Six Philadelphia officers shot in active standoff with gunman holed up in house

DJDuck

“At least six Philadelphia police officers were shot Wednesday afternoon in an active standoff with a gunman holed up in a North Philly house.

A large police presence responded to a shooting incident at about 4:30 p.m. local time in a residential area of the Nicetown section of the city. One male shooter was still inside a residence in what police described as an active situation.

A police spokesperson told NBC News that the incident began when an officer attempted to serve a warrant at the address.”

Rats aren't even waiting for the shooting to be over before they try and exploit it for political gain.

Just a prediction Bob. I think we will find that no gun control proposal would have kept this perp from acquiring a gun.

BTW it is reported that none of the cops that were shot have life threatening injuries.

The cops were likely running away, on their knees, with their hands in the air.

The shooter wants to be a rocket surgeon, I'm sure.

Too bad there wasn’t a good guy with a gun there to stop this.

I find it appalling that some locals were standing on the borders of the action mocking the COPS as some were being shot at and risking their lives.

Thanks dems.

That is amazing. Inner city shootings are usually front page headlines for weeks on end.

When 5 cops are shot?

And if this had been a Trump supporter who had done this shooting you damn fucking right it still be a headline story.

The reaction to this from the left is pretty telling about their credibility

"Ban assault rifles, but maybe it's not so bad if a few cops get murdered with one"

I realize the futility of responding to this sort of meme, but anti-fascist groups have been around longer than Barack Obama has been alive. George Orwell was shot in the throat during the Spanish Civil War as an antifa fighter, for example

Relevant Orwell quote

One could not have a better example of the moral and emotional shallowness of our time, than the fact that we are now all more or less pro Stalin. This disgusting murderer is temporarily on our side, and so the purges, etc., are suddenly forgotten.

War on cops didn't start with Obama either.
