Compton 'ambush' leaves 2 LA County sheriff's deputies 'fighting for their lives'


A manhunt was underway in California early Sunday after two Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies were shot in their patrol car Saturday by a suspect who “opened fire without warning or provocation,” authorities said.


The deputies, a 24-year-old man and a 31-year-old woman, were both in critical condition and “fighting for their lives” as they underwent surgery following the attack, which occurred around 7 p.m. local time outside a Metro rail station in Compton, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.

Sincerely hope they pull through.


A local faith leader who came to the hospital to pray for the deputies, told a KABC reporter that some of the protesters had been shouting slogans like "Death to police!


Can we all agree hospitals should be off limits?
 
The shooter looks like a kid. We need stricter gun laws.
Why would someone willing to ambush two cops and shoot them in the head give two ****s about any gun laws? The guns are already on the street, you can't put the Genie back in the bottle.

You know where the shooter got the gun already? Amazing. Most of the world doesn't even know who the shooter was.

So the shooter didn’t care about the laws against shooting law enforcement officers, but would have respected stricter gun laws?

Really? You think that shooter got the gun legally and we need stricter laws to prevent that?

Stricter gun laws can make it harder to actually acquire the weapon. HTH

Yes, it would be great if we could.

‘Hundreds of opponents of Michigan’s social distancing measures rallied in their cars in the state capital on Wednesday, snarling traffic and even blocking a hospital entrance in a protest against an executive order intended to halt the spread of the novel coronavirus in the state.

“The cars were blocking one of our hospitals, so an ambulance literally wasn’t able to get into the bay for ten minutes,” said Gov. Gretchen Whitmer,”

If people don’t have easy access to guns, less people get shot.

Its why ya’ll keep demanding abortion clinics close. Access.

What kind of stupid takeaway from what I said is that? My point was in response to yours. How would more gun laws have prevented this, when IF they was prohibited from buying legally, it isn't even difficult to obtain a gun, and more gun laws will never change that. Meanwhile, more peaceful protesters chanting they hope the young mother and young man die, while their families sit inside. And you will defend it. You already are. It's like a kneejerk reaction.

Abortion clinics shouldn't be closed unless there is some kind of serious medical malpractice, but that goes for any health clinic. When it comes to guns though, you're in America. There will always be guns.

Am I supposed to believe you care about some cops, now?

and the idea should be to limit access as much as possible. VIOLENCE will always be with us, it’s about stymieing someone’s ability to turn a bad situation into a mass shooting.
 
The lefties are awesome at changing the dialogue when we're discussing something they want no part of hearing about.

The cops that got ambushed weren't doing anything. They were just sitting in their squad some punk walked up and shot them. Then more punks showed up at the hospital to protest the fact that the cops were being treated. Then, when we try to discuss why this kind of insanity is happening the punks around here decide they'd rather have a discussion about gun control.

You can get the guns off the streets though

I do not want anyone hurt. I don’t know what’s wrong with you that you feel otherwise, and my posts on this issue are so obvious and meant to highlight how you don’t care about *any* human bodies in any of these scenarios. Cops live to shoot or be shot so they can be martyrs for you. Black people are meant to be shot so you can feel good about ‘criminals getting what’s coming to them.”

Miss me with what you are supposed to believe. Conservatives believe in ****.

YOu guys get *thrilled* at stories like this. You love it.

It is not about respect. It is about access
 
Shouldn't you be out shoveling snow?

Not until after Halloween. In the meantime, I'm watching my country go to ****. I've been watching it for over 10 years. Despite what my political positions were prior to me leaving the US, it is obvious to all unbiased observers that Trump is not the sole, or even primary cause of the chaos.

I think he got it illegally. Now how did that happen. How did he happen to get an illegal gun?
