Default Sniper attack on police at BLM protest

Link here:

http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/breaki...z&OCID=DELLDHP

Five dead, six wounded. Sniper tactics targeting the police.

If it turns out to be BLM members, it is domestic terrorism. If that is the case, I hope steps are taken to shut this organization down quickly and ruthlessly.

The only positive to come out of this: If BLM members are responsible, Obama will have to tap dance around the fact he hosted a domestic terrorist organization at the White House.

As a society, I fear we are circling the drain.....

Yeah but with the alliance between CAIR and BLM, is very possible that some emboldened, ready for action radicals may be behind this heinous acts.

Standing by for more info...

My thoughts are with the injured and deceased officer's families, brothers, and sisters. Stay safe out there...

God help law enforcement and God help US if clinton wins. Her endless pandering to blacks in general and BLM in particular is only going to exacerbate the crisis.

It's exceptionally sad, not just for the victims' families and friends, but for America in general. And, of course, obama rings the bell for MORE gun control laws.

I trust most of COTEP supports the good guys in blue but I suggest we really let them know every chance we get. I took a couple dozen donuts to my local station this morning. The officer behind the glass gave me a quizzical look and said "donuts?"

I told him there's nothing I can do about Dallas but I can let my local department know that I appreciate them and their service to the community. He thanked me, with that same quizzical look, as I left them on the counter and walked out. Small gesture but they know one resident gives a hoot.

Praying for all involved down there, what a horrible event! The backlash will be hell all around.

good for you!!! We do get food gifts from time to time in the office from various businesses or people and they are very much appreciated.
We like free food, who doesn't. We like the support.
