T3X4S Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Dont have a lot of info as it is hapenning right now. Downtown Dallas - An anti-police BLM protest was broken up with fully automatic gunfire. Protesters and bystanders were seen running and hiding under cars. The protest was a result of the blacks shot by cops. It appears the cops were deliberately targeted by the gunman/gunmen.

It is about 1 block away from where I used to work. Right now, it appears an active shooter(s) is trying to pick people off. The cops have narrowed it down it seems to a single building, we are listening to the police chatter and SWAT is on the 3rd floor of the BELO building.

T3X4S Posted July 8, 2016 Author Share Posted July 8, 2016 SWAT just announced for all tactical personnel to switch over to a private radio channel so we can't hear anymore. Only details are 2 cops were shot or shot at. But the news coverage that was in the area recorded a barrage of automatic gun fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure somewhere, they do, however we don't hear about it nor does it really make the mainstream news like many of the BLM protests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Evil Overlord Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 I got into this conversation via my U.S. buddies on PSN, bad, as I don't know the full story behind the recent shootings I won't go into it, but as a further update, Have the police identified the perpetrator(s) containment etc..?

techbeck Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 (edited) I doubt anyone from the organizations/groups protesting the police will come out and condemn these actions. Hope I am wrong, but the way things are going around the world these days....I have my doubts. 1st cousin is married to a police officer in Forney. Glad he is not in the area but I am sure he is feeling it as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supposedly he went home. This was related by the organizer's brother, has not been confirmed as he was simply complaining about his brother being mentioned as a suspect when he did nothing wrong.

DocM Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 (edited) PC reports are glossing over it being a BLM protest. 2 snipers, 4 dead, 7 injured Live reports say it's still ongoing. The progressive meme that there aren't any cop attacks associated with BLM and that cops don't need armored vehicles or heavy weaponry in such incidents is now rightly destroyed. Poof. Casper. http://live.att.net/news/read/article/the_associated_press-hundreds_rally_in_nyc_against_fatal_police_shootin-ap Quote DALLAS (AP) — At least two snipers opened fire on police officers during protests in Dallas on Thursday night, killing four officers and injuring seven others, police said. Dallas Police Chief David Brown told reporters the snipers fired "ambush style" upon the officers. Police later said in a statement that a suspect who was in a shootout with Dallas SWAT officers was is in custody and a person of interest had surrendered. They said a suspicious package was being secured by a bomb squad. The gunfire broke out around 8:45 p.m. Thursday while hundreds of people were gathered to protest fatal police shootings this week in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and suburban St. Paul, Minnesota. > Edited July 8, 2016 by DocM DConnell and Sonne 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I saw a report that a "person of Interest" "surrendered" which is the news media doing their nasty thing they do to boost ratings. I was out a few weeks back and saw a giant billboard advertising a TV channel as "The Disaster Channel" with the best coverage of WTF? How did anyone in the chain of approving that billboard think it was in good taste? T3X4S 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
