BREAKING: Shots fired at BLM protest in downtown Dallas, TX

[Lyin' Steve]

I saw this coming a year ago, Kendrick Lamar and Killer Mike can only promote cop killing as a recourse to isolated incidents of police brutality so much, naive college students and professional agitators "activists" can only pull attention stunts screaming about their wildly overdramatized "lived experience of oppression" so much, and talking heads and editorial writers can only claim that "black people are afraid to leave their houses because they may get murdered" and "there are two classes of people in this country" and write about "black bodies" and "people who look like me" and all that crap so much, before someone actually takes it all seriously and starts shooting cops or white people thinking that they're fighting for freedom.

These two cops will die, Tumblr and other sources of online race hate will turn them into martyrs, CNN/Salon/HuffPo will bring agitators and, as Obama put it, "professional blacks", into the fold to "teach the controversy", and more will follow in their footsteps as a result.

Congratulations BLM, today you officially crossed the line and became associated with terrorism.

You're jumping to conclusions way too fast.

Given that the snipers are only shooting police officers, and the shooting happened at a BLM rally, where people were giving speeches saying things like "We are targets!  We made it to freedom and you're still killing us. You're still hanging us from trees" as quoted in the CNN article, it's a pretty obvious conclusion.

Ugh, here we go, I was hoping we could at least wait until the bodies are cold until people start pointing fingers.

Since when do we wait "until the bodies are cold" before condemning those responsible for a massacre?

If it turns out this was just an enormous coincidence and the two snipers had nothing to do with Black Lives Matter at all, I will retract all my posts and apologize.  But I think it's evident enough what happened that there's no need to wait around for a final confirmation.
