Lessons From The Metro Police Shootings

One of the eulogies for Officer Igor Soldo noted that there's a lot of evil in the world. Is that the only takeaway from the shootings of two police officer and a bystander eight days ago? Does this show us that evil can win? Or is there some larger pattern? Should this shake our religious faith?
