DALLAS - (AP) -- The Latest on the shooting of police officers in Dallas (all times local):
5 P.M.
The police department in the Gulf Coast town of Waveland, Mississippi, is among those on alert after receiving what authorities there deem credible threats against officers.
Police Chief David Allen told The Sun Herald newspaper (http://bit.ly/29zawdQ) the threats had come via phone and social media and involved possible gunfire attacks Saturday night and Sunday. Extra police were to be on duty during the weekend....

I think it is called the early stage of WW3!
Mogadishu on the Mississippi madness....... damn.
Waveland MS ?
Are there any blacks there ?
Maybe Bay St Loiuis
Waveland was completely destroyed by Katrina which made land fall there with a 22 ft wall of water .
It’s a small beach town that is 80 % white .
This sounds like a hoax
Ping to more threats. .
War Drums Along the Bayous.
Sorry Katrina landed with a 26 foot wall of water .
Unreal.
The town is literally just street after street of empty slaps .
Camille made land fall there too .
Wave land is 86 % white and the town never came back after Katrina .
I live nearby, and yes, there are plenty of blacks there.
Bay St. Louis is one street away and there are plenty there too. The percentages on wiki don’t seem correct, but it doesn’t take many to cause major problems.
Camille went in at Pass Christian. Katrina, I believe went in around Pearlington on the east branch of the Pearl River near the Stennis NASA site. In any case, New Orleans dodged a bullet both times. Had either of them moved 30-40 miles west there would be no NOLA today. But, let’s not argue. LOL! Anyone that has never dealt with hurricanes just don’t know. Now, back to the cops. How big can the Waveland (which does go north and past Hwy 90) PD be anyway.
I would be more likely to suspect agitators from Louisiana coming over and making problems. In nearby Bama, there was a demonstration in Mobile last night, and there were rumors of plans to shut down the tunnel. Instead, the protesters marched and aired their grievances and ended with prayer. Then they went home. It is difficult to agitate successfully in communities where black, white, Latino, Asian have strong faith in God. That is not to say there aren’t bad apples that attempt to cause problems.
Well, most of the time the cops are in their vehicles or at the station house. This tactic of phoning/messaging in threats ensures plenty of targets wandering the streets.
It took major hits both times .
But poor Waveland.
Wave land is 6000 people now and the Empty lots with just slaps is very sad.
Pass Christian has bounced back nicely .
Used to live at Wavelad Ave at the RR tracks.
Roger that. We visited a few years after. Pretty sad.
Oh know that area.
We enjoyed the dog friendly beach area .
