Dallas Police Ambushed by Snipers
A protest in Dallas for the two people killed by police two days, ended up with police being gunned down by 2 snipers at elevated positions, ambushed and engaged and shot 10 police, at least 3 officers are confirmed dead.
The officers were protecting the protestors while being gunned down by two faceless cowards.
Let me think about this.
Here in the area where I live..........
Jose Campos Torres. Intentionally murdered by police. Multiple officers involved. Minimal prosecution.
Randall Webster murdered by police. Multiple officers involved. Minimal prosecution.
Byron Gillium. Murdered by police. No prosecution.
Ida Delaney. Murdered by police. Minimal prosecution.
These were a few examples of what has been going on for years here and across the country. Not all were black. The pattern is the same. When you look at the Freddie Gray case no convictions so far. I bet if me and 5 buddies restrained someone and loaded them up in the back of a van healthy and they got to their destination with a deadly spinal injury these same investigators and jurors could find someone at fault.
What do you expect?
How much of this would we take from a foreign government before we revolted and went to war with them?
At what point do the American people force these officers to follow the laws they are charged with enforcing?
Murdering these officers was wrong as anything else mentioned in this post but where are people expected to draw the line?
What else was going to force progress when peaceful means has proven to be a waste of time?
It is really hard to ignore what pushed these people to this extreme.
The solution. Hold these officers to a higher standard than the average citizen rather than a lower standard. If the public sees they are held accountable they will not revolt. If the officers know that breaking the public's trust will result in serious consequences the blue culture will change.

Oh so we're going to play this game. Okie dokie, I'll play. Blacks commit over 50% of the murders in this country despite making up less than 15% of the population.
You see here in the area where *I* live..well, just take a quick guess how many murders go unsolved? Also take a quick guess as to how many children are murdered. Compare that with the number of kids cops murder.
Soo to quote you..what did you expect? It's really hard to ignore all this crime committed by this race, especially as to how it compares to the amount of crime others commit in this country.
The solution: hold ALL people to this standard of Black Lives Matter and not just the white cops or white people in general.

Would you classify the gunning down of white kids with plastic toy guns as murders, too?
Is the toy gun a gun that actually looks realistic once the orange safety tip is removed?
Also I never said cops have never been involved in the death of a child. Hell I actually posted a topic about a recent incident of this and yep the kid involved was white. Or white or hispanic, but he wasn't black.
Point is, in Englewood we've already had 4 kids shot this week. That is just one part of Chicago. We have had children murdered just because a gang banger is too dumb to aim properly. We've had children murdered on purpose because their father was in a gang.

I love your choice of words. " number of kids cops murder". Kinda says it all.
