“Farmington, NM getting some trigger time here lately. Lots of trouble makers in Farmington. 3 !ess today”.

You speak too hastily. I live in the Durango, Colo. area north of Farmington and I just heard it was three ladies who are not trouble makers. One owns a day care center.

Yah and the drugs in these small western towns are off the hook. Have been for a long time and just getting worse.

NM seems to have a high number of officers shot in the line of duty. A quick search shows it to be the 4th most dangerous state as far as deaths are concerned. Mississippi is the most dangerous.

Today is National Peace Officers Memorial Day.

Wonder if the perp was aware of that.

“Will the shooter use the ‘arec barwin defense’?”

The shooter will be using no defense. For he is dead. The LEO’s did their job and stopped the rampage.

Civilians? Try “citizens”… cops are not military.

Farmington Police confirm 3 civilians are dead and 2 officers were injured in an active shooting incident.

So the police officers were military police?

No?

Ok then. Three people were killed in a shooting incident, two police officers were injured.

Police are civilians.

If they are not, then what are they?

How about "people"? Although I assume they were citizens of somewhere they might not have been US citizens.

And yes, the "civilian" thing annoys me too.

Police say the suspect confronted officers and was killed.

He fought the law, and the law won. Suicide by cop probably.

Thank you.

I know people think I am just nit picking but it leads to a dangerous mindset.

If the police are not civilians then they are an occupying military force. And we are under martial law.

That would not be a good thing.
