Extreme sorrow and anger is what I'm feeling this morning.

Re: Shots fired at BLM protest in Dallas
I am heartbroken for his wife and daughters. His older daughter was a classmate and team mate of my daughter's and I've coached her in softball for many years. His younger daughter is a Daddy's girl. I can't even imagine what they are going through this morning.
I am not and have never been a LEO. My avatar is in honor of my friend, Dallas Police Sargent Michael Smith, who was murdered along with four other officers in Dallas on 7.7.2016.

No links but heard that DPD took out the shooter with a remote detonated device using the robot.

Last I heard was that it was a self inflicted gun shot.

Re: Shots fired at BLM protest in Dallas
Yeah, seems to be conflicting info floating around. I heard it on NBC5 after the press conference but they also said it wasn't ready to go out on the air so I guess it slipped out without being confirmed.

Re: Shots fired at BLM protest in Dallas
DPD Chief stated during press conference on Fox news that device was detonated:
http://www.foxnews.com/us/2016/07/08/da ... -says.htmlThe suspect was killed when police sent a robot into the area in the El Centro Community College parking garage to detonate a bomb after negotiations went nowhere. Before he died, he had claimed that explosives had been set around the city, and much of downtown Dallas was locked down while police searched before determining there were no bombs.

The left lies about everything. Truth is a liberal value, and truth is a conservative value, but it has never been a left-wing value. People on the left say whatever advances their immediate agenda. Power is their moral lodestar; therefore, truth is always subservient to it. - Dennis Prager

I share your feelings of sorrow and anger, as well as sadness as to what our country is devolving into.
