It shows just the chest of a police officer and the top of a cop car in the background. The contact page had no pictures just an advertisement. There is a Colum in the right ide that features videos. All of the topics on the right side take you to more news stories on police officers. Reading the about part on the blue lives matter page, it states that law enforcement personnel are easy targets , they are bullies by slander, illegitimate complaints, frivolous law suits and physical threats. I find the word bullies to be a good but interesting word choice. The blue lives matter was founded in 2014 when officer Darren Wilson shot and killed Michael brown.
