    Dallas sniper attack

    http://www.cnn.com/2016/07/08/us/phi...sts/index.html

    Dallas sniper attack: 5 officers killed during protests against police

    (CNN)Shooters killed five officers during protests against police in downtown Dallas, marking the deadliest single attack on U.S. law enforcement since September 11, 2001.
    The gunfire started Thursday night as demonstrators marched against the shooting deaths of two African-American men by police in Louisiana and Minnesota.

    A total of 11 officers were shot, and some of the six officers injured are undergoing surgery, authorities said.
    It was the deadliest single attack on law enforcement since the 2001 terror attacks, when 72 officers died, according to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund.

    Oh, and the ending was predictable and the plot lame. I mean, how many times did the director keep going back to that greasy-faced F A T Texan reporter?


    And all of those F A T people running around in the summer heat. Gross. Even the latest Star Wars had better characters.

Without a standing military we would be the target of every nutball and terrorist out there.

    Probably the handy work of people who want a national police force. All this ruckus is probably funded by George Soros.

    Hey Vonnie...come on...sing your song again about the only country in the world that matters because it's the greatest country of the world.

    Fucking morons...I hope Trump makes it. You really deserve him. Then all of you get a gun and shoot each other in a giant OK Corral.

    I can hear good old Charles Manson scream from his prison cell..."See, I told ya...Helter Skelter is coming. Blackie is killing whitie..."

    Interesting that people had lots to say about brexit but very little about police shooting unarmed civilians or heavily armed civilians shooting police officers.

    Maybe these events don't support people's black and white agenda. Pun intended.

    The one troubling part of this story that's not really being discussed is the method they supposedly used to kill this asshole.

    They sent a robot in with a bomb to blow up the motherfucker. Or in other words, they "droned" an American citizen on US soil without due process.

    And while nobody is going to say this piece of shit didn't deserve to die, it is still a VERY troubling thing to look at. Will assassination by drone now become a common tactic of an already way too goddamn militarized police force??

    That was an interesting plot twist to be sure. Too much CGI, though.

    People are killed by the police without due process all the time. Sometimes it's what needed to be done. Sometimes it isn't. What difference does it make that the police decided to send in a robot instead of a human being to do it? It could be worse. They could have used the puppets from the Puppet Master movies.

    Better yet have a robot dressed as a courier hold out a packet containing a bomb while saying CandyGram for Mongo, CandyGram for Mongo until the bad guy takes it to see who it's from and BAM it incinerates him.

    So, the Dallas cops should have just talked the guy to death or what? I don't care if they used a Hellfire missile to kill the guy. Drone, robot, Terminator - I don't care. Kill the guy and end it.

    And how is killing a dude who murdered five cops an "assassination"?

    And how are you even still posting online? Oh, nevermind. Your white privilege allows you to post while cops are carrying out their plan to exterminate black people, right? Lucky you.

    It's Texas. They could have bored him to death with some bad corporate establishment "country" music, like George Strait or some other such nonsense.

    Reminds me of a blind pug dog I used to have. When she got excited she'd walk over to the wall and walk and sniff the entire inside perimeter of my house over and over again. Her name was Grunter but her nickname was Roomba.

    Pugs are smarter than they look. No doubt she was finding a way to "map" out the house by scent so she could navigate without eyesight. It's either that or get a service animal. And what the Hell kind of service animal would a blind dog get?

    Sad thing. But the one thing you're missing is you will never regulate Moral standards. None of the tools matter if all your motivation is to kill people. It will never stop until the motivation to kill is gone.

    Having the tools freely available clearly does increase the amount of killing.

    Half the firearm deaths in the US are suicides. Everyone feels down at certain times in their lives, having a killing tool which can quickly and easily and most importantly, very effectively carry that out means thousands of Americans die because it's made easier.

    Similarly although mass shooting atrocities happen everywhere clearly they happen far far far more often in the US. Every country has crazy people, the difference in the US is that there is widespread public opinion there that allowing them to have powerful killing tools is worth the 'freedom' trade off. The rest of the western world can't get to grips with this logic and maybe never will. They would view the more important 'freedoms' to be being able to have public protests against government policy, a right to a reasonable range of choices in elections and so on.

    The guns don't kill people, people kill people argument is just a bit silly.

    Look at the US accidental deaths figures compared to other countries.



    A 1986 study found that, for every time a gun was used in self-defense in a home, there were 1.3 accidental deaths, 4.6 criminal homicides, and 37 suicides involving a firearm. Therefore, a gun kept in the home is 43 times more likely to kill a member of the household, or a friend, than an actual intruder.

