Disagree. Reporting doesn't kill people, just like guns don't kill people by their ownself.

And with that, I think I'm done with this board. It struck me while out on a run the other day that there's something ungentlemanly, actually, more than that, there's something inherently unmanly, almost shrewish, about posting anonymously on a message board. It's just not for me. And, it's a great waste of time.

But I thank you all. I've learned a great deal. Good luck.

lol....you said, "reporting" like that's what muh media actually does....

and, I agree with the second para.....my arse is done after this election....

I only use it for specific reasons....

Ignore the media.

All blacks aren't criminals All Muslims aren't terrorists All white cops aren't racist killers.

Don't let hate fill your heart

Reports now saying shooter did not take his own life. Cops took him out with robot armed with bomb.

Here are some stats for your ignorance, this was posted in another thread.

Breaks it down to age, race, gender, etc.

In 2008, there were approximately 1.1 million police officers in the US. So if we use those numbers, and let's just assume that a different cop performed each kill, that means that only .09% of cops were involved in killing of a civilian in 2015.

If we look at the amount of black people killed in 2015, that means only .02% of cops killed black mean, compared to .05% of white people.

While there are definite injustices performed by police, stats show that less than 1 hundredth of 1 percent of police shot and killed someone in 2015.

So can someone explain to me why some groups want to act as if this is something that only affects black people, and acts as if this is something that goes on all day, every day. Cops that wrongfully shoot and kill someone deserve to be punished to the highest extent of the law, such as the shooting of the man in his car (cop wasn't white btw). However, the moron in Louisiana who already had a length record, and decided to resist arrest while carrying a gun, you can't expect that to end well, and he put himself in a situation to be shot.


Going off these stats, black people are 10 times more likely to be killed by a civilian with a firearm, than a police officer (http://www.nsc.org/learn/safety-knowledg...art.aspx).

Then, if we want to break it down further, in 2008, there was an estimated, 40,000,000 instances of police interaction with civilians (http://www.bjs.gov/content/pub/pdf/cpp08.pdf). So if we want to look at the percentage of being shot and killed by police in relation to the number of interactions, that percentage is .002%. 2, one thousandths of one percent for the total shooting deaths by police. .0006% of black people. Does anybody even know what comes after the thousandth place in a decimal?
And this isn't even considering that most likely, a large percent of the 990 killed, were likely justified, which makes these percentages even lower.

So at the end of this all, are we really focusing on the right issue by blaming widespread police injustice, or should we be looking past that, and looking at reasons why a man would be so quick to pull his gun on a man who told the police officer he has a CC permit and has a gun on him. Could it possibly be, that out of the 1.1 million police officers in this nation, .09% (this isn't 9%, this is 9 one hundredth of one percent) of those people do not have enough training, or the mental capacity to process a situation fast enough, to be able to handle that situation properly?

Welcome to ignore goon.

Well, its a officially a hate crime.

Now lets see if it gets labeled as such.

'til vahalla Brother, Rest in Peace.

Marine, grandfather and newlywed: First of murdered Dallas cops identified

Quote:He was a newly married grandfather, a former U.S. Marine and a veteran cop who had gone to Iraq and Afghanistan to help train local police. But Brent Thompson died protecting the rights of fellow Americans to criticize his brethren in blue.

The 43-year-old Thompson, who joined the Dallas Area Rapid Transit police department in 2009, was the first identified of the five city police killed in a coordinated sniper attack Thursday night in a protest against police brutality. The other names, as well as several who were wounded, are expected to be released Friday morning, following the nation’s deadliest day for law enforcement since 9/11.

Marine serves tours in Iraq and Afghanistan yet is killed on the streets of Dallas by a racist.

There's no rationalizing the heinous act of killing innocent Muslims, simply because people's frustrations have been building due to actions of a bigoted, violent minority of jihadists.
