    equating a cop acting stupidly by shooting someone to premeditated murder is dumb

    They're looking for the wrong person, the person in the picture did not do this. Whoever did this obviously needs to be apprehended ASAP. But if they are looking for the person in this pic, they will be man-hunting the wrong person (especially when DPD reports the shooter(s) was in an elevated position).

    What I am saying is this: I personally wouldn't want anybody killed, but at the same time, wars are sometimes necessary.

    America won't be free with war, and what happened. Slavery was abolished because of war.

    I am in favor of slavery being abolished but I'm also sad that so many people dead over it in the civil war.

    You wouldn't? Knowing that the trigger happy 24/7 news cycle is passing your photo around calling you a suspect? Seems like the safer option

    Texas open carry is crazy... Can you imagine seeing that? An AR-15 is a war weapon..

    I can't tell if you're being your usual troll self or not, but this "war" can have no positive outcome if it continues to escalate.

    So the person of interest is the guy in the camo with the rifle and he's the one that turned himself in?

    Yeah but how do you do that without coming across as threatening. I mean given the situation a cop sees you with an assault rifle and they don't know if it's loaded or not.

    Whoever runs that social media account needs to get canned ASAP. Just ruined an innocent man's life.
