        IMO, It is looking to me more and more likely to be Sons of Islam. I have yet to see any expendables in the BLM movement be this organized or efficient. LE said 2 snipers in strategic nests fired approximately 60 shots.

        LE is also inspecting a suspicious package that was found near a suspect who is in custody and who exchange gunfire with police.

        Muslims have a very strong impetus for furthering chaos and racial strife to America.

      They’re now reporting 4 cops are dead and they’re negotiating with one of the shooters. Someone needs to give the order to shoot to kill not negotiate.

        Ladtvweek when a feral black thug murderd the officer who stopped him in the process of an armed robbery there was no press conference by the Louisiana governor decrying tne officer’s death, not a peep. Only when an atmed black male suspected of pointing a gun at a homeless man was shot did he clear the decks to slap police.
        Now I’m hearing from officers who’ve seen the full videos of the shooting that before the police shot there were noises that suspiciously sounded like gunshots. Theory is that the shootee msy have fired the gun while it was still in his pocket, let’s see.
        Press has been trying to minimize the credibility of the person who made the 911 call by saying he is ‘homeless’, making their intonation on the word close to ‘he’s something on a shoe’. Thry’re also droning on that the homeless guy ‘was irritating the shooter by continually asking for money’. So when the officers respobded to an ‘armed man threatening with a gun’ call and took down a less-than-compliant suspect who was armed…wel, they failed to use their inside manners.
        I still have a blacklight late-60s Blavk Panther poster, maybe I should hang it outside with my Islamic black flag so that the various angels of death passover my farm.

    One thing that stands out to me is that when the cops found the 2 suspects, they arrested them. They didn’t kill them and if ever there was a time when they might have snapped, this would be it. So much for police brutality. Not saying cops are always in the right, but this had to have been almost too much to bear without snapping.

      Police chief was just talked and I’m still not clear on what’s happening. 4 suspects in custody. 1 in negotiations and exchanging gun fire with police. Throw a grenade or 3 at him. Good grief.

      1 woman in custody.

      2 suspects stopped in a Mercedes.

    This may possibly end up being included in the “Ramadan Bombathon” totals.

    Police chief said that negotiations with the savage in the parking structure broke down and gun fire was exchanged. At that point LE sent a bomb robot with a live bomb into the area where the thug was pinned down, remotely detonated the bomb and sent the savage to his just reward.

    O Almighty God, Whose great power and eternal Wisdom embraces the universe, Watch over all policemen and Law enforcement officers everywhere.

    Protect them from harm In the performance of their duty To stop crime, robbery, Riots and violence.
    We pray, help them keep our streets And homes safe, day and night.

    We commend them to your loving care Because their duty is dangerous.

    Grant them strength and courage In their daily assignments. Dear God, protect these brave men and women.

    Grant them your almighty protection, Unite them safely with their families after Duty has ended.
    Please God, grant us this wish.

    Even after this massacre, the MSM propaganda continues as they rarely show the dead officers bodies and may have stopped altogether.

    Yet the MSM showed unending video of Frowny Brown, MacDonald, Scott, Castille, Sterling, et al, bodies solely to promote hatred of our officers.

    The bodies of the fallen officers leaving the hospital.

    I’m having trouble finding the pictures of the slain officers on the ground. MSM is definitely removing them as is social media sites.

    Clinton, Trump cancel political events after police deaths

    http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US_CAMPAIGN_2016?SITE=AP&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&CTIME=2016-07-08-10-07-01

    WASHINGTON (AP) — Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump both called off political events Friday, hours after five police officers were killed in Dallas during a protest over fatal police shootings of black men in other states.

    Trump, who had planned to address Hispanics in Miami, issued a statement calling the shootings “a coordinated, premeditated assault on the men and women who keep us safe.” He said the earlier deaths of two black men in Louisiana and Minnesota were a reminder of “how much more needs to be done” to restore public confidence in law and order…

    Lynch to speak at 11:30 on the Dallas dhooting, she’s expected to say the Feds will conduct a civil rights-related investigation. As I intimated yesterday, I’m betting that as they’ve immediately jumped into the Minnesota and Louidiana police shotings of blacks thry have dual reasons to jump into Dallas.
    First, thry cab
    Can’t have an activist black AG looking as if she’s out to Lynch white police, you kniw, like her predecessor seemed to be. The Feds not being interested in investigating the murder of a white cop by a black thug notwithstanding, they’re forced to throw their weight into this as a beard.
    Second, Obama has an agenda to bring back the halcyon days of black separatism/nationalism of the 60s/70s, no doubt infuenced by the revolutionary saga stories of Ayers. To have the perfect storm of two white police officers shooting two black suspects, all of it caught on easily manipulated video, was almost too good to believe. Then, as he tries to innundate the community in a sea of racial guilt, to have his followers jump the gun, so to speak, and start the bloodletting early blows the whole deal. Lynch has to try and minimize the truth-letting, redirect the narrative to the inapptopriate but planned theme of ‘it’s all white/Republican/conservative/Christians’.

      Over 50 years since the Kennedy shooting and Dallas still had problems dealing with elevated shooters and how many there are. Is it just me or are we looking atbyet another Dallad ‘grassy knoll shooter’ scenario. Apologists will have as much fun playing this one out as the Grassy Knoll folks fo Kennedy.

      I’m wondering if he’ll request Congress impose limits on the lethal use of bomb disposal robots. You just wait until the dust settles and the pundits start questioning the kosherness of strapping a bomb onto an otherwise benign device and using it to kill a mentally distressed person. Can’t wait for the Congressional Black Caucus to invoke Asimov’s Three Laws of Robotics.

    Guess Which Presidential Candidate Was Scheduled For A Black Lives Matter Event Today?

    See this earlier announcement via the New York Times:

    “Mrs. Clinton will be in Pennsylvania, with Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr., at events that will touch on the police-related deaths of Alton B. Sterling in Louisiana and Philando Castile in Minnesota, as protests raged in Chicago and New York.

    Mrs. Clinton, who is seeking to reassemble President Obama’s winning coalition amid the rise of the Black Lives Matter movement, has made criminal justice overhaul a hallmark of her campaign.”

    Today is one of those days that I am glad I live in an apartment, especially this apartment. It is in the 90’s and the humidity is high and my air conditioner died. I was just sitting here quietly and getting hotter and hotter. I checked the thermostat and it was up 5 degrees. So, I called the office and half an hour later it was fixed. 🙂 Yes, it is nice to be in this apartment.
