Nope, 13 hours later and still practically nothing. I'm guessing the spin is going to be huge on this one.
If they won't release info then they have Islamic ties IMO
I'm beginning to feel this way myself.
Or they have CIA/MK ULTRA ties. It has been proven that people can be brainwashed into doing an act they will never be able to recall. Dallas, like Orlando or any other mass shooting event of recent history could VERY easily be a false flag. Not that this didn't happen or wasn't real, people are most certainly dead, but the motive and reasoning is an open script and left to the media to write.
The timing of all of this mass shooting chaos is incredibly conspicuous. Only one suspect is now alive. I'm sure we'll never hear from them again, just like Tsarnaev.
Anything is possible and it should be VERY interesting to see how the media continues to present this disgusting event. No matter who dun it though, it is terrorism.
With events like Dallas, the internet becomes a VERY interesting place. Some sites are full of intelligent analysis and relatively thoughtful debate (ATS, Reddit). Others are full of hatred and jumping to conclusions and other randomness (LiveLeak, Infowars). Not surprising, but indeed interesting. Someone, it seems, is definitely trying to invoke the spirit of Niccolo Machiavelli to divide and conquer the American people with events like this.
On a side note I just wanted to say, no one goes to work expecting to not return home. Indeed, police officers take on a more significant risk and responsibility in regards to this, but it does not diminish the fact that when they don't sign off from their shift, it is a tragedy. Any and all death at the hands of others, fueled by hate, hurts my soul as I truly believe, No Man Is An Island.
May the fallen Officers find peace in their final resting place.

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!?!

The logic?.
Dead men tell no tales.
He was cornered, he was no longer a threat, they should have waited him out or waited till he offed himself in hopes of gaining as much information as possible if he didn't kill himself.
This isn't a fricking war zone.
That is not what I said. Do not put words in my mouth.
I don't dispute your definition, however it will very likely be of a retaliation effort by disenfranchised blacks. However this is speculation. The other scenario.... it will in fact be deemed terrorism.... But I feel that will only be partially correct, I'm leaning towards retaliation for the two blacks killed this week. This may have been in the planning stages for some time, simply waiting for a legitimate trigger such as the blacks deaths.

Well yes but a hate crime can also at the same time be a terrorist act but does not have to be per se. ! person can beat up another person and that can be a hate crime but calling that a terrorist act would be a bit of a stretch. In the case of dallas both terms easily apply in my opinion.
terrorism is
the use of violence and intimidation in the pursuit of political goals, and to instill fear.
sounds like what happened last night.

Not a good comparison. I believe you may have missed the point I was trying to make.

Have they released any info on the suspects yet? They were pretty quick to post a picture of some random black guy but now that one of the shooters is dead we still have no info.

They halt pride marches, we agree to their demands.
They interrupt vigils for victims in Orlando, we give them a free pass.
Their co-founders repeatedly call for killing whites and march in the streets chanting for the death of police, we turn a blind eye because we don't want to be called racist.
If BLM want's to be taken seriously, they should stop being race baiters and political agitators.
