I will begin by recognizing the heroic men and women who serve in the L.A. County Sheriff's Department as well. This week, our country witnessed a cowardly evil attack on two L.A. County deputies. As the two county deputies were sitting inside of their parked car in Compton, California, a thug approached their vehicle and shot them point-blank. We are grateful that both of them are expected to survive. We regret that ambush, totally without justification, and we need to bring them to justice. I am reminded of what the British moralist C. S. Lewis described in his book, ``The Abolition of Man,'' where he said of shallow and heartless people as being ``men without chests.'' Perhaps, now, we are seeing that from the vicious criminals who are attempting to single out and overthrow our cities and, specifically, attack our police force. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Davidson).
