I can't speak for the others that asked about it but as for myself I'm the type that likes to know the whole story. The reason he was stopped in no way takes away from his actions. They were deplorable. I was simply curious as to what he did wrong to warrant being stopped. The story given doesn't jive (from what I saw, anyway) with the video.
So a guy tries to murder 2 cops and the most pressing discussion is why he was stopped in the first place?

Isn't this true? The first thing members on this site try to do is find something that the police did wrong when the guy gets out with a semi automatic rifle and opens up.
I bet rambone, jbombelli and mrjarrell made contributions to the shooters burial fund.
Oh, and that was the furthest thing that I have seen of being "suicide by cop." That $h!t bag was trying to murder the officers.
Looks like two of them (oops I didnt spot the left one when I marked this). the backside of the left one shows DO NOT ENTER form the cruisers perspective.
Yep, the first thing took 10 replies before someone you interpreted as blaming the cops.
So would you be satisfied if he said "murder-suicide" instead of "suicide"? It was said because the guy fired at poliec and then appeared to "Tebow" as was mentioned and await the onslaught of led. That is where the suicide by police comment came in. Yeesh.
Posting in these type of threads is always tricky. It gets old having to preface comments with "of course this is awful and I hope the police are fine, but...". I think it can safely be assumed that no one here has advocated in defense of this idiot. To me, questioning the stop isn't to suggest the police were randomly pulling people over, but more of a "it didn't seem like the guy did anything wrong and yet this was how he reacted" type of thing.
Frank, that is a valid angle to this story. You know everything is analyzed to the Nth degree on INGO. It questions the recorded account of the event, not the actions of the police.

There's plenty of people here that "advocate in defense of this idiot." Their hatred for the police doesn't allow them to do anything else.
And yes, they're trying to make it look as if the officers were randomly pulling people over, so they can blame the officers for causing the shooting.

WTF do you want me to talk about then? Should I be tearing my clothes and wailing at the top of my lungs at the horror of his actions? Should I be condemning him to a deeper hell than his current lodgings?So a guy tries to murder 2 cops and the most pressing discussion is why he was stopped in the first place?

No, he can't... But it won't stop him from posting.Hrm. Can you quote them? I must be reading a different thread.

I know, I'll go on a hunger strike in protest of his actions.

I vote for tearing of clothes only if you post the video.

Hunger strike takes too long and it's no fun.
Thank you for your consideration.
Does anyone know what type of rifle was he using? AR or AK?
the article said he has a 40 round 'magazine' on the rifle. Anyone know how many rounds he fired?
looks like when he kneel the rifle may have jammed or he was re-racking it?
were the officers wearing vest?
from the report one officer was shot in hand, not sure about the other.
