Don't assume they were necessarily working for the cause of BLM, even in their own minds. This seems like it's designed to push a volatile situation over the edge to me.

of course they weren't working with BLM, but they purposely did it during a march because....?????? to turn public perception against BLM or wtf??!! what does this accomplish. I am anxious to hear their reasoning.
 
WTF. Yup they're saying still negotiating with another. They've said the end is coming. Said they're going to kill more. They aren't saying they've for sure caught all the suspects.
 
Police Chief:

--Still don't believe they have all suspects.
--Shooter captured in interrogation. "The end is near. We're going to kill more of you. Bombs all over Dallas..."


...fucking great...

They usually do pretty good live news coverage surprisingly. It's just when they switch to opinion that it becomes shit.

That's whats getting me, they just had a good 20 minutes between a couple experts showing the Obama speech and talking about the events leading to today and how more leaders need to step up and hold these police shootings accountable and work with the black community. I was absolutely floored by what I was hearing from them.
 
4 suspects, maybe more. Two from the car chase, one female coming from near the garage, and one in negotiations in the garage.

Garage suspect claiming there are bombs all over downtown :\
 
This is getting more insane ... normally, I would say that the bombs thing is a fantasy -- but this guy was way too competent in hurting and killing, I'm afraid he may have actually planted something.
 
Damn it, I would not put it past them that there actually are bombs littered through downtown Dallas. These guys look like professionals and have planned this thing.
 
As usual, a few criminals completely delegitimize a very meaningful protest with even more violence. Jesus christ i fucking hate life so much.

Yeah. I was about to say that bomb thing has to be bullshit but after that video I'm really not so sure.

I hate to say it but I have this nagging thought in the back of my head that maybe they are white because they're not dead.

If these guys actually had a plan to get out, using the BLM protest as cover is smart from a despicable point of view. Regardless of what background and ethnic group they are, if they escaped we all know who gets the brunt of the blame.
 
If they still don't have all of the suspects, what was all of that stuff about the threat to the public being over????
 
How was something like this put together so quickly. They couldn't have known about the protest for more than a day. They must have had all of this ready waiting for the perfect moment, seriously fucking scary.
 
Well if the bombs thing turns out to be true then there goes the theory about the shooters wanting to only target cops. Incoming ISIS speculation but it's probably a bluff.
 
apparently they are still in a standoff with one guy, according to the chief at this press conference.

2 of them were trying to get away in a benz and they got them. but a 3rd is being negotiated with

Because there would be a large number of police congregated in a contained area? Because it would stoke flames of unrest? Because they wanted to use a large and confusing assembly of people to be able to hide in plain sight?

There are lots of possible reasons why. Those are just a few. Impossible to speculate without more knowledge of who these people are.
