An NYPD officer who was shot in the head while sitting in an unmarked car has died, according to the New York Post.

The family of Officer Brian Moore decided to pull him off life support, the newspaper reported.

Moore was had been in a coma and "fighting for his life," District Attorney Richard Brown told The Associated Press on Sunday. Two days earlier, he was shot in the head in Queens while sitting in an unmarked car.

Moore underwent surgery for what court papers described as "severe injuries to his skull and brain."

The suspect accused in the shooting, Demetrius Blackwell, was ordered held without bail Sunday after appearing in Queens Criminal Court. He did not enter a plea to charges of attempted murder.

Prosecutors planned to present the case to a grand jury before Blackwell's next court appearance on Friday.

Blackwell's court-appointed lawyer, David Bart, said his client denied the charges, which also include assault and weapons offenses.

Police on Monday continued to search for the weapon.

"This was nothing more and nothing less than a cold-blooded attempt at an assassination of New York's finest," Assistant District Attorney Peter McCormack said.

McCormack said Moore and patrol partner Erik Jansen — both in plainclothes in an unmarked police car — approached Blackwell on a Queens street after seeing him tugging at his waistband around 6:15 p.m. Saturday and asked him "What are you carrying?"

The officers ordered Blackwell to stop and exchanged words with him. That's when Blackwell turned, the prosecutor said, and "in a vicious manner started to fire" — at least two shots.

Jansen was not hit and radioed for help.

This is sad for sure, but it goes with the territory. Those guys take this risk every time they go on the street.

This is sad for sure, but it goes with the territory. Those guys take this risk every time they go on the street.

The complete opposite seems to happen in this country with far more regularity.

Cops busting down wrong doors in "wrong door knocks," usually due to idiocy and negligence, cops beating, tazing, and sometimes shooting and killing people for which a mere verbal warning would have been more then enough, often over nothing even worthy of attention, cops using excessive force often terminally in other situations.

Correct, this comes with the territory, having your dog and/or family shot to death because a bunch of psychotic pinheads are too stupid to correctly identify an address properly, or due to a system that's overreacting to a victimless "crime," hardly comes with the territory. That's tyranny!

So do I have any pity? In contrast the cops do much more damage in this way than they sustain rendering the nation's largest criminal gang, so no, not really. Should we? Think about it, .... should we have pity? Don't know about this specific case, but waxing general, if the cops simply minded the business that the Constitution actually licenses them to do instead of executing every whim, desire, decree, and dicate of a corrupt tyranny, then perhaps these instances would not even happen.

So, tragedy is as tragedy does.

Whatever.

It's a little more than "whatever."

Without a willing populace accomplice, tryanny as we're now seeing it not possible.

It takes a whole lot of people that willingly work for the government in the most immoral agencies and departments, it takes a whole lot of people willingly working for the MIC that forge the weapons that will one day ultimately suppress them, it takes a whole lot of people to willingly work in the military and LE that oppress others in the name of "law," it takes a whole lot of people willingly willingly teaching propaganda to the public and to our children in the public and even some private schools, it takes a whole lot of people to willingly work for the "news" networks and mainstream newspapers to assist in propagandizing everyone, etc.

These people are among the best paid in the country right now admidst a struggling economy otherwise.

Americans worship at the Altar of Mammon and have sold their souls and morality for wealth. Soon many will have neither wealth nor liberty.

I don't think that's a simple "whatever."

Yes, whatever is a perfect response to your tired bloviation.

What's your point? Do you think you've got Truth by the tail?

I've got some real news for you - listen up! - every single person on this planet wants and needs money to survive. Americans simply have more of it. That's why every Third World immigrant tries to come here. Good morals and ethics are not worth a hill of beans if you are poor and live in South Africa or Brazil or Iraq or the like. And another thing please be advised that American taxpayer wealth/ Mammon is spread to every nation and continent because otherwise Africa, South America, Central America, much of Asia would fall into themselves and people there would die of starvation or mutual destruction.

America's wealth, the First World's wealth keeps 2/3 of this planet's inhabitants alive. You want to exercise your anti-$ inclinations? There are flights going out to poor Third World nations every day. Please donate your hateful Mammon $ to widows and children of police killed in action before you leave. You won't need $ where you are going, right?

Man you're deluded!

If you're too stupid to see that sacrificing morality for purposes of material gain (aka the focus on the endless quest for mammon), is nothing but a downward spiraling proposition, then sorry, I simply don't know what to say to you.

That statement was like something spewed directly off of one of the major "news" networks.

When people here cannot even see that then it's a real reality check.

And if you think that the only way for society to exist is to exactly participate in the furtherance of a tyrannical government, then just STFU, quit complaining about anything altogether, and just tell yourself that whatever shithole our society devolves to, A, you've earned, and B, has no solution and therefore isn't worth discussing, and then don't waste your time here.

Sad that you don't know, and who knows, perhaps you're an atheist as you sure sound like one by your reasoning, but the majority of people in this nation, its fabric, turned their backs on the Living God long ago! That's the core problem which has resulted in all of the good immoralistic attributes of our modern day marvelous nation.

So run off now and go cite the Pledge of Allegiance and sing the Star Spangled Banner but just don't say a f'ing word when you are finally the direct target of those doing the same.

Either you're stupid or just tremendously short-sighted and grandly ignorant. .

I worry that you may stroke out, so I'll go back to my short and sweet and calming response to your pompous first post: whatever.
