Cowards, they ambushed cops and shot them in the back.
I'm going to risk being put on ignore, but this doesn't have anything to do with how I feel on the subject:
Haven't a lot of the cop shootings been in the back AND on the ground?
Have they been in the back?

The closer view changed my mind. That was incredible.
Your natural reaction when you get flanked...and are surprised...is to seek cover.
This guy immediately launched a counter-attack and charged the flanker instead.
Either amazing natural reactions or he has had extensive training.

Good now we will know exactly why they did it.
My scientific wild ass guess is that this was retribution against the police for the shootings/deaths of the past year or two.
That would be the most likely conclusion but at the same time, this seems to be pretty coordinated. I mean for two people to come up with a plan to shoot 11 cops in less than a day sounds like it would take some serious planning.
really.....now you're an authority on that too.....
you have zero clue man....

One asked about Obama.........maybe "police acted stupidly" in the Henry Gates situation.
This country has gone too far down the political correctness path, allowing people to claim victimization for events when none exists. Ferguson was justified police action. The University of Missou rebellion was led by a multimillionaire's son, Tuwana Brawley and Sharpton. Freddie Gray was the vehicle for Marilyn Mosley to move up, riots and businesses destroyed. Police acted within their limits - another false flag. The Treyvon Martin case is the one that has the most validity for outrage...........but that is not what these idiots are using to fuel their protests. We need to crack down on these protesters, quit worrying about hurting feelings, and have an honest conversation about crime, imprisonment, and economic mobility in this country. The statistics are staggeringly brutal, and I am tired of dancing around the conversation.
So the cop who did what he did is actually not to blame but what Obama said is more of the cause? Come on man. Actions are more powerful than words. Dont blame the person for saying what they say and excuse the person for doing what he did. Thats just silly.
I never said anything about the current shootings, and even admitted I don't know enough about these situations to comment...so I did not. But you quickly jump to this event as the "justification" for the police shootings tonight. The action to which I refer is tonight's police officer ambush and the underlying reasons for that. I'll type slower and use smaller words if it makes it easier for your little moronic mind to better understand.
I wasnt justifying anything. Im simply pointing out the error of blaming people for saying things and dismissing the actions of others. Actions have consequences. If people from a certain race, creed, or color get shot, THEY are to blame for what happens next. NOT the people who opine on what happened oand why.

She was incredibly upset that he was targeted.
I have no words.
Still very unclear. He matched the description, camo pants and a vest.
I've only read this far, was on the road. Listening to this, and that dumb*** "why they arrest him?!?" broad, while the guy is standing there in a vest, my guess is he was a spotter.
Haven't heard if they've sorted it out any further, but I'll continue reading.
F#@%ing cowards shooting cops in the back, and we get the resident apologist chiming in that this is somehow justified, or blame the victims.
How many of these Cops where responsible for the shootings in Mn or La?
F@#$ing disgusting, and that bullschit spewing from Poland (I think that's right) earlier this evening was.... uhhhh, less than helpful.

Military training?
When he got flanked he immediately counter-attacked with brutal efficiency.
He didn't look like just your average hood.
So American military trained snipers did this? I think we are better than this. Perhaps they wanted to be.

Huge, huge, huge difference in shots fired in a life or death gunfight and aimed shots fired in ambush. If you can't draw that conclusion yourself then God bless your simple minded heart.

You are correct. I have no clue because it has never occurred to me how one might plan to kill cops. Please enlighten us oh brilliant sage.

RE: Cops down in Dallas right now.
Fitbud-
Have you looked at the violent crime statistics in this country? The proportion of the population versus the proportion of the crimes committed? It is a real issue.
Let's start with incentives to keep Black families together to work on the >70% out of wedlock births (not to mention the aborted babies for the same reason). This simple goal would goal would go a long way to ensuring a better economic environment for all people in this country.
