Two snipers shoot 11 police officers and leave bombs all over the place during Dallas protests

Two snipers have shot 11 police officers - killing at least four - and may have planted a bomb in downtown Dallas.

The two gunmen opened fire from 'elevated positions', picking off officers 'ambush style' as they manned a protest over the deaths of two black men, police chief David Brown said.

A gruesome video shows a heroic policeman taking on one of gunmen, but being gunned down by the shooter before being shot again execution-style, from point-blank range.

Both suspects have been caught and taken into custody, with one detained following a shootout with police.

As they were detained, they are said to have told officers: 'The end is coming... and there are bombs all over the place.'

Officers found a suspicious package near where one of the gunmen was caught and a bomb squad are dealing with it.

Police said two people are being questioned after they were spotted speeding away from the scene of the shooting in a black Mercedes. An officer saw one of the pair hurriedly putting a camouflage bag in the back of the car before driving off 'at a high rate of speed'.

Another man, named as Mark Hughes, was pictured walking through Dallas with what appeared to be an assault rifle. He turned himself into police after cops made a public appeal and his family said he was an innocent bystander.

Four police officers have died and as many as three others are in a critical condition. A member of the public was also shot.

'Our worst nightmare has happened,' Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings said. 'It is a heartbreaking moment for the city of Dallas.'

My thoughts, also. When is the last time you saw a black woman not overreact, when even the smallest thing happens?
They usually scream, shake, cry, and vibrate viciously, and that’s just when a child drops a pack of gum on the floor at WalMart. This one just had a 9MM, or .40 fired 4 times in her left ear, and she’s narrating a documentary? Fishy.

The story is still developing, but one thing’s for sure, those attackers appeared organized and trained.

From August 2014:

“...The members of ISIS claim that they are at “war with America” and at “war with the West.” So far, that doesn’t seem to have come to fruition. Although Texas Governor Rick Perry said it is a “real possibility” that members of the terrorist group could have snuck through the nation’s southern border, it would be easier to bring the war to America by starting from within.”

Um, what? The sniper-firing on the officers took place at a rally protesting the two blacks thugs’ getting killed. I’m no BLM supporters in any way, but what you’re suggesting is a bit illogical, time-wise.

I’m not well traveled and dont know what the teens and 20 somethings in the rest of the country are like.

I am and I can tell you that all across the gulf coast from Texas to the Florida panhandle and all across 'flyover' country there are still MANY millions of red-blooded America-loving teens and 20-somethings that are strong, able and have plenty of fight in them!

FACT!

p.s. ...and most were raised around guns.

Even on LIBERAL radio! I was listening to NPR and they were discussing a 7-11 with a broken window from the shooting. They said a crowd started looting liquor and beer and that the police showed up and stood shoulder to shoulder to protect the store. Then a crowd (of unnamed race) gathered and began taunting and baiting the police. They made a few apologetic remarks about how “understandably tensions were high” or something to that effect and quickly moved on.

But the fact that they reported on this at all is amazing.

Votes won’t matter. Just like the FBI investigation didn’t matter. The fix is in and you can take that to the bank.

What I'm alleging is that someone planned this attack OTHER than Micha and BLM leaders are linked to it and had advanced knowledge of it.

This term "PEACEFUL" has been all over the news and Internet as the description of last night's protest PRIOR TO the attack. I thought this was odd, given that so many BLM'ers were saying it, BUT NOT PRIOR TO THIS PARTICULAR PROTEST had I heard it.

I think use of this term was PsyOps designed to make the cop killings even MORE shocking and surprising than it already would have been. The term 'peaceful' lulled people into calm only to be more emotionally stunned when the shooting started. THIS WAS BY DESIGN AND PART OF THE MEDIA NARRATIVE FALSE FLAG.

We are being PLAYED, not to mention the EMBARRASSING Comey/Clinton hearing was completely WIPED from the news cycle!!!

Texas Gov has handed the investigation over to the FBI. Any suspects wouldn’t stand a chance of being executed now.

Just found out that the BLM rally route had been publicized with enough time for the shooter to get there and scout out the place. .
