ZERO articles name the suspect. ZERO.

CONVICTED FELON, What is the reason for keeping his name out of the broadcast. ...did this felon serve his full sentence the first time or did the parole board let out on 'good behavior" ?

[kidwichita]

People are getting desperate. This will get worse.

I’m watching the police chief briefing and it was 8 officers shot and 3 US Marshals killed.

Since the warrant was for possession of a firearm by a felon where was the ATF?

[Infantry]

In other words, decriminalize the possession of firearms for a felon. Once you have done your time in prison and paid fines, you should have your liberties fully restored.

How many of the criminals at that location were out on bail? No cash bail?

[yjjhxic]

Tragic and senseless deaths! I am so sorry for the loss of these brave law enforcement officers!

Why not wait and arrest homie when he goes to the store to get a pack of Newports and a 40? Why raid his home where he has arms, cover and backup?

[patricklee]

4 stars and he says VICTIM was shot Negative Suspect was shot

Maybe those Officers should have upheld the Oath of defending the Constitution instead of violating it

[kendallevans]

Dang $3.44 for unleaded? Here in Cali we're at $5.33!

[Airbender-klcu]

What kind of gun did the suspect have / use ?

[fabianheinrich]

This is breaking my heart. I got tears in my eyes. This hurts in just to many ways.

[Thesmokeeffect]

Wity those gas prices the suspect should be far away

[MaryAnn_Nolan]

My condolences to all deceased and injured. Prayers to the families

[greggreg]

Very tough job being a police officer these days everybody is willing to gun battle over something silly😢😢😢

[joshuastanley]

Who is suspects name and what were the charges? This stinks!

[brosifstalin]

Just saying... The Constitution doesnt say right to bear arms only if the government says its ok.

That absolutely sucks.. maybe stop the law enforcement warrior culture. People, this is only going to get worse as law enforcement thinks they are soldiers. Tactics, techniques, and procedures need to change, but what do I know?
