Duckus Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Figured I would start a new thread, I was putting it in the other shooting threads. But this appears to be fairly major. This is developing now. All over Twitter. Two police officers shot. https://twitter.com/Reuters/status/751241078771179520 Video with shooting sounds: https://twitter.com/allisongriz/status/751234755882995713 Video: https://twitter.com/gjmccarthy/status/751235829327015937 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koolblue13 Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 There's a war coming at home and it'll be between half the population, who is all around the poverty line and it will be great for the people at the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tshile Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 There's a war coming at home and it'll be between half the population, who is all around the poverty line and it will be great for the people at the top.What if you're not at the top, but you're comfortably away from the poverty line? Do you get to watch or will the poor force you to participate one way or the other? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duckus Posted July 8, 2016 Author Share Posted July 8, 2016 I do wonder if we are reaching a true boiling point. Unfortunately this guy will be celebrated as a hero by some more misguided souls. #DallasShooting is filled with people who directly blaming Obama for this shooting, already. So that's constructive.

s0crates Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 I was just thinking this morning how grateful I was these nationwide protests hadn't turned to anything like we saw in Ferguson, it had been peaceful, and police at the protests were conducting themselves very well. I'm worried that we are going to see a lot of ugliness now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC9 Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Unfortunately this guy will be celebrated as a hero by some more misguided souls. Steady. We know very little at this point other than shots were fired and at least two officers are down. Knowledge is power. Let's wait on some facts.

Duckus Posted July 8, 2016 Author Share Posted July 8, 2016 This video is insane. Very close to the shooting. Not graphic, but intense. https://www.facebook.com/AstridNews/posts/1254205517953631 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingGibbs Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Because of the irrational actions of a few cops they have now put their brothers and sisters in grave danger for the foreseeable future. Cops must now have their heads on a swivel. Another sad day in this country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duckus Posted July 8, 2016 Author Share Posted July 8, 2016 Via Dallas police, shooter still at large On a side note, wonder when Facebook launched LIVE if they thought it was essentially turn into a platform for these sort of events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
