One New York City police officer is dead and another was in critical condition today after they were shot as they sat in their patrol vehicle in the Bedford Stuyvesant neighborhood of Brooklyn, city officials said.
The suspect in the shooting was also dead, of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, the officials said."

A very sad day for NYPD. I hope the families will be taken care of.

While not much is know since the event just took placed and the investigation is just underway. The suspected shooter is dead from a self inflicted gunshot and a firearm was recovered.

What stood out with the initial reports is no mention of the shooters or police officer's race. Maybe it will come out later. Just found it interesting after all the coverage of police officer shootings and choke hold.

Just saw this. I read that the guy killed his girlfriend earlier in the day as well. He also apparently posted on his Instagram that he was going to "kill pigs today" in revenge for Mike Brown and Eric Garner. Then he killed himself. Insane. I don't really see how killing his girlfriend has anything to do with Brown and Garner nor do I see how killing himself helps revenge, but I guess it's futile to understand what I suspect is some sort of psychosis.

I'm very sorry to learn of these murders. The girlfriend's family, those of the two police officers, and the NYPD have my fullest condolences.

Maybe she was also a pig as in a sweat hog ?

I've noticed on the DP there are still more than a few progressive liberals who still refer to cops as pigs.

Bill and Hillary Clinton would refer to their Secret Service detail as pigs. Must be a liberal thing ?
 
Re: One NYPD Cop Dead, Another Critical After They Were Shot in Vehicle

This is the first incident of police being shot to death in NYC in 3 years.
 
Re: One NYPD Cop Dead, Another Critical After They Were Shot in Vehicle


Disgusting, as usual.
 
Re: One NYPD Cop Dead, Another Critical After They Were Shot in Vehicle

RIP the cops that died because of some sick asshole.

Re: One NYPD Cop Dead, Another Critical After They Were Shot in Vehicle

It will be interesting if President Obama will make anything more than a passing comment.

Will have to catch the 10 pm news. See what additional info and how the report the incident.

Just once, Apache, could you please, please refrain from partisan swill?
 
Re: One NYPD Cop Dead, Another Critical After They Were Shot in Vehicle

Come on! Where's the voices saying that these cops deserved it? Isn't this what "justice" is supposed to look like?

Great. The Mayor implies that cops are to blame for black kids getting killed. Protesters marching to the chant of "What do we want? Dead cops! When do we want them? Now!" Ambulance crews and public defenders posting pics showing people pointing pistols at cops heads.

Well, mother****ers, if you really wanted to start a war this is the way to do it.

If he had not committed suicide he could have become a left wing hero like Mumia Abu-Jamal.

Even idiot Hollywood stars would have rushed to defend him.

Totally low class inappropriate.
 
Re: One NYPD Cop Dead, Another Critical After They Were Shot in Vehicle

I am still wondering why the news is not reporting the race of the police officers and the shooters. Not trying to make this thread about race. It just seems the bias in the media may be present. They had no problem reporting over and over again that a white officer shot a black teenager.

Guess in the current situation they can't say the NYPD were unarmed.:mrgreen:

How do you fight suicide shooters/bombers? Not trying to challenge you but honestly I don't know how you can prevent this sort of action.

Re: One NYPD Cop Dead, Another Critical After They Were Shot in Vehicle

It's a tragic situation, while there may be issues with police interaction with the public in general, it's inexcusable to carry out such acts of brutal murder.

You can't prevent it but you don't have to be out there sponsoring the crap that leads up to it.

Look at some of these comments:

More awful news (8+ / 2-)

One of the cops is being reported as being African-American! This story is becoming very, very bad.

WTF does one of the cops being black have to do with it?

It's the NRA's fault?

There are just no words to describe the level of crazy that some of the "social justice" crowd comes up with.

It appears that the NYPD officers involved were pretending to do just that, on overtime no less. I heard on the news that they were part of some anti-terrorism task force and were on overtime providing an increased "police presence". Indeed, it is very, very hard to stop a moron that intends to do his thing and then commit suicide.
