The problem is the leftist media latches onto the wrong ones - police shootings where the victim actually committed real crimes, attacked police and went for their weapons. This creates a racial divide in the county and furthers the leftist paradigm that blacks are treated unfairly, even when they are acting badly.

Creates a racial divide? Are you stoned or something? The racial divide never went away. It's always been here and, if anything, has just deepened over time. There's legal integration, yes, but emotionally, people will always be segregated.

Ok, deepens the racial divide. Quit being so picky. I just woke up from a nap like 4 minutes ago to this shit, and it pretty much means the same thing, I never said there was no racial divide, I was just saying it creates more of a racial divide.

Is anyone surprised that people are finally taking a stand against police abuse. I am surprised it took this long actually. And I am willing to bet it will get worse before it gets better... much worse. Police will be even more jumpy, and more sniper type actions or other things will proliferate in retaliation. The militarized state and big brother will advance at a rapid rate... It is a vicious circle of death to the bottom, more than likely resulting in civil war. At the end of the day, what side will you be on? Government order and control, or rebellion against the state? It is starting folks.
 
So far their only lead is that someone saw someone with a rifle walking peacefully down the road with it? They did some great Twitter detective work there.

Police shootings ARE an important issue that should be protested, this forum reported on such incidents from the beginning, on almost a weekly basis.

"The wrong ones?" Which ones were wrong? When is it okay to protest against the police? Your mistake is assuming these protests are only about the individuals who become the faces of these stories, when really, it's about the rotten system that keeps allowing these things to happen and for cops to get away without facing punishment. Where do your priorities lie?

Mr.NoSmile addressed the other portion of your post, so I won't. Edit: These issues of race NEED to be discussed and confronted, not swept under the rug. It exists, and there are institutional problems.

All of the ones that blew up on the mainstream media have been "the wrong ones". The ones that were posted here for years and years, and didn't get mainstream media attention, were better ones to protest. But the media can't use those to divide the country because they can't give the real story to Fox News (where the guy is a criminal and attacks an officer) and give the concocted story to CNN and MSNBC (he was a big fluffly puppy who got shot in the back for no reason) to deepen the racial divide.

The thing is, minorities live with this shit, the harassment and mistreatment on a daily basis. So they will latch onto anything anti-police. They have a reason to protest, I agree, but it's not a good idea to latch onto the leftist media propaganda - they have bad intentions.

The reason why this issue isn't going anywhere is because the Trayvons and Michael Browns get all the press. Thugs. People who were doing something wrong and got in trouble for it.
You and Danno and I can sit and argue about how they shouldn't have gotten shot either, and how they add to the evidence that the cops are all rotten, but the 70 year old white guy who remembers what New York City was like in the 70s isn't going to hear it. He's going to see that leftists are winging when criminals are getting their comeuppance, and that's as far as he's going to look into it. And if you or I were to try to convince him that there are many more John Crawfords and Philando Castiles happening, he's going to chuck shit at us like an ape because we're against his beloved cops who he sees as the only people who have any business beating up black guys.

So yeah, they're concentrating on the wrong ones. It's not Dannos or my priorities that are screwed up: it's literally everyone elses'. And we're not going to change their priorities by ignoring what their current priorities are.

Antischism you are disgusting. You care more about your pet issue than preserving status quo of not having snipers shoot at police.

Sorry to say but peaceful protestors do bear the responsibility for this. Because they create the environment where the cops are being targeted.

I care for police abuse. But this is hardly an issue for me when $#@! like this happens and when we are going through this insane election.

And how are peaceful protesters responsible for this? Should they not protest? Maybe they should have shielded the cops? You must be a Trump supporter. Trump supporters are dumb as rocks.

This man's brother has come forward and said it is definitely not him shooting, he was a just a 2nd am. exercising, and has already turned his rifle over to police when shooting started.

4th Officer has died.

You might as well say "only a case involving a rich white person will get people to care," but even then, I don't think these people will lose their love of authority and cops. Until the cops start targeting white communities and gunning down white children, well-off white people are going to continue worshipping the police because they see them as a personal army that protects them from the "Other."
 
Guy in the picture has turned himself in to the Dallas police, by the way. That doesn't mean he did it, to be clear. He's still just a person of interest.

Well tell me this if he was truly exercising his 2nd amendment privileges then why wasnt he hunting or at a shooting range
 
Gun control rhetoric is getting ready to get ratcheted up, and sadly people who erroneously side with cops are probably going to finally be swayed. JMHO
 
Looks like it might be wrapped up, the guy in photo turned himself in, another subject is in custody as well, and of course a possible bomb was located nearby: https://twitter.com/DallasPD

Was this a terrorist attack or violent protesters/extremists seeking street justice?

ETA:

Also 4-deceased police now.
