Two NYPD Officers Killed this afternoon

http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/nyc ... -1.2051941

In Ambush style targeted shooting. I can't find anything to confirm this, but I'm reading the gunman posted on instagram he was going to do it beforehand. Shooters is dead of a self inflicted gunshot wound.

(As an aside: Do yourselves a favor and stay away from any twitter replies to news outlets or reporters covering this. This country is so chock full of brain dead scumbags I'm not exaggerating when I say it makes me ill)

In the not so old days, that area of Myrtle Avenue was nicknamed Murder Avenue.

I was going to post a pic that was being shared on twitter, but there's no point in giving this scumbag any more exposure.

There has been graffiti showing up in Philadelphia lately...

These people are **** sick. I'm not defining "morals" in the religious sense, but gigantic tracts of urban wastelands are utterly devoid of morals, or any sense of right and wrong. I feel horrible for the families that are trying to raise their children in the same hood as these monsters.

I can't imagine being a police officer in this kind of setting....my God I can't. Put yourself in their shoes....especially in light of those poor men that were murdered a week before Christmas in NYC. Tell me you wouldn't have an extraordinarily itchy trigger finger when patrolling these neighborhoods and dealing with these people.

It's really easy to say they should act professionally and properly and always observe every proper measure that is possible, but I am **** sick of seeing this crap. Sick of it.

The lack of outrage over this is certainly questioning to say the least. I follow a lot of people who are anti-gun and have posted endlessly about white privilege the past few weeks, but they are silent on this shooting.

are you surprised? Let's face it, the people that defended any cops in the past were called every name in the book. Why would they open themselves up on social media to be berated again?

Do you need vocal outrage? This is disturbing and terrifying. Feel bad for police officers and their families at this time.

And then there's this......seriously, I feel awful for any police officer in an urban area at this time, and like TL said, can't imagine being their families.

The police officers names were "Wenjin Liu" and "Raphael Ramos." Not exactly Caucasian names. Not that any of this is rational but if you're going to kill a bunch of cops for white cop on black civilian crime, you should probably not muddle your message and pick an Asian and Latino. :face:

Why are you assuming it was anti-white (which apparently it wasn't) instead of anti-cop?

I see what you're doing, but I'll indulge you.
“They Take 1 Of Ours…Let’s Take 2 of Theirs" said Crazy ******* gunman.

He used the hashtag #ShootThePolice, along with two other hashtags referencing Garner and Brown. said NY Post
Crazy ******* gunman, Garner, Brown. All black. Given there are black policeman, "Ours/Theirs" seems like crazy ******* is talking about something else.

From: http://nypost.com/2014/12/20/2-nypd-cop ... -brooklyn/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Are you implying if a black policeman had shot Brown we never would've heard about it? Or is it more likely this d-bag was lazy and shot the first two sitting ducks he could find even if it didn't fit his keyboard warrior rants?

shoot the police would seem to be the key phrase; not that it acceptable, of course.

I'm shocked they don't acknowledge something that doesn't fit their B.S. There won't be any outrage over this, just more garbage about how cops will now be on alert for "minorities" without anything to support it.
