If there's actually bombs, seems like this was planned for a while. Would be nuts if it turned out to be ISIS sympathizers, but you'd think they would target civilians too. 7/8/2016 12:34:33 AM

This has been a cluster fuck from the get go... more than usual.
I understand chaos is inevitable in the beginning, but the information coming out from DPD is a mess. The chief at the press conference causally mentioned there might be a bomb. I immediately thought of Airplane II with Sonny Bono with the briefcase bomb. 7/8/2016 12:46:22 AM

Video of a guy there who was leaving the rally when the shooting started.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRp-UK-bisQ Video of 1 suspect being arrested, they didn't shoot him. Looks like a black guy in camo pants.

^i get what you're saying and i understand how one could be put off by "politicizing" such incidents, and i'm not really saying you're wrong...but if you can't bring up gun control immediately following mass shootings, when can/should you?
guess it all depends on how we define "mass shooting" but http://www.politifact.com/florida/statements/2015/oct/08/debbie-wasserman-schultz/how-many-americans-have-been-killed-mass-shootings/ from that link
Quote : | "The federal government’s more restrictive definition means it tends to count fewer incidents than Mass Shooting Tracker. Using 2013, the most recent year for which federal data is available, the Congressional Research Service found 25 mass shooting incidents -- far less than the 363 counted by Mass Shooting Tracker." |
on the low end there's a couple each month...on the high end they occur nearly every single day of the year. so when's the best time to address it?

press conference:
sounds like one confirmed shooter, dead via remotely detonated explosive delivered by some type of robot (pretty sure i heard that right) after hours of negotiations. no other confirmed shooters yet but they're pursuing leads etc. Wouldn't speak to people in custody or anything about the investigation. shooter expressed anger over recent police shootings, wanted to kill white people, especially white officers.] 7/8/2016 8:55:26 AM

Wait a minute.
So no one is concerned here that we took out a citizen with what is essentially a grenade?
WTF?
I get that this guy was extremely dangerous. But we are detonating bombs on citizens?

For one thing, because I don't think "knockout gas" is a real thing.
Do we know that the intention was to blow the guy up? It's possible they were trying to breach the wall, which is a common enough tactic. In fact, didn't they do so to take down the Orlando shooter? 7/8/2016 9:21:36 AM

Ok, the robot grenade thing.
This was an active standoff. This wasnt some BS random civilian hiding. He was obviously armed. Its the same thing as Swat getting on the roof and taking him out.
Its just a new quicker way to get out of a standoff without risking more police. 7/8/2016 9:24:39 AM

OK so apparently they did say the goal was to blow him up. I'm still fine with it. Like BEU said, it's not like this was your run-of-the-mill crackpot in a standoff. He'd already killed people and expressed his desire to kill more and he had the equipment to do it. Fuck him. Fuck him on two levels. One, the basic "he's a murderer" level. Two, the level on which his crime is exactly the reason that police are over-armed and hypersensitive. 7/8/2016 9:28:33 AM
