11:23ET 3 Officers are now confirmed dead.

Everybody in all walks of life, this killings must stop. I value life more than anything and the fact that taking a police officer's life over the FEELINGS of the two recent police shootings is UNACCEPTABLE.

May god be in their prayers! Please bless them and acknowledge in your condolences.

It's a shame the things which are becoming normal; terror attacks in Europe is nearly a monthly thing, and police officers being picked off in the US is almost a weekly thing.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Woman called the police saying her nephew is involved, requested to meet an officer at a church. Commander screamed not to go alone and ordered a perimeter setup around it.

Video of shooting:

 

3 officers confirmed dead now, incident involved Sheriff's (I can't remember what agency) and Cyprus Police.

Witness video on phone showed at least 2 shooters.

Witness says it started with a perp on perp shooting that police were responding to, then shots were fired at police

Weekly thing here in America, got used to it by now unfortunately.

Weekly thing? Please. The attacks on LE and the anti-LE rhetoric flying around right now isn't something that has been seen before.

Even in the 60s and 70s, attacks on LEOs were not that brazen.

Terrible, but I hate to say I'm not too surprised. If all that's shown through the media is officers killing people and all that's discussed by community and national leaders is perceived issues of law enforcement with race its a ticking time bomb for people to act out violently. With guns, knives, vehicles even bombs (I read they were sending in an EOD bot to check the slain suspect's body for explosives). The rhetoric towards police in the United States even up to our highest officials has gotten absolutely despicable.

 

If you were being told officers were driving around wildly looking for racial minorities or anyone of any group to murder for no reason (as the media & social media outlets seem to have a vested interest in making people believe), it would absolutely justify a violent response. The problem is, thats simply not the truth.

but what I do know is that no fucking civilian needs a fully automatic rifle for ANY reason, or a handgun to carry around everywhere.

And you don't even know that. Fully automatic firearms have been illegal to manufacture for commercial sale since 1984, and anyone who does purchase one manufactured before then (very few, since the cheapest cost $5,000) have to undergo a 6 month background investigation.

Unfortunately, you're about as educated about these issues as the politicians creating the laws.

I don't understand why anyone would need a semi-automatic killing machine either.
