Dallas pigs just can't stop making people so angry at them that they become assassination targets (RIP Micah Johnson).

For some residents, the brutal manner in which the police said Officer Burks was killed called to mind a 2016 shooting, when a heavily armed sniper gunned down five officers in downtown Dallas during a protest against fatal police shootings. That shooting remains the deadliest single attack on law enforcement since Sept. 11.

Police propaganda is such a spectacle in this country. 5 people is the deadliest attack since 9/11

[–] came_apart_at_Kmart@hexbear.net 32 points 2 months ago

9/11 was an attack on law enforcement, because when heroic Officer Joe "Joey Two Meats" Avelino saw a video of the second plane hitting the towers, he fell off the toilet and got his head stuck between the toilet tank and the wall. after screaming for assistance, 2 other officers (Sgt. Anthony "Tony the Neck" Braggadocio, Officer Donato "Fat Donny" Lorenzo) came into the bathroom and tactically deployed themselves to affect a rescue of the distressed officer.

in trying to dislodge his head, they both had heart attacks and died. Officer Avelino was stuck there with his two fallen brothers, ultimately aspirating his own piss and dying as well.

at the time, this was the single deadliest attack on law enforcement in the US and the worst toilet involved disaster in a Staten Island police station since 1993, after a retirement party for Lieutenant Carmine "Chicken Carm" Mozzarello involving a 6 foot meatball sandwich.

party-sicko officer-down lets-fucking-go

The suspect, identified by officials as Corey Cobb-Bey biden-point It's CORN POP!

Officer Burks was a former high school math teacher

Hey teach I'm having a bit of trouble with this equation:

The man, who officials said appeared to record the encounter on his cellphone, briefly spoke to Officer Burks, then pulled out a handgun and shot him dead.

It was unclear on Saturday what might have motivated the attack.

lmao what kind of putty-brained journalist shitbag do you have to be to write these statements. yeah I'm sure the conversation's contents are not being shared with you because they make the cop look too good

Officer Burke was shot and killed while sitting in his patrol vehicle on a break.

hahaha the photo caption misspells his name

It was unclear on Saturday what might have motivated the attack.

Definitely not centuries of assassins, thieves, rapists, and killers preying on the population. That's certainly not a factor, especially after the men who sicced assassins on Breonna Taylor in her sleep were completely absolved of responsibility this week.

They're going to go fucking berserk. This is one of their greatest, and least rational or realistic, fears.

That footage of Johnson juking around a couple of pillars like he's going for a tacnuke in CoD is pure kino. One of the only times I've ever seen them pigmask-off being hunted like animals and totally unable to defend themselves.

Lmao the r/news thread got locked by reddit-logo mods because users kept making and upvoting comments mocking the death by using the same language media uses to describe cops murdering civilians. Honestly surprised to see it, maybe the bootlickers and their bots are away for the holiday weekend.

"“I know that the word ‘ambush’ has been thrown around in the last 24 hours or so,” he said. “That’s not what happened here. Officer Burks was executed.”"

LMAO, so they know what execution means when it's one of their own, but justifying Breonna Taylor's death, or Sonya Massey's aren't...

Fuck them all rot in hell, none of them are heroes yet they will be paraded as such.
