People wouldn't be killed by cops of they would just do what the hell they are asked. It's that simple. Apparently those who are getting killed are just the dumbest of the dumb. I have no pity for them. I do have pity for the cops who put their lives in the line for us and this is how they are treated. It's unbelievable.

Rapid shots were fired 40-60 rounds can be heard on videos posted on Twitter and Facebook. This is seriously an ambush on law enforcement. BLM sure they want to go that route? Didn't work out so hot in the late 60s for the Panthers. Certainly not for Malcolm X. Think it over.

Girls are screaming after shots rang out. Keep in mind, they were chanting Don't Shoot with their hands in the air. Total Pandemonium. People need to start thinking for a change. All for free speech but the chanting is incendiary.

Do you think BLM could pull of such a coordinated event in downtown Dallas with full body armor and tactical gear? Something smells like the same crap criminal elements within our government will do to further an agenda. There are power hungry individuals who want nothing more than the destruction of our freedoms and well...power.

This is just the response the wicked forces at play are looking for. You are silly for believing that BLM can pull off a tactical assault in downtown Dallas with full body armor and perfectly placed snipers in the same fish bowl area they took out Kennedy? Please there are evil power hungry people furthering the civil unrest agenda. Order out of chaos buddy. Please educate yourself, this is what they are counting on to keep us distracted and at each other's throats.
These wicked wealthy scum can't stand our freedom and want their new world order, which is simply an old world order of serfdom and slavery. Any student of history can see what's happening, but you have to wrap your head around the fact these sickos have 100 's of year plans. Order out of chaos.

Obama is a deranged evil beast. The devil's spawn. Blacks make me sick. Most are a bad evil wicked race because they still overwhelmingly support him and anyone who supports him is the worst of the worst. They can pretend to be God fearing Christians but the fact is most are going straight to hell and will spend eternity burning in the fires. They can fool themselves but they can't fool God nor real Christians.

Philando Castile, in a carry state, informed the officer he had a gun and was shot while reaching for his wallet. Doesn't fit with the"just comply" narrative, does it?

An eyewitness on fox news said that the shooters shot once, and there was a period, before they started firing rapidly. [So the murderous fiends scattered the crowd so that they would only be murdering police officers.]

Sad, sad event. Prayers for deceased officers and families; speedy recovery to wounded. Totally unjustified. Eventually we'll learn more specifics.

Main purpose in commenting is to critique lack of coverage overnight.
Caught end of WBOC 11 pm news to catch the weather forecast snippet; they briefly mentioned the developing situation. Slept fitfully due to heat; awoke about 3 am and saw family member had a note posted about Dallas. Turned on TV to get updated. ABC on WMDT was following it with their overnight crew. CBS and WBOC were a void despite initial word being in their hands at 11:30 pm. WBOC cut-ins were obviously recorded before 11 pm news crew went home. The same is true for the CBS national coverage between 3 am and 4:30 am. They spent their time on Minnesota and Louisiana situations, on Obama's statement from Poland about those events and on an artist's career. And in lieu of many commercials they splashed love about their great news coverage.

In contrast, SBYNews, Drudge, Instapundit and others had info and periodic updates about the Dallas event from its start to present.

CBS gets an 'F'. WBOC gets 'D-' recognizing their sparser resources.

Just saying,

They misjudged the fact that people are going to go down fighting.
I am tired of all the cops killing citizens for no reason.

2:27 is correct. BLM is nothing more than a large herd of useful idiots. They do not have enough collective sense between them all to pull off something like this. This is your government at work. They are desperate to do whatever it takes to create anarchy so they can declare martial law, and it WILL happen before the November election. The evil forces (D and R alike) at work here cannot let the people vote for real change. Get ready for a rough ride, it's about to get real nasty.

To the families of all the officers who lost their life last night, please know that there are people in this country who do care and are offering their heartfelt condolences to you. So very, very sorry this had to happen to the officers out there protecting us day in and day out without as much as a thank you. I thank every last one of you. Yours is not an easy job knowing you are doing your best and sometimes your best is not good enough. There are crazies in this United States and more and more of them every day so please be careful and stay safe when you go out and do your job. I pray for all of you, all the time.

False flag as usual... The reason why I say this is because out of all of the videos I have seen on this situation, the video I saw where supposedly it all started, one cop ran up to shoot the suspect, and you can see the flashes of the muzzle and the smoke and light when the bullets hit the ground, and you see the gunman run up to the cop which is like 5 to 10 feet away, run behind the cop while he was taking cover and shot him 3 times, the first shot or two didn't hit the cop and the guy was behind the cop no more than 2 feet away, with a riffle or shotgun, the cop should have been hit... The cop didn't drop until the third shot...

I don't buy that you have 5 cops dead and 6 wounded and you can't hit a cop from 2 feet away?

Waking up to this is a coordinated attack. Sounds familiar. BLM is being used to provide soft targets. People need to wake up and realize they're being used! Suspect wanted to kill white officers. Who the hell started this attack on America and who has the most to gain from it. Funny how people aren't connecting dots. We aren't talking about Killery getting away with murder yesterday! Wake up people you're being played like cheap pianos.

