If only they had a law like 594........ Honestly, no. This is not going to end well.

I am actually impressed that the story didn't go all panic mode in the article. Stated what happened and kept on going with other stuff that was happening. No media frenzy panic writing, just journalism.
But yhea, sucks for those 2 cops, but it's also going to suck for Ferguson if they can't get that under control.

Collectively this sucks. We do not need the targeting of Law Enforcement in this country. They have a tough enough time as it is.

I lied, 220 yards away according to Fox News. **Witnesses told the paper they believed the gunshots came from the top of the hill about 220 yards from the station.** http://www.foxnews.com/us/2015/03/12/2- ... epartment/

Among them a 300 yard shot is considered "Point Blank". Perhaps tough with an AR-15 but not for a ood 30 cal bolt action rifle.

But that would then change the theme of the shooting from gang/retribution to long range sniper/assassination. If it was from 220 yards, then that puts a whole new spin on it... Think grassy knoll..

Sharpton and Holder are 100% at fault.
On the audio you can hear, and Im assuming, an officer screaming in pain.
Within seconds of the shooting .....A protester yells:
"Acknowlegment 9 months ago woulda kept that from happening."
