Suspect in Dallas police attack wanted to 'kill white people': chief
Reuters AP ^ | July 8, 2016 | Lisa Maria Garza

At least one sniper in Dallas killed five police officers and wounded seven more in a coordinated attack that ended when police used a bomb to kill a shooter who told them he wanted to kill white officers, authorities said Friday.

The attack came during one of several protests across the United States against the killing of two black men by police this week, the latest in a long string of killings that gave rise to the Black Lives Matter movement.

Police described Thursday night's ambush as carefully planned and executed and said they had taken three people into custody before killing the fourth after a long standoff in a downtown garage.

More anti-white violence by racist black hate groups.

When is the (p)Resident going to speak out against this?

Ruby...did anyone connect the dots.

Ruby was from chicago and before he changed his name was named Jack Rubinstein a known gangster with ties to Meyer Lansky and Bugsy Cohen. Lansky had ties to Cuba pre Castro as he controlled a casino there. Kennedy’s CIA tried to kill Castro and Castro hated Kennedy for that and for the bungled CIA invasion. Other mafia types were also involved like Giancana in Chicago and Marcello in NOLA.

Warren commission probably did not look into it as it was probably beyond the scope of their investigation!

"Bomb" prolly = flash/bang grenade.

Chief said this morning that they put an explosive device on the arm of a robot, sent it into the room, and detonated the explosive.

Lying Ryan just said that we all need to heal now.

He of course agrees with Obama that more gun control is needed.

(CNN)"A high-profile gun bill pushed by House Republicans leaders remains in limbo because a key bloc of conservatives opposes it and GOP leaders can't muster the votes to pass it.

"House Speaker Paul Ryan acknowledged that he had work to do with his own members to get consensus on his legislation, which is part of anti-terrorism package of measures he and other leaders drafted and planned to vote on this week. "

Well LOL!

That's as good a way to deal with it as a counter-sniper I guess.

That's also a Chief with stones... the press will compare him with... Daly, I think it was? who had a bomb dropped on a building and burned blocks of structures.

He said they had no choice. Apparently the negotiations weren’t going to end well.

That was Wilson Goode, black mayor of Philly.

I don’t believe the bomb portion of the article was correct

"Sniper" lets the black community off the hook - it implies the the killer is one deranged person. In fact the killer was one of millions of violent blacks - he represented the pathology of much of the black community. He was not unique - check out tweets from the black community last night.

The black community has serious problems - problems they are NOT looking at...

Blacks MUST do soul searching in light of last night's slaughter. The black community owes the rest of us some answers:

Why can't the black community get along with law enforcement? - - like EVERY other racial group in the United States?

Why can't blacks get along with whites, Hispanic ... or ANY other racial group for that matter.

What is it about black communities that make them so toxic to others?

The toxic community applies to blacks too - often the first thing a black man does when he becomes successful is move his family OUT of the black neighborhood. What does that say?

It's not just whites, Hispanics, successful blacks, Koreans or Arabs - it's everyone. No one wants to live near the 'black community'...Please explain what's going on? Why is the black community offending ... EVERYONE? ( well, everyone EXCEPT white liberal elites who feed off black anger and use it to prop up their power)

The black community needs to look inward... soul search... then they need to tell the rest of us what the hell is going on in their 'communities'...and why they can't get along with law enforcement.

From the Dallas Chief of Police:

“We saw no other option but to use our bomb robot and place a DEVICE on its extension for it to DETONATE where the suspect was. Other options would have exposed our officers to great danger,” Brown said. “He seemed lucid during negotiations.”

So, yes they used an explosive device of some kind to disable ( kill ) this perpetrator.

They didn't have a bomb, they were attempting to detonate a bomb the perp had.

Sorry, this post was in error. I'd read earlier reports they'd use a robot to detonate a bomb the perp had. Upon reading additional reports, it appears they did take him out with a bomb.

Chief said this morning that they put an explosive device on the arm of a robot

This is SOP for destroying or detonating a terrorist or perp placed bomb that is too difficult or dangerous to disarm. The remotely detonated explosive device is immediately available to the police bomb squad, as is the robot used to place it. The explosive device is not intended to be used against humans, so it appears the police adapted to the situation of an entrenched sniper who would not surrender.

It appears as there was no collateral (excluding political) to this use of an "explosive device", unlike the MOVE city block.

Not to worry, the terrorist perps had threatened the police that "bombs were all over the place" leading to the report that the police were responding to perpetrator placed bombs.

They (the police), in fact, were responding to bomb threats.

I was posting from later reports, so I knew where your post came from.

Thank you for the acknowledgment.

The Democratic Party is a cult.

Black Lives Matter, Nation of Islam, New Black Panthers, all supported by the Democratic Party, are terrorist groups.

The Democratic Party platform is cultural genocide of white people. Their street thugs and terrorists are out to kill white people. There is an unholy alliance between the far left and Islamic jihad. To the far left, all these groups including Islamic terrorists are their army to kill us in the streets. They are at war against our police, and at war against democracy.

Agreed, not hard to set up, but a “throw it now” tool either. I remember Vietnam vets telling how they would rig a time fused M18A1 in their rucks and if pursued, the last man would yank the igniter and drop his pack- and keep on hauling tail. 30-45 seconds later the claymore would go bang and the trail would get quiet....

Later, we had a similar tool- the Anti-Pursuit Munition- an AP wedge of the scatterable artillery munition (DPICM) with a timed initiation- pull the pin like a frag and toss it behind you- 20 seconds later it would deploy up to 16 very sensitive wires- any disturbance would detonate the munition. Never had to use one, but the were nice to have.
