Unbelievable. Feel awful for the officers involved. All reports prior to the shooting were of a very peaceful protest with officers and protesters comingling. Some moron thinks shooting cops is the way to retaliate for cops shooting people? I know logical thought is out the window at this point, but how on earth do you not realize that shooting cops simply furthers their perception that everyone is dangerous and everyone is trying to kill them? This person absolutely derails movement they themselves support which was gaining so much momentum. |

No kidding Brum. Crowd mentality is a scary thing. |

5 police dead? 2 snipers? There is no way in hell this was a random incident. |

Lot of speculation about the possible training these guys had. There is one video, which I won't post, which shows one of the shooters at street level take on an officer. He very calmly suppresses the officer and comes around his cover from behind to kill him at point blank range. Lots of comments on the tactical, professional nature of the shooter. |

as tragic as the actual incident is in terms of loss of life....this has the makings of something far more serious than even that. |

The eyewitness accounts I've read said, at least the guy they saw, was decked out in tactical gear, heavily armed, and operated calmly and like this was well planned |

definitely well planned from what I can tell as well...and planned over a period of time. Perhaps just waiting for the right timing? |
