Just another day in PTSD America, keep the people afraid and confused. It could be a false flag or it could be legit. After Ferguson (Mike Brown) and the killing of Eric Garner, people are starting to take matters into their own hands. This could be a legit incident of a man retaliating and encouraging others to do so as well. If this is the case, and becomes a trend, then we are in for some bad times. All it would take is for a couple incidents to happen before there is an all out war between LEO's and us. And this is definitely possible, because in inner city areas where gangs are prevalent, there is already this mentality.

There are multiple chessboards being played right now, and this fits into the homeland/civil rights chessboard. I don't personally think it was a false flag, I think it was legit and they will use this to slam the hammer down. "Never let a crisis go to waste" - Rahm Emanuel

Let's examine the facts:

1. The suspect in NY was supposedly acting in revenge for the Garner case.

2. Both officers killed were minorities

3. The suspect in NY also killed his girlfriend for some reason even though all of his anger seems to be directed at the police

Seems a little strange to me that someone upset about racially motivated violence form police officers wouldn't think that a white officer might make a better target. Nah, this is some horse shit. I'll eat my hat if they don't try to push new legislation or something because of this. They did this. Whether they pulled the trigger or got someone else to do it, they knew this was coming. This is just so they can point and go "look how dangerous our jobs are! We put our lives on the line every day! This is why we're so quick to shoot and this is why we need more guns!"

But people will gobble it up and we'll lose another right somewhere.

You forget to mention that in the NY Post article about the shoting, it mentions that the two officers shot were participating in a terrorist drill.

As much as I agree I think it's equally as important that we don't take this bait either. If we make him a hero we just give the pigs more ammo against us. "see! These conspiracy nuts even support a murderer!". I think we should chalk it up as a victory and just watch it very closely because there is almost certainly going to be more to this story than what we know right now.

The time for these kind of politics have passed in my mind. Its fight or flight time from these fuckin "shoot first ask questions later" pigs.

I just feel like that's a dangerous mindset. It feeds right into their agenda. They want people to fight back, just not everyone. If little isolated incidents like this keep occurring, they can paint themselves as brave heroes and justify spending even more money on military hardware. I think if we want to see any real change we need to get more people to get brave at once. If we got enough people to wake the fuck up we wouldn't need to kill anybody. Unfortunately, that's a bit of a pipe dream at this point and it seems things are about to start getting very much worse before they ever start getting better.

It's all too late. Doesn't matter. Cops are killing people and getting off the hook. There was a line and this is so far over it that it's war in my book.

I'll go ahead and just leave this here

And I heard there was an anti-terror drill going on at the time, which is their signature. Need a cite.

Yep.

Gunman executes 2 NYPD cops in Garner ‘revenge’

Officers Wenjian Liu and Rafael Ramos were working overtime as part of an anti-terrorism drill in Bedford-Stuyvesant just before 3 p.m. when they were shot point-blank in the head by lone gunman Ismaaiyl Brinsley, 28, who had addresses in Georgia, Maryland and Brooklyn.

Obvious false flag is obvious.

It has always been like it. Heck, the Sony North Korea hack was a distraction in itself. I even think that the torture report was a distraction (c'mon, do you really believe they didn't know all this time?).

So yeah, your idea seems pretty plausible to me.

Maybe because the sony hack story was full of holes and way too many people started questioning it, they decided some story should take its place until people forget about it.

So I think it's probably legit, but the story is quite obviously being blown out of proportions

are we going to talk about how now NY wants to arm all police vehicles with bulletproof windows ?

More than one thing happens in the world at once.

Yes, but you must admit that these past few weeks have been particularly crazy. There is SO much going on. It's making me dizzy; every other second there is something new to focus my outrage on.

Meh. It's only because of the Internet that we know about so much stuff. So it's the same amount of events and severity, only hearing about them more.

Buddy, I have been on the internet for 20 years! Never have we been so overloaded with emergencies and breaking news waiting to happen.

Oh man, this is going to be the new copypasta.

Meh. It's only because of a massive propaganda effort to flood the internet with american (and other) propaganda. No reason to think governmental and large corporate interests, would ever use their immense wealth to promote agenda friendly messages and guide discourse through the use of outrage, fear and terror.

Funny how "things happen" at really good times to serve as perfect distraction from other things happening.

Oh, people are focusing on the elections and trying to pay attention to all of the bullshit we're spewing and trying to expose our lies? Not any more! Now people are worried about ebola even though it's not anywhere near an "outbreak" in most of the world. Oh the elections are over? We can stop talking about ebola now. Oh, the people are pissed off about the torture report? Not any more! Now people are pissed off about The Interview! Oh shit, our Interview plan is falling apart and people are starting to figure out we probably lied about the whole thing! Not any more! By the end of the day people are gonna be talking about the two brave officers that were "assassinated" by some lunatic!

yeah, but who got sent home on Dancing with the Stars???

No idea, was too busy reading the latest news on The Interview with Seth Rogan and James Franco. Then I got a little tied up watching my government-approved reality shows and eating my government-approved dinner.

Well it's not like normal people can't concentrate on more than one thing at a time. This sub is the only one I've seen that gets distracted so easily.

Really? You must not visit the front page or you must be unsubscribed from all of the defaults.

I go to the real world for my news and discussions of important matters.
