Deleted the picture that the Dallas PD tweeted. All reports indicating that this guy turned his gun in to the police and was later filmed without the gun running from the area.

Sure it will. He'll use it as another excuse to blame the NRA and law abiding gun owners. As well as somehow turning this around to make it all the fault of law enforcement, for actually enforcing laws equally and not giving all blacks a free pass when they commit crimes.

HAH... you want odds, which shows that even you didn't believe what you stated. You gave up the pretense, and just like me, you have prejudged whether you like it or not.


Sadly, we are probably both absolutely correct.


I wish this was a terrorist exploitation of opportunity, but sadly, we all know it most likely is not.


This entire night SUCKS! The racial divide created by our fearless leaders has led to this.
Since it's Texas, I'll bet it's those "anti-government" type.

I'm doubtful it's BLM or jihadists. It could also be mentally ill or stupid kids....

I hope that they catch the shooter and no one else gets hurt in the process. My prayers go out to the officers and their families

Exactly.

Some people just love to add more fuel to the fire. They really don't care for the dead, they just want to promote their political agenda and create more racial tension

What a nightmare. Worst thing that could have happened. If Blacks thought life was hard before, just wait you ain't seen nothing yet. The cops nationwide are gonna be on edge. Whitey better watch out too.

I know that was sarcasm, but as a Libertarian - it was a really bad one

Wow I just had a friend call and told me exactly what you just stated. This friend is a democrat, a good friend, and disgusted by this evening. He wants Obama to comment on this, he also said this would be the right time since he never has before. He lives in Huston.


He is sicken by this. And the man in question is not white, but what does that matter.

I've posted that I don't think the US can survive long-term. Even I'm surprised how quickly the country is disintegrating.
