Kinda like the Orlando shooter narrative that he was a gay hater because he was gay?

Funny huh

So far I've heard that they got one in custody... one shot himself, which they were saying for hours while the event was still unfolding... and one was blown up with a robot bomb.

Now the narrative being pushed is that it might have been a lone gunman?

Exactly.

Seems like they will describe it any other way, then to call it for what it really is.

A terrorist act. I do not understand why can't I call this attack that, when it's what it is.

Now they're trying to twist it into some terrorist BS.

If it were terrorists they would have fired into the crowd for mass casualties and had people firing at the cops when they showed up too.

They're even trying to blame terrorists for spikes in crime in metro areas according to some reporter.

That's not what happened.



even if he got it second hand, it was very irresponsible not to call off the protest, and inform police. he cared more for his protest than he did the police or anyone that could have been killed.


He claimed to have talked with a fellow protester who spoke with the shooters beforehand. “We gonna kill somebody tonight,” the shooters allegedly told the protester. He described them as “young black guys,” and continued to note that “they’re not part of this community.”

And lots of people just say things after the fact, especially if they think it will bump up their status.
True but in this instance i do simply do not see how it would change much to the fact. Whether the supporters came from another town or this one.

Even if they were part of his group, of course he's not going to say it.

Imagine him saying oh yes, some guys from our group said they will be shooting some white guys, but we thought they are joking...

That sadly is Obama's doing.

A very good point. I guess no life mattered all of a sudden.

So he (they?) wanted to kill whites and had hatred for BLM.


Also, blowing up a suspect...
I wonder what training session that came from!?!

Errm, it was a terrorist act targeting police. Or are police not people now?

You're right. A congressman reported seeing a staffer with a firearm. Apparently everyone overreacted.

I've never heard of blowing up suspects with bombs strapped to robots. Why not just shoot him with a bazooka if thats the case??!?!



No one had a bazooka.

I think it was an accident when the robot was removing the bomb.



eta; I was wrong. Got my ears crossed when they were talking about it. Sorry!

Aw hell, everything is a terrorist act then.

Even contempt of court...

K?.

Terrorist act = Average Joe being afraid to go to the store because he might get randomly targeted, not someone who chose to possibly, knowingly become a target, by their job choice. If you don't like being a target, don't be a cop or soldier.

I'd rather hear from our resident Cops if this was a terror attack than you.

There is a proper definition to the crime "Terrorism" than just "I think it should be".

Call it what you want, Brett, but you're not the decider of how this crime will be labelled by Authorities.

Question to Americans. Do you think this is a one off attack or do you expect more follow up attacks?
