Eleven Dallas law enforcement officers were shot, three fatally, by what is believed to be two snipers who opened fire during a demonstration downtown over recent police shootings in Minnesota and Louisiana, the Dallas police chief said.

The snipers fired from an elevated positions on police officers minutes before 9 p.m., Dallas Police Chief David Brown told reporters.

"We believe that these suspects were positioning themselves in a way to triangulate on these officers from two different perches in garages in the downtown area, and planned to injure and kill as many law enforcement officers as they could," he said. Some were shot in the back.

Three of the 11 officers died, two are in surgery and three are in critical condition, Brown said.

I think people are talking past each other. Not able or willing to see the other sides valid points. We've been succesfully divided.

Certainly an accurate assessment.

The BLM protest was about the recent shootings in New Orleans and Minnesota.

So they execute Dallas cops? For all we know, race relations were just fine in Dallas. I say "were".

Do you think that the murdered officers reaped what they sowed?

I think the culture of paranoia that is within the police community has fostered events like in Dallas for the reasons already stated. A year or 2 ago, 2 police officers were shot and killed as they sat in their cruisers by some guy who apparently went to NY just to kill cops. The motive seemed to be the killing of the guy by a cop who put him in an illegal strangle hold. I don't remember names well. Was that the guy who was allegedly selling untaxed cigarettes or whatnot?

In spite of the illegal chock hold resulting in death no charges. Kinda like Hillary Clinton. Well, no. Not kinda. Exactly like HC. So many other incidents as well. To get charged, it has to be blatant, like the cop that shot the guy in the back as he was running away from him, and he probably was just unlucky that he was being filmed doing so. Even shooting people in the back as they are restrained on the ground is only sometimes prosecuted.

To answer your question, I don't even know the names of the cops killed in Dallas yesterday, much less a single thing about their history or temperment, so I have no idea what they sowed. But I'm sure that won't stop you from posting more libel about my state of mind, will it.

cops are constantly indoctrinated to the level of paranoia

It's a true, factual statement.

What's that private outfit that teaches cops how to shoot people at the slightest suspicion that their life is in danger? And then goes around offering legal defence for them after an innocent person gets shot and killed?

I'm not saying that and I don't think that's what it sounds like. It's a similar situation with US foreign policy of killing with drones and such in the mideast and elsewhere against "terrorists" but which too often kills innocent people. Friends and relatives of those innocent people become "radicalized" and then take up a cause of militant revenge, get labeled as terrorists and the cycle continues.

If one is going to be obligated to call one unjust killing unjustified, without being obligated to call other unjust killings unjustified, then that's a double standard, and that makes people take the law into their own hands. That's blowback. Will Roscoe, GI and others dare even suggest that the killing of the CC holder *might* be unjustified?

Will I be called to the mat on my statement, while they are given a free pass on theirs?

I guess I should formally ping them because I mention them, but they don't care what I have to say or think so I won't bother...

Well said.

I think this dialogue would be different if police officers in LA and MN were in a fire fight. Not Dallas where the dept there worked with the protest organizers.

Then, Deckard's "reap what you sow" might have had application if and only if the officers involved in the shootings of black men were those under fire.

Deckard, if your point is that the police nationwide are indiscriminate in their shooting of citizens and the group who murdered police officers last night indiscriminately killed cops is the 'reaping', then what you are promoting is lawlessness.

A lot of these 'cops shooting civilians' situations end up with acquittals or dismissals for a reason. Some reasons cited above by other posters. The officers are usually white and cases tried in left leaning Black Democrat held city governments with Black judges and somehow the police officers get their case dismissed or they are exonerated. Why is that? Baltimore is case #1. Then we have Chicago as case #2.

In Chicago we have complete lawlessness in many neighborhoods. The City is run by Leftists and minorities. The police have been intimidated to the point where they will not patrol crime rotted neighborhoods. Why because they know they have a target painted on the squad car and backs. End result? More dead Black people from Black on Black crime.

"According to Brown, police cornered Micah Johnson and negotiated with him for several hours. When talks broke down – they exchanged gunfire with the man. At that point, police sent in a remote vehicle and detonated a bomb – ultimately killing him."

There should be a memorial built for the bomb squad robot.

Well.... define "they".

It's a universal truth that actions have consequences. If you never change your motor oil, you'll eventually wreck your engine. So if we were talking about someone who never did that, then when the day finally came when their engine is destroyed, we would & could say that yes, the owner got what was coming to him. Is it something to be happy about? No. But we would still say that yes, he got what was coming to him.

IMO, the contemporary police culture is one of paranoia because police are conditioned to believe in a substantial risk that every person they encounter could be a killer. Has this paranoia resulted in saving cops lives? No doubt it has. Has his same paranoia resulted in innocent & good people being killed by cops. Yes it has, as very much seems with the recent CC case in Minnesota.

This is aside from blatant cases of police brutality. What comes to mind is the case in CA several years ago, where cops stopped to hassle a homeless guy, demanding to search his backpack. "See these fists, they're about to fuck you up" I think was one quote by one of the cops involved. The guy eventually took off, apparently in fear for his life, and he was beaten severely by the cops and died a few days later.

Cops were tried. Not guilty verdict. Hillary justice.

These recurring events have consequences, and one of them is to inspire militant minded people to do stuff like what happened in Dallas. It's nothing to celebrate, much like the motor oil example I gave (though obviously not equating the two in severity). And it also seems the cops wounded and killed were largely in solidarity with the protest message of non-violence.

But if the police attitude will continue to be that of excessive paranoia, and brutalizing cops will continue to be undisciplined and remain on police forces, then all cops as a whole, nationwide will remain in more danger because of it.

Upon further evaluation something is missing. We believe we have identified a very important missing element.

Yeah, that something that is missing is the officer's camera that should have been recording the event at traffic stop. Unfortunately, in Minnesota police don't wear body cameras.
