The shooting on the protest

Post by Terraniux » Fri Jul 08, 2016 2:50 am

I'm shocked when I saw the news.

I can't quite tell what's true on the news and what's not.

What happened???!!

I have only been able to scan the story, but it appears that the police and the BLM protesters were getting along very well - maybe TOO well for some people, before the gun shots from some protesters rang out.
I am thinking that some protesters did not want that to happen. ???

The sniper wasn't with the BLM crowd, as he targeted police of all racial distinctions.

Tallies have varied as it was going down, essentially there were a total of 12 officers shot and 5 of them have died.

It was initially believed to be 2 snipers but they've only been going on about 1 in the news today. He's a US army veteran.

MultiversesNews is my little Twitter home:

So, more details from those 2 searches of it.

So.... How is the situation there now. Things cooled off or still some heat going on?

Turned out he was bent on killing white police officers.
Nothing has cooled off.
Dallas has reduced the amount of deaths because of cops on people by 75% in the last 25 years and has one of the most progressive police departments in the country.
The whole thing is very sad.

Hermskii, as you live in texas, how's the feeling, and the general issue betweens yet the beautifull thing about the USA as what needs to be changed badly. We( the Netherlands and rest of Europe) look up the USA. I mean, how do you hold up and keep on living. Please don't misinterpret this post What's keeping you on the right direction. Same is for Hook and EG. It's my dream to visit the USA once, and especial all users here from the USA.

Such a big and great country!

From my understanding that's not the case.

He was determined to kill police officers, not just the ones that were caucasian.

Okay, scratch that, got curious and did some googling. He did say he wanted to kill white police officers, although he didn't only shoot white cops... so, so much for that.

Yeah, you did not have to "dig" too far to find that he wanted to kill white officers.
That was quoted of him all over the news.
Also, he was planning on other killing of whites episodes, and all this for quite some time.

It feels like the whole world is going crazy. I guess given the news of another lone terrorist attack in Nice, France tonight, that that is exactly what is going on.
The last time it got this crazy was 100 years ago. And we got WW 1 out of it. Then 20 odd years later, when the democracies were self destructing, or at least teetering on the brink, the fascists got together, and with the cooperation of the Russian communists we got WW 2.

Given the increasingly bellicose nature of China, and Japan's plans to rethink their military's purpose, expect to see a confrontation that leads to a war in the Pacific in the coming decade(s). War is coming. Count on it.
Divest yourself of your Chinese investments, while you ponder this threat.

Yeah,

Something is about to happen. I look forward to it too since it should stop the routine we're in right now.

I disagree with the notion of something is about to happen.

It's already happening... just doesn't have a specific end in sight.

I'm thinking if Hilary wins in November as I expect her to that crap is going to hit the fan. Every single person who ran for President was an insider except one. That one crushed nearly all previous voting records while becoming the nominee. That person being Trump.

If she wins it is fixed and there will be hell to pay. If he wins there will be hell to pay because he is going to clean house.

All of the republicans that want Trump to lose can't be republicans. Id he loses she wins. they want him to lose so they keep their jobs and can continue doing nothing all day. If he wins they'll have to work or get removed.

The conservatives want Trump to win. The democrats and fake republicans want her to win.

We'll see what happens in the end but I'm saying either way crap is going to hit the fan. I'm still for Trump right now.

I think on it like this, if Hillary wins not much of anything will change. More or less the same status quo we've got now that nobody is terribly happy with...

...on the other hand, if Trump wins... well... this country won't be here very long after that.

That man terrifies me on SO MANY LEVELS and the way white power / neo-Nazi / kkk idiots just see him as like their messiah, they'll use his becoming PotUS as a rallying cry. Not that he's one of their kind... but it's a thin divider between what he is and what they represent.

Trump is the end of days wrapped in a less than literate, poorly expressed, indecisive, bigoted, sexist, nutjob who says he wants to make America great again by using methods that are the exact opposite of what makes this country great; our country which was already great before he even started that tired slogan.

I'm not voting for either of them, but I could live with Hillary as president without fearing Armageddon.

I think that these last three replys should be moved over to David's "2016 Presidential Elections" thread, because the conversation has drifted from the protest shootings to one of pure politics.

I agree with both Herm and EG. The crap will hit the fan. How bad that will be is anyone's guess. And the thought of the Donald as "PotUS" is scarey indeed. Review my earlier posts in David's thread for my reasons.

And now I will repeat something I said a few years ago. Herm, you should enter the political scene. Not necessarily to run for office, but to help make the changes to GOP that I gather you feel need doing. You can be a lot more effective in that area working behind the scenes than you ever could by holding office. Think about it. I think they need you.

I might've gone a little overboard. Like an explosion in my head, the moment I started typing that all just poured out.
