyond insensitive!
My sincere condolences to the families, loved ones, and fellow officers of the victims. May they rest in peace.
Police officers with no weapons of their own-Brilliant!
Either get used to those sensless cop killings OR get them some F****** GUNS!!!!!
