This whole thing reeks. I hate to be a conspiracy theorist here, but a well planned out and orchestrated shooting with multiple gunmen, just a day after the police shootings? How convenient. This is way too good of timing and with the election coming up, who knows? Terrorists kill random people, not target cops. People angry over the police killings don't have the organization or time to plan and pull something like this off on such short notice. I don't know, it just seems fishy to me.
I'm sorry, Heading back to the prepper/survival forum now .
This may be one piece in a puzzle that will unfold through this summer. If this kind of thing happens in other cities, martial law may be declared...possibly resulting in November's election being cancelled. Then we're going to be stuck with King Bobo indefinitely. Anyway, it's pushed the Hillary Clinton witch (pun intended) hunt off the front page. She's probably breathing a huge sigh of relief.
So unbelievable sad about this tragedy of this terrorist attack!
There seems to have been a sniper involved which doesn't seem to look like an unplanned incident or work place violence.
This seems to be planned. Makes me wonder how this relates to the other two incidents IF it does.
If the cops were guilty of killing someone in cold blood they should be punished but if they were at fault than the cops should be exonerated.
Many people get pulled over for tale lights all over the world and many people carry guns and cops don't just start shooting like it is the 1900 when no cameras were around.
Something must has happened and we need to see what prove both sides will show and not just a tape provided by one side that started after the fact. It makes me wonder how someone can start taping this and giving commentary at the same time while a gun is pointed to the person next to you and that person is dying... might all be true and factual but I want to see all proof or at least it to be investigated and nobody to make conclusions without all facts.
The cops randomly being killed is absolutely a terrorist attack on cops!
This seems to be planned. Makes me wonder how this relates to the other two incidents IF it does.
Due to the amount of people involved and the planning I suspect it isn't and it's Islamic terrorists that simply took advantage of a situation. By killing cops at this event they are trying to drive a deeper wedge between the police and the black population. They are also going to further the calls for more gun control with this type of attack. ISIS has a lot of sophistication and well aware of the psychological and political damage they can do. I'm sure they are all for gun control.
I honestly have a difficult believing that 4 (reported) shooters who clearly planned this had anything to do with the shootings in Minnesota and Louisiana. It sounds planned, and took advantage of the protest. We may not know....but heres the deal. Either way, police departments all over the country are going to get back the assault vehicles super guns and funding which the Obama administration took away. If you as a driver are approached by a police officer put both hands on the wheel and follow instructions. There are no options with the police and at this point they are going to be ratcheted up.
Dangerous times, Be smart, and for god sakes FIX YOUR BROKEN TAIL LIGHTS!
This is the America the NRA wants. Kids shot in schools. People shot in office buildings. Minorities shot during staff stops. Police shot out in the open. Gun sales through the roof, and a pliable Congress that will do nothing to stop the violence and death.
"From our cold dead hands!" (Literally!)
