1. A sobering reminder

of how close we are to open warfare in the streets of USA.

Even though I'm outraged by the recent wave of trigger-happy
killer-cops shooting down African Americans in the street, I
totally hope the police that took the gunfire are going to survive.

We need to ask ourselves: "why are Americans shooting each other
dead in the streets?"

2. don't like that anyone got shot, buy i have to wonder

were they moving along as is required of the citizens, or were they unlawfully assembling?

just asking, nothing more.

3. By "they" do you mean the protesters?

Don't you mean "we"?

Just asking, nothing more.

[edgineered]

5. in my obviously flawed belief system,

laws should apply equally for everyone.

to refine that a little bit, i am attempting to weigh the risks of violating the law equally as well.

seeing an unlawful assembly of armed persons could potentially make one feel as if his life was threatened. just saying.

6. I think the only people with firearms were the police

except for one (maybe 2?) random shooters who no one knew who the f*ck they were.

Just going by the spontaneous voices of protesters responding to the shooting in the video.

7. That's his point. If unarmed protesters are not allowed to assemble but

are required to "move along," then, he suggests, the *armed* police should also have to "move along."

4. My little brother who is a federal police officer been transferred to this general location lately.

He could be called up to help keep the peace, he is one of the best people I have ever known. If I lost him to this I would loose myself.

8. 2 police officers being shot

is as bad as two protestors being shot. If you think differently then you are no kind of progressive I want in my camp.

10. Cops from either Ferguson or towns nearby

Are most assuredly the shooters. Most protester in town have had their guns taken.

12. Cops shooting cops?

Do you really think so?

You mean like a false flag thing, to whip up public sympathy and support,
after that scathing DoJ report the other day? like that?

[Eko]

13. You are sick.