It's going to get to the point where police are not going to protect the people across the country. Look at Chicago and how police don't rush to certain sections of town when murders occur. It has gotten so bad even Bill O'Reilly has been yammering on about it! You're putting yourselves in danger every time you start protesting or demonstrating for one cause or another. You provide bad people a way to folly with your good intent. People need to sit down and keep calm. The divisive element in this country will be gone come January if we keep our cools!

853 your comment makes no sense at all. You're another puppet. Here's some reason for your coffee. If you think Obama is not at least 55% a part of this problem, you're failing to see the big picture. His words since re-election - his all out WAR against law enforcement has been criminal. Stop being a minion with no logic. You have a brain, start using it. Emotions has no place right now if you want to stay in a free country. This place continues to go south, truth is, there's no place on earth left to go. No refuge. No idiot safe space. We're the last free country and if we allow others to dictate our will for us, we're done. Over. There will be no right to free speech. No right to bear arms. No rights at all. You will become enslaved.

Hint: If the UK citizens voted to get out of the EU slave market, shouldn't us smart Americans desire the same?

Broken tail light my foot. That's just what the officer told him. Word is he had just arm robbed a store and was stopped because of a BOLO. Of course the cop isn't going to tell him he's the suspect- too dangerous. There is video footage of the robbery. Cop told him to keep his hands up and according to the girl friend he went to his pocket to get his license. Believe anything out of her mouth and you are a fool.

7:55 that's exactly what blacks need to learn. A cop shoots a black and they automatically assume it's the cops fault and will go so far as to lie about the person shot! They make a criminal out to be a saint. It's a sin how they act. As long as the person's black they refuse to look at their character. Most are like this and it's disgraceful and a sin! If racism actually does exist and I'm doubtful it is because of their own actions and their refusal to be honest and accept that their is bad in their race. They really do need God and I mean in a real way.

Here here 11:18. Brilliant.

Once again, I assert, we have to get all the evidence. People marching throughout the country are likened to Fergusson. They don't have the facts yet they get their Irish up because of this so-called social justice. I'm thinking if the guy just robbed a store, this explains why the police officer had a gun trained on him through a sunroof. In all my years, I've never seen a police officer just pull his weapon without cause.

People watch too many movies and not enough reading! You sacrifice common sense for sensationalism to the point of nauseum. Use your BRAINS! Even the kids on CSI or Criminal Minds don't draw their weapons without cause!

Now, not being in law enforcement, I am no expert on their rules of engagement; however, working in a complimentary industry to law enforcement, I can say, those are pretty forward actions for a taillight citation. Something occurred before to warrant such a response.

It's time people stopped letting their emotions cloud their judgment and good common sense.

Actually the armed robbery was 4 days before and 4 blocks from the shooting. If you look at his death photo you can clearly see he was the armed robber. The Last Refuge has the photos. Not only that the eyeglasses the robber is wearing are exactly like ones the dead guy is wearing in a picture on his FB page.

Now they are saying state law won't allow them to release info on permit holders. If the guy couldn't be bothered keeping up with his drivers license do you really believe he had permit to carry a gun. Not only do his glasses he wears on FB match those of the robbery suspect so do his shoes in another photo.

10:34 They had every right to be out there protesting. Blacks and Whites receive very different treatment by the police. This is a very old problem that is just now being exposed thanks to technology.
The protest and the shooting had nothing to do with each other. Sure the timing made it convenient but a shooter intent on killing cops could find other places to do so. Just like most cops are good people, most people at that protest are good people, and only one in that protest came with the intent to kill.
The police are doing a very hard job. They are under paid and under appreciated. Most of them are good people and only a handful go out to intimidate and harm. So just like we demand of Muslims and just like we demand in inner cities and just like we demand in airports, if you see something say something. If you are a police officer and you know someone on your force who uses excessive force or racist language, say something. Otherwise there may end up being a protest in your town too.

HUH 10:26????? The protest and the murder of the officers had everything to do with each other. Get out of the bubble you are in. They chant death to cops at these protests. And if you are a reasonable person you don't even call them protests. They are riots. They chant threats to cops, they shut down highways and streets, they climb all over vehicles, they spray paint cop cars and other vehicles. Go online and view YouTube videos of these so called peaceful protests. If they are black america's idea of being peaceful then it leaves no doubt why the inner cities are war zones. NO wonder their young are blowing each others brains out.

The ironic thing is the Micah Johnson the shooter hated whites. Wanted to kill white cops. Yet this black man was charged with sexually harassing white women while in the National Guard. Hellllllllllllo is this not typical of these confused racist. I hate whitey but I love their women. Heck when nobody's looking I wrap my self in a Confederate flag and dance around whistling Dixie. F'ing demented bastard.

I hate to say it we might need a war to thin the herd of this sub culture. The fact is most educated people get along. People with morals and common sense do not care the color of skin.

I do know I will not stand idly by while thugs kill police or any race of people. They are a cancer that should be dissected from America.

Sigh. The sheriff said he never applied for a permit at their office. They never said he did not have a permit, just that they didn't issue him a permit. They did say he could have applied elsewhere and gotten a permit, which is what he did.
