The snipers, of course, were the criminals in this case. You don't think there was an attempt to tie the snipers to BLM in this thread?

I don't rule that out.

 

[patrick jane]

So was there more than one shooter?

 

[Tambora]

To right it was.

It was a reaction to the numerous dubious shootings of black people by white police officers.

That is an obvious fact.

What doesn't seem obvious is that both are clearly wrong. You seem in abject denial about the issue the escalated into this confrontation.

What would people on this board be suggesting if black police officers were regularly murdering and abusing white citizens because of racial profiling. I'm sure more than one would be shouting for 'civil war' and the shooting the black police officers.

The denial of this clear problem is part of the build it to today's events.

What has seemed to happen today is that 4 citizens of the USA chose to fight the authorities and probably die, because they were so disgusted by the lack of justice afforded to there racial grouping within the USA.

To an extent these men were not overly different to the Oregon protestors, just at a different extreme, and from a different racial grouping, they were more direct and ruthless than the guys at Oregon, but they had the same sense of alienation and not belonging and were willing to take it to the end of the line.

Listen. moron, I do not approve of police brutality of anyone for the sole purpose of hating their race.
But even in those cases, the officers were not plotting a murderous ambush to open fire on as many blacks as they could from a hidden distance.
How do you let your mind get so distracted from that?

 

[Tambora]

So was there more than one shooter?

Yes.
The gunfire came from at least two different elevated positions.

The shooter they cornered is now dead after trading gunfire with the SWAT team during a standoff where they had him cornered.
His pic in my post #81.

No one had taken sides, and read the first line.

Incidents don't happen in vacumes, events lead up and away from tragic events. Asking questions round them may give you the ability to consider limiting the chances of them happening again.

Moral indignation may make you feel more certain about the uncertain world you live in and how wonderful you are, but gives you no ability to consider ways to limit this from happening again.

We know why he did it.
Because he wanted to kill white people, and especially white cops (and it didn't matter to him whether they were good cops or bad cops, just as long as they were white).

During the standoff:

[FONT=&quot]The suspect said he was upset at white people. The suspect said he wanted to kill white people, especially white officers. The suspect said we will eventually find the IEDs ([/FONT]improvised explosive devices)[FONT=&quot].

"White elitist" exists. They are called socialist, whose goal is a ruling party and a worker party. The names of the groups often change over time. Lord and serf ruled over Europe for centuries.

How in the world has the public got fire power like this in America?

I almost moved to the States, in a town where two girls were gunned down simply because they witnessed a drug deal.

The gun issue is so messed up.

We live in a country where citizens have the right to bear arms ........ so we can shoot back at lunatics committing a shooting frenzy.

 

[rexlunae]

I don't rule that out.

And why is that?

 

[patrick jane]

The news is only speaking of one lone shooter

Why in the world would the general public need a high powered rifle with telescopic sight?
Why not give them a tank?

And provide the lunatics with plenty of arms....

Americans, for a western "liberal" democracy, live in an uniquely violent society. You don't see anywhere near the bloodshed and suffering in Canada, Britain, Europe, Australia etc. Obviously there's an abundance of firearms, making killing easier, but what I'm wondering is what makes American culture so violent...

Yes exactly, and isn't the right to bear bazookas enshrined in the Constitution?

Live in the South and you won't wonder. Warm seasons a hundred degrees or better with humidity you normally find in a swimming pool. Couple that with firearms and ta-da! Mayhem ensues.

That said, everyone I know in my town is a gun owner. We've been hunters and shooters for generations, but we're brought up to respect the weapon and taught how to use it safely. There hasn't been a homicide here in generations.

All rifle rounds are deadly if shot at a human being, less so for smaller caliber "assault weapons". certainly you are not calling for ban on all rifles. lastly it is perfectly legal to own a tank in america

 

[Crucible]

Man gets shot with girlfriend and baby in car- nobody bats an eye. They routinely pull out their pistols ready to shoot somebody; they may as well be walking death traps.

They go from being a solution to a problem- there are many cases where lives could've been spared if the police actually didn't get involved :AMR:

But then
Police get sniped, and people are all like 'oh, what a tragedy'!

Whatever
