I normally would want to purchase a weapon to protect myself and my family with the direction this country is heading in but now I'm worried that I would be viewed as another one of these idiots for one obvious reason.

When you look at it as a whole, Hillary benefits the most from this situation. And she clearly has the support of both the elites and the Washington establishment.

Plus look at what we're NOT talking about anymore...

Exactly. Like any group, it's the 1% of b ad participants which overshadow the rest. It is sickening.

Five officers are dead — four Dallas police officers and one Dallas Area Rapid Transit officer — after two snipers ambushed and opened fire on police at the end of a peaceful protest against nationwide officer-involved shootings Thursday night, officials say.
Seven officers and two civilians also were injured in the shootings.

Oh the irony of a protest against police violence ending in violence against the police. MLK should be rolling in his grave.

Authorities say three people are in custody and one suspect is dead in Dallas. They haven't revealed details about the shooters or their motives.

I think their motives are painfully clear.

Not to me.

They killed 5 innocent people at a peace protest. There is no rationalization for this other than total fucking stupidity.

Stupid people are dangerous people.

Let's see...a group of black men target and kill cops at a rally against police violence after a week of 2 black men being killed by police. It's bullshit, kalm. :coffee: Maybe their motive was to call attention to the need for alternative fuels or lower health care costs. Oh, I know. Their motive was to kill cops in protest of new zoning restrictions. Get your head out of your ass. :ohno:

As to the 5 innocent people, I'll bet it was ricochets. It's sad all around. Twitter is already full of people congratulating these animals, trying to inspire more attacks and even offering to help. It's fucking sick.

I'll call this one like I see it....black men murder cops in protest of the two black men killed this week. Done. And if i'm wrong, i'll admit it. But, I seriously doubt it.

It wouldn't be a Peaceful BLM Protest without some C-Store robbing (in memory of Michael Brown). :ohno:

The "snipers" were wearing body armor, so yeah, their intentions were obvious.

They had armor, they were crouching behind pillars and luring police to them (actually, pretty smart), witnesses saying they had AR-15s, one guy had so much ammo, the mags were falling out of his pocket.

I'd say an attack was planned a while ago.

Dallas Police Chief David Brown confirmed Friday morning that the shooters targeted white officers. “The suspect said he was upset about Black Lives Matter,” said Brown, who is black. “He said he was upset about the recent police shootings. The suspect said he was upset at white people. The suspect stated that he wanted to kill white people, especially white officers.”

My point...questionable killings of police suspects in other cities, hundred-thousands of miles away motivates a person to plan and execute on 2 days notice an attack on completely innocent police officers in Dallas? It's hard for me to fathom that level of thinking.

That's all I was saying. I'm just a peaceful PNW quasi hippie who loves everyone. So please....

That's why, logically, it seems that they were already well armed. They just needed the motivation to do it, which happened this week.
