From an Anonymous commenter:
On Fox and Friends this morning, a NJ Police Officer, Michael Keene, was interviewed. He was a passenger on that train and he is credited with helping several survivors off of the derailed train despite his own injuries. Not discussed further, this officer mentioned he was returning home from DC where he attended an affair dedicated to this nation's fallen police officers.\
Begs the question...given the current politically charged 'anti-police' climate...was this event and it's departing passengers mere coincidence?MORE ---

Are you suggesting this could be an attack on the police? Do we know how many members of police departments were on that train?
This is pure speculation. We note the fact, and speculate. Yes, MAYBE it was an attack on the police.
Probably not.
But maybe.
My guess is it is a simple case of a drunken engineer.
