“yup. if shots were fired they must have come from an officers gun.”

I heard reported that there were five or six shots fired in rapid order. This suggests to me that the woman perp was using one of those assault revolvers.....

thank you for making my point of the other day.

Someone wants an event and ALWAYS gets an event, even if small/not too large.

Someone wants an October Revolution to call his own.

So, words were exchanged and a car chase ensued? The pit maneuver pushed the car into the WH gat on one side?

Who exactly had weapons and how was said LEO injured? In the wreck?

1st the bus wreck. Now this.

"Well, all I've got to say is how about how long and how deep real-America has had to "shelter-in-place" since this half black, full Muslim, affirmative action, Narcissistic megalomaniac has been in office?"

Race, ethnicity or color, has nothing to do with the contempt I hold for the POS occupying the office of the POTUS. I would hope that fellow FReepers of good will and intent would judge people by their character and not consider ill-fabricated traits such as race in their calculus of individuals.

The baby in the passenger seat. Doesn't look like Obama's police shot her, too.

I wonder if America survives October?

I don't know, but a famous guy recently told me, hey enjoy life, it could end anytime. Actually, come to think of it, I believe it was you. -:)

Obama’s police blew away her mom because she wanted to talk to him about her WIC checks and they refused.

A WOMAN tried to ram the barricade.
That was most unusual.
Maybe she was high, drunk, drugged or just plain stupid.

Or, perhaps all four.

Watch out for Obama's version of The Great Sedition Trial of 1944

A version of this is very likely IMO.

". . . one of the blackest marks on the record of American jurisprudence. In the legal world, none can recall a case where so many Americans were brought to trial for political persecution and were so arrogantly denied the rights [guaranteed] an American citizen under the Constitution.”

The Administration is eying every incident as something they can accuse and put "teabaggers" on trial -- the Administration's lies will be backed by Obama's MSM, universities, entertainment industry, civil rights industry . . . .

Some other post said a police maneuver ramming her car caused it to hit the white house gate.

The child shown on TV was not white, unless my eyes are bad. Which I have doubts.
Also the two cop cars that I saw damaged were nose to tail re-ender(how Obamaian)!

Fox has been showing footage from Alhurra Television of a black Lexus trying to ram the gate; it takes off, stopped for a moment by officers then speeds off and goes around traffic circle etc.
