one officer was able to fire back before succumbing to his injuries,
Honestly people seem to be loosing their minds.
That's good work.
My guess? "Spice" (supposedly synthetic weed, but actually whatever chems someone threw together in a garage) or "bath salts" (another garage drug available online). I've heard crazy things about both.
I know have a rep for being soapboxy but those officers had families and those idiots just killed them without a thought. It's heartbreaking.
Not to mention the innocent by-standers. My question is WTH do they mean by "the war"
I am so sorry for these officers, their families, their fellow police officers and the community. I have said it once and I will say it again, I hate guns. I respect Americans for having their constitutional right to own guns and that is just the way it is in the US, but me personally, and again, me personally, I love living in an almost gun-free society.
If someone in the restaurant had carried, maybe the scumbags wouldn't have made it to Walmart.
Two can play that game, if the guy had not been allowed to own a gun he most likely would have never been able to go on a shooting spree.

yeah people willing to commit capital murder (you kill a cop and you almost always DIE-whether by other cops shooting you or the executioner) are going to be deterred from getting a gun.
you must think our war on drugs keeps dope away from people too?
He would probably have poisoned the water, used a bomb, infected others or otherwise caused many more deaths. Him using a gun presumably saved lives.
How ya like that?
Nonsense, that is what I think of that. Using guns is usually a short sighted dumb ass violent short circuit in some idiots brain. Poisoning, bombing, infecting or otherwise usually is done by people with a clear defined goal, people who cunningly use well constructed plans to kill people. People who go on shooting sprees usually are not working from a well formulated cunning plan to have a clearly defined goal. Usually it is just an orgy of violence, death, noise and mindless short sighted aiming their weapons at everything that moves.

Maybe. What is unknown is if there were any armed patrons there. If you shoot at an armed person, especially one who just shot two armed policemen, they will shoot back at you. Not all people with guns are good marksman (nor the sharpest knives in the drawer) and in a public restaurant full of innocent bystanders, the likelihood of one of them getting hit is exponentially increased.
Nonsense.
They cant stop THIS...Two can play that game, if the guy had not been allowed to own a gun he most likely would have never been able to go on a shooting spree.
`If you see someone shooting a cop, fire. If for no other reason than you could be next.
Still way too early but the Review Journal article said that they did exchange gunfire with an armed CCW holder.`

Maybe. The problem with these pretend situations is they can be manipulated to say anything. In one scenario, you're the hero, in another you are foolishly dead.

...how are they going to stop illegal guns?
Anyway...too soon and this really isnt about guns. Eco mentioned spice...a neighbor said he thought they were heavily into meth. Yeah...that would make more sense.
Tragic.

`It's not about being a hero. If you see a cop being murdered, fire. End of ****ing story.
