Well, we can agree on this. This an awful, intolerable crime. I'm sick to death of these mass shootings, and I don't know what's to be done about them. Obviously a person who could do this crime would not be put off by gun laws. I am utterly at a loss at how this sort of criminality -- and there's doubtless worse to come -- is to be stopped.

Clearly we're entering a time when the line between a crazy person on a rampage and terrorism is being erased. An attack on policemen like this is an attack on the means by which our society enforces the laws that keep us secure AND ensure our freedoms. There's a chilling similarity between the shootings of police officers in Pittsburgh, the DC sniper shootings, the Ft. Hood shootings, and this crime.

A few late developments - apparently the suspect was very well known in Arkansas, and a long sentence he was serving was shortened by then Gov, Huckabee. That might have been one way to prevent this.

Also, I don't know that this is a mass shooting as much as a premeditated attack or gang-style hit.

There may be very little "random"about this when all is known. It seems likely that this is not a "terror" attack in the sense of an attack on the state, or culture, or all of us. The suspect was a long-time criminal with a lengthy record and history, as well as mental derangement - a lethal combination apparently ignored or downplayed by some in authority with the power to act on it.

"Clearly we're entering a time when the line between a crazy person on a rampage and terrorism is being erased."

Just because you would like something to be true in your politically correct fantasyland does not make it so.

I hope the cops find this scumbag and soon. Apparently, they ID'd him already. And I hope that it does not end well for the suspect.

a good argument for capital punishment.

What I hate most about Commies (not goo goo marxists) is they defend murderers such as Mumia, Leonard Peltier, and worst of all Hurricane Carter, a triple murderer who got sprung (eventually) by Bob Dylan championing him 9 years after the killings.
And if Mumia and Peltier are innocent, then so was Jack Ruby.
You see, it wasn't Jack Ruby in the police station, it was Little Bo Peep.

She lost her sheep, so she decided to shoot Oswald in the garage of the station.

... boy, it's a good thing Tim McVeigh was white, otherwise a campaign would have been mounted to oppose his execution.

There was a demonstration, though-- but a small one.

For some reason McVeigh didn't merit the attention that MuMu Jamal got and is still getting from the Liberal Readers of the world.
The demonstration was that the Warden better get the job done right quick and no lollygaggin'

Unfortunately there was also a counter-demonstration outside the prison against capital punishment. Of course the same people wanted Matthew Shephard's murderers executed.

When the turd is found - one hopes the
attending police officers are crack shots at
putting the turd out of his misery.

Even when in uniform, maybe especially so, police officers should be vigilant. There are many criminals and would be Active Shooters out in our society. Important to be ready at all times, even for the private citizens.
