Kinda my point. Whitman wasn't an expert at all, and yet still killed several people. The dickbag in Dallas had at least rudimentary training and attacked a group that wasn't stood to waiting for his attack.
Again, not saying that I fully believe he acted alone. But I don't think it should be so casually dismissed as impossible for him to have done it. I, for one, don't know how many people were around the group of officers that he attacked.

It's also easier to push the gun control agenda if there was a "lone wolf" as opposed to a group. "Just look at the carnage just a single man can do with evil guns!", right? "We had to send in killer robots even to subdue the subject!" And then there's the element of "we got all the perps, there's no one else at large. Everyone be calm, we've got it under control", ...right?.
Win, win, win...right?
Oh no, there's NO spin and manipulation going on here; nope, none at all!! [/extreme sarcasm]

Of course, there is this:

Among the five suspects now in Dallas Police custody are self described "Islamic Americans" who attended a Nation of Islam mosque in the South Dallas area. It should be noted that the Nation of Islam itself is splintered into several groups. Louis Farrakhan, who took over the organization in 1981, subscribes to Dianetics and appears to have left Islam altogether. It's ideology is barely recognizable as Islamic.
Johnson liked the Nation of Islam

Backlash has already begun.. Capital One has replaced Samuel Jackson with a smiling white lady saying, "What's in Your Wallet?".
Maybe President Obama won't be viewed as so friendly an advocate when he's on Hillary's campaign trail.
