Because they are most likely minorities and not a white middle aged Christan male, that would have been the first thing CNN would have said!

Local link. Warning dead perp in photo

There was a two man car ...LA County Sheriff's that pulled over these Mexicans in a van about 15 years ago...One Mexican exits the vehicle and unloads a rifle clip on the black and white...Striking one deputy in the head...He actually survived, but screwed him up good for life.

They eventually caught the son of bitch deep in Mexico....After surveillance of the cockroach caught him dancing in some tacky Mexican dive....

In any event, this is brutal....Two dead cops, two wounded...The bad guys dying is not a good trade

Agreed, there is a reason cops wear guns. When I was running the highways,, I never, EVER, walked up to a car w/o my hand on the sidearm. It probable happened so quick, no chance to respond. Normal traffic stops are the most dangerous, if you get complacent, your dead.

Next time you get pulled over for speeding,, please cut the cop some slack for being careful.

Wrong...

Two dead suspects can be seen...Look to the left rear of the suspect vehicle

My brother is a medic at le bonheur and he called them neo-nazis with an ar-15. Police chief’s son died. Terrible.

[packrat35]

Yea but one is clearly seen is what I meant.

[MestaMachine]

The son of the police chief was shot in the BACK of the head at point blank. Still no ID on the perps. Been watching for this since it started. White van, orange roof, with Ohio plates.

Thanks for the link BTW. ..

Hopefully, this is one of the wounded.

[dragnet2]

Thanks...

I’m interested to see who the shooters are....Ping me when ya find out.

[trapped_in_LA]

Whoever they were they were pretty good shots, 4 cops before they were taken out? Must be Zetas or some other paramilitary trained people for that kind of kill ratio.

[presently no screen name]

Riddles? Two cops are killed protecting TN citizens - and that’s not serious to you? You’re more interested in responses? Shows were your head is at.

[2aberro]

Thanks for the link to the dead perp's. Strange they would be driving a van w/o a license plate knowing they would be stopped. Suicide by cop?

Nice under stress group above the R.R. taillight.

[Coldwater Creek]

That's one of the stupidest remark ever, certainly uncalled for at this time.

[Coldwater Creek]

They are DEAD. We don’t mess around in this part of the country.

[MestaMachine]

There were plates on the van at the first stop. Must have removed them when they went into the Walmart parking lot.

[Coldwater Creek]

Our local (Memphis) news is now saying that the van was registered to a church in Ohio, and the shooters were thought to be part of a white supremacist group.

Was just reading some of the ‘comments’ on the link.

WTF is WRONG with people?

The comment that Really got to me is one where this Bastard says that if HE were writing the article about this .. He wouldn’t put the Race in his article because .. There is no reason to!!!!

F-ing Pricks!

What Does It Matter .. No Reason To?

I have Absolutely ‘No Hope’ for this country any longer!

[jdfromny]

“2 Police....” what the heck kind of illiterate headline is that?

[dragnet2]

Looks like entry auto fire on the right rear of the suspect vehicle and rear window....Must of been a good response to that walmart.....They area was probably saturated with LEOs when the call came out regarding the second shooting at Chinamart.
