They mentioned that it's believed 3 are dead in that live stream I posted. That's also where I heard that 10 had been shot, but who knows at this stage

cops killed a black guy

KERSPLAT!

The World is so ****ed up.

conditioned games

Such a waste of life. America is getting worse, printing currency like crazy to reinflate popped bubbles, elite controlled media focusing on black deaths to divide the nation even though more white people are killed by cops and attention moved away from the real crooks like Goldman Sachs JP Morgan the Rothschild Rockerfella families while the American middle class are stripped of their wealth.

FalconGirl

World's gone mad! Think I've said that every day the past week over various incidents.

A gun man kills armed police men in two seperate incidents. Proof as ever that guns don't prevent gun deaths. Less guns prevents gun deaths.

Winterlong

You could almost become anesthetised to all these killings given how common they are becoming. And that is a sad thing.

No surprise if BLM are happy to included marchers chanting "What do we want? Dead cops. When do we want it? Now!"

Talk about counter productive, if there's one guaranteed outcome from displays like this it's edgy cops more likely to shoot first and ask questions later. In other words, more dead black people.

KERSPLAT!

Sky news and local media reporting 3 officers shot and feared dead

niallo27

Who are the stupid ***** giving up their lives to shoot these cops. At least the IS lads think they are getting a load of virgins.

macnug

At least two dead according to fox, the mayor said 3 were shot.

Winterlong

From cnn

Kip Holden, the mayor-president of East Baton Rouge Parish, said authorities were still trying to get a handle on the situation, but added, "The count is three officers dead possibly."
The victims may include police officers and sheriff's deputies.
"There is still an active scene. They are investigating," he said. "Right now we are trying to get our arms around everything."
The shooter is believed to be down as well, Holden said.
"Everything is moving fast and I have not been able to verify everything," he said.

Black Lives Matter & the liberal SJW sympathisers are clearly responsible for this. Donald J. Trump will cruise into the White House if this sort of thing starts happening more often.

BLM are just the mob Trump needs to stand a chance.

If he does win, I'm sure they will be thanked in his inauguration speech.

I know it sounds insane, but TRUMP might be just what they need.. then after he's finished someone can come in and run the place properly.. Trump might be the RESET button they require as a society.

While there is a huge amount of gun crime in the US, really, proportionally it's not as bad as people make out. The problem is you've an ever so slightly higher proportion of nutjobs, heavily armed an a population over 2/3rds the size of Europe and a very, very active media.

Because criminals breaking the law by murdering, will now stop because they're breaking another one :rolleyes:

Why do people insist this? Why do they fight tooth and nail against gun rights then top it off with 'less people will die'.

First off, let's just put gun violence into perspective.
In 2014, Eleven Thousand were killed by guns.
In a country of 320 million, and with more guns than people.

It's not that much tbh.
Let's look at other causes of death that year:

Heart disease killed 611 thousand. #BanHighCapacityHeartAttacks :rolleyes:
Cancer killed 584 thousand. #BanAssaultTumors...
Chronic lower respiratory diseases killed 150 thousand.
Accidents killed 130 thousand.
Stroke killed 128 thousand.
Alzheimer's disease killed 84 thousand.
Diabetes killed 75 thousand.
Influenza and Pneumonia killed 57 thousand.
Kidney diseases killed 47 thousand.
Suicides topped 41 thousand.
Road fatalities were 36 thousand.

Gun deaths account for **** all in comparison but ooooooooh BOY are they a handy scapegoat/political points scoring platform...

Remove guns from law abiding people in that mad house across the water, and I absolutely guarantee gun deaths will go up...
Mass shootings are but a drop in the ocean of general gun death causes.

Now if it were down to me, I'd make bullets reeeeealy bloody expensive. Like five hundred dollars each. That way you really really need a good excuse to empty a magazine..

Lastly, things are happening lately that prove a weapon is anything but important or necessary to kill many. Something I've always believed too, tbh.

Odds on AR-15 used?

With all them deaths why do people within american politics become so fixated on the very few who have been killed in the last couple of years by "islamic extremism"

RobertKK

Hard being a police officer in the US seeing your colleagues being killed and injured.

There can be no excuse over what happened to some black people, or any excuse when it comes to shooting police officers.
Two wrongs never made anything right.

disagree with you there sorry it factually reduces all crime incl violent

http://defendandcarry.com/harvard-study-shocks-banning-firearms-increases-crime-not-just-in-u-s/

“Down in Australia, gun murders increased by about 19 percent and armed robberies increased by about 69 percent after a gun ban was instituted. 13 The city of Chicago has some of the strictest gun laws in the United States. So has this reduced crime? The murder rate in Chicago was about 17 percent higher in 2012 than it was in 2011, and Chicago is now considered to be “the deadliest global city,” 14 After the city of Kennesaw, Georgia passed a law requiring every home to have a gun, the crime rate dropped by more than 50 percent over the course of the next 23 years and there was an 89 percent decline in burglaries.”
“Despite the very strict ban on guns in the UK, the overall rate of violent crime in the UK is about 4 times higher than it is in the United States. 7 In one recent year, there were 2,034 violent crimes per 100,000 people in the UK. 8In the United States, there were only 466 violent crimes per 100,000 people during that same year. The UK has approximately 125 percent more rape victims per 100,000 people each year than the United States does. The UK has approximately 133 percent more assault victims per 100,000 people each year than the United States does. UK has the fourth highest burglary rate in the EU. The UK has the second highest overall crime rate in the EU.”

true

The worst top three school shootings occurred in Western Europe; in Erfurt (Germany), Dunblane (Scotland) and Winnenden (Germany). Columbine was number four.
““A study by the Media Research Center concluded media coverage of firearms is overwhelmingly biased. In a recent period, “television networks collectively aired 514 anti-gun stories, to a mere 46 that were pro-firearm, a ratio of more than 11-to-1 against firearms.””

“Almost every mass shooting that has occurred in the United States since 1950 has taken place in a state with strict gun control laws. With just one exception, every public mass shooting in the USA since at least 1950 has taken place where citizens are banned from carrying guns.

The United States is Number 1 in the world in gun ownership, and yet it is only 28th in the world in gun murders per 100,000 people. Overall, guns in the United States are used 80 times more often to prevent crime than they are to take lives.”

Now BBC twitting at least 4 shot dead

So? I'd much rather be hit with a military round from an AR 15 than a hunting round from a sport semi automatic rifle.

Meh America is getting worse in some ways, but no need to go full retard on the hysteria either. The world is actually safer than it was 20 or 30 years ago. In Europe anyway. It's just these days with social media and rolling news egging this shíte on when it does happen it feels more real and it also seems people are much more prone to hysterics of panic these days too. Until the next Facebook feed takes their hysteria attention anyway. EG without going to google, name the dead kid washed up on a Greek beach. You know, the one that had all the Facebook, twitter feels, handwringing and crocodile tears going on. Can you name him? The western world seems to have the attention span and the emotional range of 12 year old girls.

Anyway there'll be another "horror" along to distract us in due course. Get those facebook flag overlays ready…


PS it really is beyond a pain in the sphincter we can't have pics in AH. But the link below is a graph of terror attacks in Europe over the last few decades. We're safer today. Yep.

well it is the states best selling semi-auto platform , home defense and hunting rifle so your probably correct in your guess.:)
it does not meet any of the BS 'assault rifle definition' apart from it being black and scary looking to some sheeple of the clinton demo-tard variety :rolleyes:
