The Shooting Gallery: Police Violence MEGATHREAD

[Malicious Intent]

(...)
You watch the blowback on this develop over the next few days, and watch the narrative develop, the same way Orlando's narrative developed.  See, this is what happens when you let blacks march.  See, this is what happens when you lend credibility to #BlackLivesMatter.  We told you so.

And, by implication, that the victims of excessive police force like those in Baton Rouge and Minneapolis are not only forgotten, but actually deserved what they got.  Watch how the internet will start leaning in on the insinuations that this is President Obama's fault from his comments yesterday.
(...)

And here it starts already:

Former Illinois Congressman Joe Walsh is facing a wave of criticism online after he threatened President Obama in a tweet.  He has since deleted the tweet.

So the cops blew this dude up with a grenade (or something) delivered via robot?  I had no idea that was even a thing police would do.

I believe it was a stun grenade.

Yes, ordnance delivery has improved substantially since the strategic bombing campaigns in North Vietnam and Philadelphia.

Yeah because of my fault in not wanting to politicize this event (aka talk about presidential election in this thread), Bob posted a link to that in the presidential election thread.

Ah ok. I was about to say. I don't think anybody thinks having suicide bots would be a nice thing for the police to be able to deploy.

  If you ever decide you want to take some hostages and conduct your own armed standoff, [spoiler]don't ever accept a toss phone from the police. [/spoiler]

Ah, haven't seen it. Sorry for bringing it up here.

Eh.  I dunno.   ABC is straight up saying he was killed by a bomb delivered by a robot.

A B-52 out of Barksdale just takes too long to get there sometimes.

Oh wow, yeah that does seem to be that way. Crazy if true.

Dude was an Army Reservist.  Some sort of construction type.

Never heard of that, either.  First two or three times I read it I assumed the shooter had an explosive device with him and the robot detonated.  Kind of hard core, but if the guy wasn't going to give up and continued to be a threat to people, I guess I can't argue with it.

[derspiess]

I admit it. I'm okay with being worse than Obama.

Fuck the second amendment. Take that shit out of our Constitution. You want guns for target practice and hunting? Fine. No problem. You go through a full background check, you get finger-printed, and smile for the camera. Other than that, get rid of the goddamn guns.

So tired of waking up to this bullshit. 

Hear, hear!

Vetoed.  Let's move on.

[Valmy]

It seems now the flags are at half mast more often than they are at full mast.

Fuck.

Be interesting to see what information comes out about these bastards in the next couple days.
