Two New York policeman were just shot dead. They were in their car and both were shot in the head. The shooter is also dead.

This has the potential to be a response to Ferguson.

Is it.

Were the cops white and the shooter black?

Does it matter?

Probably is...Two police officers are dead because the media glorified a myth, meanwhile race baiters Farrakhan and Sharpton got what they wanted

Anyone seen reports of angry mobs protesting the death of two cops by looting and rioting in Brooklyn? - me neither...

Two cops were shot dead by a wacko. Don't blame the press, and don't jump up and down trying to relate it to the Brown case.

Well said.

Don't you jump up and down trying to white wash it, he posted about shooting cops and was looking to exact vengeance for the deaths of Michael Brown and Eric Garner.

Thank you for the links which completely support my previous post. Saved me some time.

Just going by the same links, which might be proven wrong down the road, I know, I wonder why you would say they weren't related when they so obviously were. The shooter was of the opinion that they were related, and he would know.

Here's one very simple difference: I don't think the cop Wilson woke up that morning and said I'm gonna go kill a N*****r today, even though racial preconceptions may well have existed. The guy we are talking about now did wake up with an agenda. There's a significant difference.

Posted

Difference in original intentions, sure. But definitely related. Those two cops would be alive now if the other cases had not occurred, right?

So you crap on the recent controversial cop-killing cases, and then crap on the protestors too?

Maybe, just maybe, all of the shootings (and death-chokes) of both cops and civilians are disgusting. More evidence of the insane culture of guns and violence, perpetual racial issues, and BS justice system in the US.

What's with shooting his ex first?

I would guess that was the purpose.

I think this was an attempted murder suicide, and he made it a gruesome protest too.

A sick creep flame out.

Tragic for the officers.

It shows they were related... He announced online that he was planning to shoot two “pigs” in retaliation for the police death of Eric Garner then ambushed and executed two officers in a patrol car ,

I certainly 'crap' on protesters who perpetuate a myth and the protesters chanting kill cops in N.Y. and race baiters like Farrakhan. I agree the second case is questionable, but ALL lives matter, If you believe in justice you don't condone the killing of anyone including cops. But - no protests or riots when two cops are executed.

Except it's DIRECTLY related to the Brown thing..

No, just the head of the police union going on air to announce that they are now at "war" .

No one should be surprised that when politicians like New York's mayor, and publicity hounds like Sharpton turn cases into a huge 'blame the police' media campaign that some wacko is going to decide to do what he thinks they're calling on him to do. You say often enough how the police are a danger to black people and some idiot is going to take in all that self-righteous anger and do what seems, to him logical. Should be interesting to see what happens if De Blasio tries to attend the funerals.

De Blasio had a funny response to the police union blaming him.

The mayor’s office later issued a statement responding to the PBA, saying, “It’s unfortunate that in a time of great tragedy, some would resort to irresponsible, overheated rhetoric that angers and divides people

Most observers would say that is precisely what De Blasio and his allies have been engaged in since the Garner case appeared.

Oh so now you are taking the word of the perp as gospel. And what does it really have to do with anything anyway? He is a nut case, there are lot's of them walking around unfortunately.

You think that you know better why than the person that actually did the killing? Are you serious?

Posted

I was just pointing out your exact thought to a previous poster who seems to think they knows better than the person that did the killing.

Your example doesn't make much sense. One has to do with the self professed motives of the shooter and the other with unreliable self recollection of the event.

The guy was obviously seriously mentally disturbed. Setting a lot of store by what he may have posted on twitter is pretty much inconsequential at this point.

Not really. Mentally disturbed or not, it appears that his trigger had to do with the misplaced hysteria surrounding these cases.

I agree. Turns out this was one disturbed person with a violent history. Apparently his mother was afraid of him. I don't think there is any doubt the recent protests and over the top rhetoric surrounding them, justified in his mind what he would probably have liked to do anyway.