    But you guys must all know this by this point, I guess it's like religion or whatever whereby facts aren't going to affect beliefs.

    What does that graph represent? 50 out of 100,000 people are fatally injured by what? How do you age adjust that?

    it's a bullshit graph about nothing. black crime hasn't been reported the same since the kenyan houseboy appointed holder to push down crime rate stats. non whites are whites, latinos are whites, mulattoes are whites.

    black male teen crime rates are at their highest level ever and the stats are hidden or no longer reported. dallas crime rates up 30%.

    bitch lynch sent a letter warning judges at every level that their courts would lose federal funds if they continue to fine and arrest blacks for minor crimes.

    so any bullshit chart has been bought and paid for..........

    Accidental Deaths and Injuries

    A key observation noted by Hedeboe and his colleagues is that injuries are inflicted by whatever object is most near. However, when a gun is available, impromptu arguments escalate quickly, leading to a lethal injury. FBI data from 1981, for example, found that 2/3rds of deaths involving arguments were a result of guns. These deaths would have been replaced by non-fatal injuries had the guns not been present.

    This is the reason that the United States leads other developed countries when it comes to fatal injury rates:

    Image from New Zealand Injury Prevention Strategy Secretariat

    In another study, David Hemenway found that unintentional firearm deaths in the U.S. are five times higher than any other high-income country. Among the 23 countries compared, 87% of all firearm deaths of children under the age of 15 occurred in America. In 1995, 5285 U.S. children were killed by a firearm, compared with 57 in Germany and 0 in Japan.

    The risk of accidental firearm deaths is also not shared equally among the population: in low-income areas, the likelihood of unintentional injury is 10 times higher than in high-income areas. Rates are particularly high among Native Americans, White teenagers, and African Americans age 15-34.

    Remember, these are accidental firearm deaths, and they happen far more often than accidental deaths from any other weapon. According to the most recent data from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), in 2010, 606 people were killed by unintentional firearm injuries. By contrast, the next highest category for unintentional deaths by weapon was knives (or other sharp objects) which killed 105 people in 2010. Despite the fact that there are many more knives in the United States than guns, guns are responsible for five times as many accidents. The reason being, of course, that accidents caused by guns are more lethal than accidents by any other weapon.

    In the case of unintentional injury, then, the evidence is clear that guns do kill people.

    Big news here today...

    http://www.heraldscotland.com/news/1...ast/?ref=fbshr

    Armed police shock shoppers by sitting down to a supermarket breakfast






    Shoppers were left shocked after armed police sat down to their breakfast at a supermarket.

    The four officers were carrying handguns when they sat down to their meal in view of startled customers.

    But Police Scotland have insisted their officers were doing nothing wrong at the Tesco store in Dingwall, Highlands, on Sunday.

    One customer who was eating in the store's café said the officers just casually walked into the store and spent around 30 minutes in the staff cafe while carrying the weapons.

    The staff café is visible from where customers are served at the main café counter.

    The customer added: "My concern is if a little old lady or family is in there and sees four police officers with guns they will be worried about what is going on.

    "It can cause undue alarm and it's not good for public confidence. They should be able to lock them securely in a car boot while going for breakfast.

    "It's not as if there is likely to be danger in the minute it takes to get to the café. It's almost as if they are doing it with a certain arrogance."

    Douglas Ross, Highland and Islands Conservative MSP, said: "In the past there has been concerns raised locally and in parliament about armed officers visibly showing arms when not on call and assurances were made that this practice would not continue.

    "This is a worrying incident and I expect the local force in Police Scotland to comment on the fact there were up to four officers in a Tesco store early on Sunday when there was no emergency for them to deal with."

    Local councillor Graham MacKenzie said: "I am surprised to hear this and I will be asking the local police commander what the situation was.

    "I would not want local people to be alarmed by seeing this."

    A spokeswoman for Police Scotland said: "These officers were doing absolutely nothing wrong.

    "Police Scotland's standing firearms authority means there is a chance that members of the public will see a small number of our officers in public places wearing sidearms.

    "Armed officers must wear their sidearm while on duty at all times, but are only sent to incidents where an armed response is deemed necessary or there is an immediate threat to life."

    She added that the officers were allowed to be in the store's staff café under an agreement with the management.

    Hell, you guys in Scotland would have a stroke if you saw all the people here who carry - openly and concealed. Most people don't even look twice at a person carrying down here.
