Ridiculous Police News (Specific events)

[Anoat]

I flipped to Fox to watch their coverage and lasted about 10 minutes before they brought on a talking head who literally started blaming Obama for this and saying this would embolden ISIS for more attacks, lol

[Talint]

Former Rep Joe Walsh went batshit crazy, called for war against Obama.



(we may need a new thread?)

[Xno Kappa]

Real America huh?

[Fiye]

I'm wondering if ISIS caused this.

press conferance going on now

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...-shooting-live

The suspect we are negotiating with … has told our negotiators that the end is coming and he’s going to hurt and kill more of us … and that there are bombs all over the place, here and downtown.

Brown says police are “being very careful with our tactics”.

I don't know if this angle was posted yet, just saw it.

[tyven]

so the one guy they've interviewed sounds like a fucking lunatic, saying the end is coming. This shit is SO crazy. I mean clearly this attack was too well coordinated and precise for it to have been some upset BLM protesters with an afternoon of planning, right?

FOX10 stream aired an interview with some guy about an hr ago who basically said that Dallas Police was covering up their wrong doings and that we should consider why this happened.

Dallas mayor advised most of downtown Dallas will likely be closed tomorrow as its an active crime scene and they have no timetable for when it will be clear. Advised people to stay home from work.

Police update: a summary

Dallas police are engaged in a standoff with an armed suspect in a garage. The suspect has fired at police and claims to have placed bombs in the city:

The suspect we are negotiating with … has told our negotiators that the end is coming and he’s going to hurt and kill more of us … and that there are bombs all over the place, here and downtown.

Three other people have been detained by police: a woman who was stopped close to the garage, plus two people who were stopped in a dark Mercedes.
Dallas police chief David Brown said police believed four people had worked together to launch the attack, but he did not speculate on any motive for the shootings. He said the people in custody were not cooperating:

We are waiting for the suspects to break.

Four officers – one Dart transit officer and Dallas three police officers – have died.
Seven others were shot and injured.
One civilian was also wounded.

I don't like BLM at all, but there's no fucking way they could plan such a coordinated attack.

What's ironic is that the area this happened in is very close to where Kennedy was assassinated.

[Headspace]

Whoops. Stumbled into the_Donald on accident. Should've known better and gotten out immediately.

The "BLM movement" ya'll keep referring to is too busy being co-opted by neoliberal opportunists and clergymen. Saying a duo of snipers is associated with legitimate protests is like saying the NBPP is the same as the BPP or that minutemen are the same as the border patrol.

I live in a small town without a single non-white cop. Every time I see a cop I hear a little voice in the back of my head say "that cop is gonna shoot you, get the fuck outta here." Now I see a livestreamed execution and I'm not at all surprised that cops are being gunned down in the street. I may not leave the house tomorrow.

[Anoat]

Going to bed, hope shit calms down. I wonder what the story will be tomorrow? What a crazy couple of days.

5th officer died from his wounds

News said: "KDFW: 5th officer killed after snipers open fire on downtown Dallas"

I assume that just means from earlier.

[Gokku]

Yup I'm requesting off work

At least I'm not alone in feeling this exact way right now. Jesus Christ.

Sad shit is, I've never felt leery towards the local enforcement or et al. Officer buddies from all over. Now I'm legit shook at it all.

Fuck this nation sometimes.

[Fhloston]

Really frightened for a couple of relatives that are cops here in Houston. Only 4 hours away from all of that madness.

One of the suspects shot himself.
