Four Lakewood Police Officers murdered on Sunday may have been the target of gangs on the east side of Tacoma. Previous attacks on officers have been reported.
On Sunday, Nov. 29, four Lakewood officers were gunned down in a coffee shop ambush before the start of their shift in Parkland. There are no suspects in custody.
The police have recently started a crack down on Mexican gangs in the state. In July 2009, after the gang crackdown was announced.
On July 30, 2009 a Lakewood police officer's personal car was spray painted with gang tags and set on fire, according to the News Tribune.
The car was parked at the officer's house and was painted with gang tags, then set on fire about 10:45 p.m. Gang tags were also spray painted on the officer's driveway. The officer was in his home at the time, but no injuries were reported by Lakewood Police. His police car was parked next to his personal car and suffered minor heat damage.
The officer had spray painted over gang graffiti in his neighborhood, according to Lakewood Assistant Police Chief Mike Zaro. He did not rule out that it could have been a random act of vandalism after someone spotted a police car parked in the driveway.
Mexican gangs are causing havoc in the Tacoma-Yakima area of Washington with methamphetamine being the drug of choice for the gang. They are moving into Native American territories where a police presence is scant.
Finish the fence and deport all illegals.
Hendricks is said in most of the articles not to have been in a gang. But they always say that when they are killed. They were good kids, trying to get out of the gang life, had managed to accrue six credits in community college over the last five terms, etc.
Hmmm. That sounds like the town where the assassination took place had at least one very active gang 'set'.
Wow, if this is Gang related then it is war.
Death and prison are not deterrents for lawless gang members.
Ditto.
I heard about that from our Command Sergeant Major. I think that happened in Tacoma.
[maybe another wannabe lone jihadist.???]
Thanks bitt. Think that’s the first thought we have anymore when bad things happen. The police won’t give up on this one, the killer will be tracked down no matter how long it takes.
Me too! Retalation for a woman police officer taking down a muslim brother at FT Hood. I don’t think that this happened so close to another military post is an accident!
Outrageous! PC gets us everywhere!

I would never do that now.
” 17 Community Laison Officers” - that will do the job. rolls eyes.
Parkland, Spanaway, Puyallup, Lakewood, East Tacoma. All hotzones of gang activity, and also the home of some of the lowest of the low crack head trailer trash scum you can find.
Because the largest, best-equipped, best-financed street gang in America is the cops. Federal, state, county, city, whatever - none of them have any interest in being what used to be known as a "Peace Officer".
Yeah well, we'll see.
In Philly the perps would be dead already. New York, too.
Anyone know of a way to decipher gang tags? In the last two years my area south of Renton, WA has been bombarded by tags. PBS is the most common.

here is the link to the 1989 Tacoma shootout between Army Rangers and a local gang.
I doubt the perp was a muslim. A muslim would be just as likely to shoot the baristas and other customers at the coffeeshop, but this killer was only after the cops. However there is one thing I can guarantee: the killer did not vote for John McCain in 2008.
I would like to see the after action report on that engagement. Do you have any more information?
Yeah, "the bitch set me up".
