You are quite the hero, Officer Tippit. I respect and honor you greatly. Oswald was a traitor to our Nation and a coward, I'm sorry that he got the drop on you. But, he was not alone in this job, his gun was not the only gun fired at our President. Research and facts prove this and I believe his Vice-President is paying for that in Hell, as we speak, as is Oswald.
I pray that the Lord has comforted your family all these years and kept them healthy and safe. I know they've missed you greatly. You are a hero, Officer Tippit. America's Hero and may God bless you and watch over you in his Kingdom, forever.

I would suspect Officer Tippit stood vigil at the gates of Heaven as an ambassador of the Thin Blue Line to welcome his brothers of the Dallas Police Department and Transit Police, citing "Blesssed are the Peacemakers". Eternal rest be granted unto all these fine brave men who distinguished themselves with professionalism, integrity, honor and courage. Law abiding citizens mourn your loss and will never forget the ultimate sacrifice each of you made to protect and serve the Dallas community, The Great State of Texas and our Nation. May God craddle all your families, friends, brother and sisters in the law enforcement community in whose hearts you will NEVER be forgotten. God Bless the fallen...

Respectfully,

Officer Tippit is truly one of our nation's great heroes. He risked his life in service to our country, to fight oppression. Then he dedicated his life to protecting his fellow citizens. It is to our great sorrow that he had to give his life to help bring President Kennedy's assassin to justice. Your city and this nation were greatly enriched by his life. I know his wife and children, as well as all of his siblings and other family members must be so proud. Thank you Officer Tippit...

Sometimes, we don't know who a hero might be until he distinguishes himself by valor in a moment of crisis. Officer J.D. Tippit was the kind of hero that helped right the wrongs of this world and made Dallas a safer place to live. His intelligence and instinct during the last moments of his life helped to find a presidential assassin before he could get away. Officer Tippit took very little from life and in return gave all that he had. Dallas is grateful.

J.D. Tippit was a true hero, he gave his life doing his job protecting the people of Dallas. I have always felt that the Dallas Police Dept. should have been honored for the unbelievable work they did in solving the senseless murders of two great men, they had the killer in custody in less than two hours, and never got an ounce of thanks for it. Both officer Tippit and the Dallas Police Dept. have my utmost respect.

I was only 12 years old on that horrible day, and did not learn until later that our nation had lost not one, but two great men.

RIP, Officer Tippit. The lessons of selflessness and dedication you embodied will not be forgotten.

Tippit, you were a special hero. One that gave a sacrifice no one else could give, and that civilian that called for help was also a hero. You were alone only with a few people doing your job trying to question Oswald.

Like all the cops in all the world there was a huge lump in my throat on that fateful day, yes I was saddend by the loss of Mr. Kennedy, but some how I felt the death of officer Tippet ever so much more, I still do.

Two fine men died that day both lived by the motto of the Blue Knight ( I know one wasn't a cop but he would have made a good one)
