Numerous officers not moving. Looked like pools of blood near the officers bodies.
I'm listening, too. I took it at face value. I understood that actual lawyers (defense lawyers for those already arrested?) were entering city hall. The police were being warned not to say anything to the lawyers.
Do you know what the general consensus has been about its validity? The BLM guy admitted to being hacked but the language in those Twitter messages sound just a little off/suspicious to me. Not the content, but the sentence structure and word phrasing.
I really wouldn't be surprised if it was a purposeful "leak," with the purpose of agitation. Then when people get good and paranoid about the "martial law," it could be used against whoever started screaming "conspiracy." You know, when events such as Dallas shootings start happening.
News stating gunman holed up in “highrise.”
I thought it was a parking garage.
Thought- hard to get any type of high clearance vehicle into a parking garage, and no vehicle into a living space.
News now reporting that he is holed up in a school building. Gunman could succumb (bleed out) to wounds.
DPD Chief clarified 4 officers killed, revising down from 5.
Guessing- Police officers seen taking bags of groceries into the hospital for family, friends and coworkers, holding vigil in waiting rooms. Reflecting- most of us have at one time or another held a vigil at a hospital for someone we loved.
Imagine this scene? Heartbreaking.
Thanks, good to know...Tweet made it sound pretty bad.
True, that.
There have been several reports in recent weeks of people being stopped at the border who are not Mexicans and not Hispanic.
IIRC, Donald Trump has mentioned this in his stump speech.
“That’s true of some blacks, bray, but not all. Please don’t paint us all with the same brush.”
That’s true. I’m white and I grew up in a small town in NW Alabama in the 70’s and 80’s.
Many Non-Southerners are incredibly ignorant and bigoted against Southerners. Even a few on FR, unfortunately. They would be surprised to know that in my town Blacks and Whites got along very well with no problems.
In fact, the lady I refer to as my “second Mother” was Black. She would babysit my older sister and I and she would do some cooking and cleaning. We loved her and considered her a member of the family. She even was the first to carry me inside our home when I came home from the hospital after my birth. Sadly, we lost her this past September when she went home to Heaven.
My point is, when I was growing up in the late 70’s and 80’s, we never thought about race. I have black friends from my town whom I still converse with on Facebook. One of them is a female veteran who has no use for the race baiters. A few months ago she posted an epic rant against them on Facebook; it was glorious:) She doesn’t suffer fools gladly and states her opinion.
It’s so discouraging to see the insanity that has become our country. I certainly don’t regard all Blacks as violent. There are idiots and racists in all races. I want to let you and the other Black posters on FR know that if I post something angry against BLM or certain agitators (hello, obama) I’m not disparaging all blacks.
My family background is Russian and Irish so I have a temper:) Sometimes in situations like tonight, I speak very bluntly and harshly. When I do that, please understand that it’s not against you or an average black person. It’s against the idiots such as the ones who are posting racist, violent tweets against whites.
I’m sorry for the long winded, awkward post. I wanted to let you know that I enjoy your posts on FR and don’t be discouraged by another Freeper.
Living and working right outside Fort Knox, I have a lot of friends and coworkers who came from some of the roughest neighborhoods in the country.
Actually, the interesting thing is that this one isn’t downtown. This one’s a few miles away... in the middle of an honest to god swamp.
This time there’s a good reason for them to show up - the shootings are taking place around not one but two Federal court buildings and there were still personnel in them.
“...a tweet from a BLM DALLAS person calling on ISIS to help, and urging others to do the same.”
BLM needs to be declared a terrorist organization. Now.
I know! I read that and thought, “wait a minute”
Just reporting 5th officer has died....
I wonder if the "operation" was the arrival of the lawyers.
Fox4 reporting that a 5th officer has passed. 4 DPD, 1 DART
Tanner did it in an old bronco full size and Adam did it in a Chevy tracker if I recall..
Rutledge tried in a 90s 4 runner, but rolled it.
One of the last Top Gear america shows ;)
These test runs seem to get bigger each time.
Plenty of OTMs over the southern border, for years. And now with all the “Syrian” “refugees” pouring in; actually vast numbers of mohammedans legally pouring in. Trojan horse doesn’t even describe it.
Folks....until Obama, Clinton, the entire Democrat Party is totally destroyed, politically, this mayhem, murder and terrorism will continue, unabated!!! Obama?Clinton, etc,. have chained the African-American community into permanent poverty and slave plantation mentality, for the sole purpose to destroy the American Republic. How’s that Kenyan, POTUS, Obama “Hope & Change” working out for you America? GO DONALD J. TRUMP.....Make America Great, Once Again!!! Onward to complete POTUS victory in November, 2016.
I dunno. 5 or 10 minutes expired about 20 minutes ago
or Americans rise up and reclaim their country by force.
I hope it does not come to that.
Definitely!
The parking garage in question IS a high rise. It’s 16+ stories tall.
