Well, looks like microbet's prop bet was a push. Better luck next time, gamblers.

Apparently he was black, but what about the supposed video of the shooter in the act mentioned earlier ITT? Didn't it show a white guy?
The video was confusing to me. All the cops running around were white. The gunman apparently had a balaclava around his face.

I know you are not being totally serious, but just for the record I never offered or contemplated betting on this.

Ah ok. It wasn't a rhetorical question, I don't know what people look like after being killed by a bomb at point blank, and I wasn't sure if they'd be recognizable. I'm mildly curious about his identity.

07-08-2016 , 10:57 AM
They've ID'd the dead suspect.

Neither will a higher minimum wage. It's amazing how one segment of the population can be so severely mistreated and oppressed by a political party, yet they overwhelmingly keep supporting that party. Gotta have victims to get the vote.
No it wouldn't. But it might help you stop shooting each other, for ****s sake.

The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a robot with a bomb imo

Triangulated positions will turn out to be untrue.
07-08-2016 , 11:05 AM
lol, love waking up and hearing they blew dude up. for a ****ty situation, that's an awesome ending.


also, maybe covered already, but just reading about the open carry guy and how once he heard shots ring out, he told his brother something to the effect of "lets give our guns to the cops so no mistake...blah blah blah...."

wait....you mean the open carry guy didn't take up a defensive position and try to SAVE FREEDOM??? wtf was he doing out there with his cannon in the first place then?

oh, wait, I remember....being an *******

It's simply cover for for failed government policies, especially in urban America.
Nobody is blaming guns for society's ills. What we are doing is claiming that less guns will cause less deadly violence. A fact proven by every other 1st World country on our planet.

I assume the fact he's black meant for Wheel Gunner that he was automatically a 'BLM guy' which I assume will be the default assumption of mouthbreathers everywhere. The reflexive reactions were already pre-baked. White dude = crazy person who needed meds. Black dude = thanks Obama, Al Sharpton for Making America Racist Again, agitating BLM into shooting white hero cops. Muslim dude = thanks Obama for ISIS, ban Mohammedmen immigrants and build the border wall now.

Yeah weird to go straight to "BLM guy" and not "Army vet" or "American gun owner" based on that article/pics.

Bureau of Land Management was not involved. :/

Nope. Never happen.

It will lead to further militarization of the police though. So there's that.

He was also apparently in the military so we can probably safely assume that he has special forces training and a member of Obama's secret soldiers and was ordered by him directly to carry out this attack.

Definite possibility. Everyone has forgot about Hillary.
