Tribute to Officer Brenton

For those not following Seattle's news. Officer Brenton was a police officer that was killed October 31st. He was shot while sitting in his patrol car. They have a man currently in custody as the shooter. The reason why this work below exists is because a local band leader decided to make a T shirt with a picture of the accused shooter and Officer Brenton's badge in a pool of blood. With the title "Deliver us from evil". To retaliate Komo News decided to hold a "contest" of sorts to see what the public could come up with as a T shirt design to combat the viral one already out on the market. This is what I came up with:I have heard some people complain of the police, going as far as to say that they hate them. They use the WTO protest as logical reasoning behind such hatred. It saddens me to see so many grasp onto hatred so fast, ignoring the many men and women that sacrifice their lives just to ensure we are safe. For now this is a small tribute to Officer Brenton.

  1. I love this tribute, It is too bad that so many officers were killed in 2009, but this work is excellent. Especially the skyline with the spaceneedle.
