FALLS TOWNSHIP, Pa. — Police aren’t backing down from an anti-cop sign posted in their community.

ABC 6 reported when officers saw the plywood sprayed with “Only good cop is a dead cop” outside of a business in their town Monday, they took to Facebook to confront the persons behind it.

“I know whoever did this, did it out of ignorance,” Lt. Henry Ward wrote on Facebook. “I would like to sit down with them and show them what we do as police officers so they can base their opinion on facts and not ignorance.”

The department asked those responsible to come into the department so maybe both parties could learn something from each other, but expressed their disdain for their actions.

“They hung the sign in the middle of the night like a true coward that I think they are,” Ward said. “I find it ironic that whoever did this did it on the anniversary of D-Day when thousands of young Americans died to make sure an idiot or idiots like this can express their opinions.”

The post garnered some sympathetic comments from users agreeing with police.

The incident was under investigation.
