More than 5 years later and I still get a lump in my throat and a broken heart. Zack was a great officer and a better human. Miss you, brother. Honored to be a part of the DCSO family you represented the best of.

[@lrsmith6037]

A stunning tribute. I hope his daughters will one day watch this and see how the community honored their father.

[@aesopus9344]

@dbltrplx They do this for all fallen officers for their service to the state, it's a way to say thank you

[@Ziqrul]

@dbltrplx are you anti government or something?

[@christianwentworth4667]

@dbltrplx Wow your stupidity knows no bounds huh. He gave his life for the community he loved you ungrateful shit. Show some respect.

[@Adam1212C1]

@dbltrplx You sound like a little beta male bitch.

[@EvilEmoj1]

@@maniacpsycho5460 Your complete lack of empathy for someone that was regarded as a good deputy is baffling. Furthermore, your apathy is even more jaw dropping. The fact that you cannot recognize that those individuals signed up to protect their communities and help people. They're there to help you whenever you need it, if you hate them or not. It's sad that you cannot have a decent level of morals to understand this very easy-to-grasp concept. This man gave away his life for his community, the safety of others, and more importantly, the state. If you have something against that, fine, but don't come back yelling to police officers when you get shot for your blatant disregard of common sense and logic.

[@TRENDSYYY]

no other country has this much respect for police officers and military.

[@DaiyhDae]

Not that is true

They have more police their than the whole UK police force

not anymore, this video is 2 1/2 years old. Now they would boo and dance in the streets.

[@Kolby9241]

I remember meeting Mr. Parrish at a CrossFit gym in Castle rock. We had actually been raising money for a detective that was in critical condition. Not going to lie. He sparked my interest to join the law enforcement community and I have had that dream since. When I heard of his passing I was in shock. The man that inspired me-gone. I prayed and prayed for his family and community as they faced this loss together. You sir are in heaven and when my life is over I cannot wait to be by one of my heroes sides. Thank you for inspiring me Mr. Parrish.

[@arcane.5018]

Thanks for your service sir. Salute.

[@KwekuLee]

He was a good man

So heartbreaking. My deepest condolences to his family, friends and the Colorado Police Department.

@Paula Smith you mind at least using coherent grammar? Your comment looks like it was written by a 9 year old. I would show you to have some respect, but clearly your mental capacity is quite low and you can't be reasoned with.

[@turtletruth]

POLICE harass, intimidate, ticket, and arrest good moral people even in the rural farming communities far away from big cities!!. Police are the exact same everywhere ... (POLICE HEROICALLY WAR and OPPRESS TAXPAYERS for PROFIT) Traffic cops are the worst kinds of humans on planet earth!! IT'S ALL ABOUT ECONOMIC PROFIT ... Anybody who says they like the police are either liars or the police themselves! - QUALIFIED IMMUNITY "REMOVES" HUMANITY AND EQUAL JUSTICE ... - Turtletruth (Semper Fidelis)...

[@donahill112]

Never realized the camaraderie in the world of first responders until I went to the wake of one. I knew his sister-in-law and went there to see her. I learned that Representatives from every fire department, police department and EMT service that they had ever had contact with tried to come. I also learned that representatives from around the country came to show solidarity with their fallen brother. It was truly inspiring.

[@HaukeDerwisch]

Never seen this before, from a hard worker every resect to your families. You are wonderful people. Greetings from Germany.

Beautiful tribute for a fallen hero. Thank you !

[@turtletruth]

Police "Serve and Protect" the state for economic PROFIT at the expense of its taxpayers! Just like a person would choose life over suicide, everything in life is a choice, and so it is with the police who EXTORT incomes from their own citizens by way of speeding/traffic tickets! POLICE are the #1 "Most Hated "TAX Collecting TYRANTS" working against the American people for a paycheck! (Money, Arrest, or Death?) MAD! Traffic cops are the dirtiest and worst kinds of humans on planet earth! Traffic tickets have never been about safety and have never proven to change any person's driving habits, ever! IT'S ALL ABOUT ECONOMIC PROFIT ... - Turtletruth (Semper Fidelis)...

Lucky 2018 Lucky 2018 policing would be taken over by neighbouring departments as well as state patrol and most of the officers in the possession would most likely be off duty officers from all over the country either with take home vehicles or with permission to use their patrol vehicles if their department doesn’t allow officers to take their patrol vehicles home
