well, since you're keeping score...another gun nut overcompensating for his tiny stature appears to be the case
He was described in the court records as a white male who stood 5’8″ and weighed 126 pounds. Highnote also had a weapons permit that expired in 2010 in Volusia County, online records show. He also previously had hunting permits in Florida. He doesn’t come up as currently registered to vote in Florida.
well, so the killer just chose to kill two cops and the killer obviously left other people in that restaurant alone. They were killed because they were cops. It is just a fact.
From what I understand they were sitting in front of the window. He didn't walk in and choose them - -he stood outside and shot in.
Was he targeting them - or were they sitting in the seats that would most likely end up with someone being killed. I don't know. You don't know.
Apparently he walked up from down the street. Was he just crazy and just stopped and shot and then shot himself. We don't know - you don't know -- I don't know.
It does seem they were targeted......but we don't know for sure.

If you agree it does seem they were targeted, then why do you still argue? sheesh.
To be realistic -- in 2001 60 officers were killed by guns, 34 in 2003, 67 in 2006, and 46 in 2017. These stats clearly indicate no 'rise' in shootings on police officers. It seems to be random and not showing an overall increase.
That's the problem with 'feelings' and 'emotions' -- they are not always factually accurate.
Overall, officer fatalities from all causes including accidents are up 16 percent from last year, according to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund. But the number of officers fatally shot by suspects is up by 67 percent year over year.
Even your left buddy here said it does seem like they were targeted. Why pointing out the obvious is hypocritical? What assumption? I said nobody knew the MOTIVE, but obviously these officers were killed because they were officers, they were obviously targeted. sheesh
I'm not a left buddy -- so you stand corrected on this.
AND
Nothing is obvious -- it SEEMS they were targeted is not they were OBVIOUSLY targeted.
you don't know - you assume, you think you know but you don't.

you don't know - you assume, you think you know but you don't.
Neither do I -- it could be either.
well, I assumed you were a left, for that I assumed
Other than that, not sure what I assumed.
I don't know the killer's motives, (which I have said it many many times) but I know they were killed because they were officers. Even you said, it seemed they were targeted. That is the ONLY point I was making.
Please, stop playing the word games here. It is OBVIOUS the killer targeted them, using language like "You don't know, I don't know, nobody knows" does not really change anything here.
because stories like a hero pilot landing a plane with debris flying around in the aircraft, a passenger killed, and a window blown out or two young police officers shot to death while just eating lunch can't compete with the horror and tragedy of two black guys being arrested at a starbucks in philly....
Sorry, but it was all over the news today. Both local and national.
