its good for BLM thy he denounced it but his message was still the same and plenty of BLM social media posts are advocating what he did. I'm sorry BLM is not as peaceful as you'd like to think it is.

yea i understand that he probably wasnt tactically in charge at all at that point but the news outlets can wait imo. cops have been killed, still under fire, and there could be bombs around the area.

Just seemed odd at the time.

he did seem like a good guy overall

Chad is a racist. Don't really care if you agree with me or not.

Then again you're equating a man lawfully carrying a gun to ducking bombing terrorists in Boston

Show up to a protest in camouflage with a rifle where shots are fired and cops are killed, and you too may be inconvenienced.

The fact that even after the analogy was explained multiple times already and you still are spewing this is ridiculous man. Get a grip

I see where you are coming from, but I think that there was such hysteria, and still so many civilians out in the streets in the surrounding area, he felt like it was neccessary to calm everyone down as much as possible.

'Not knowing' makes people go f'n crazy.

I guess I thought it was odd because he gave off the notion that he was getting back into the "fight" and that he was needed. If he was that needed in the situation, I figure he might hold off on the presser.

"White male carrying an AR-15. Here are some photos of the person of interest." what would be your response to this?

I'm just laughing at the notion of the media having restraint... because I misread your post.

Because the police force worrying about an active shooter situation, in which 12 of their colleagues have been shot and/or killed, and the open threat of explosives hidden downtown was taking away from their ability to go on camera and say they’re sorry about giving a picture of a man matching the description of the shooter they had at the time carrying an AR-15 because he was not guilty of anything?


A) the DPD sent his pic out via social media.
Seen here




They easily could have sent out a follow up.

B) the police chief was giving interviews every hour it seemed. Stop acting like everyone was too busy

Thats a good point. He probably is very recognizable in the area. Seeing one of your leaders calm and in control probably helps.

He's still in charge of his officers and SWAT team. Seems like DPD used their own robot also. It was weird, but he wanted to get all of the information in and out that he could

Never in my life have i complained about a white person of interest not being cleared fast enough on national television in a chaotic situation. Never. But because this one individual was black (forgetting the long ar-15, camo wearing, military wannabe characteristics of the actual shooter) we are supposed to lend a sympathetic ear to this totally uncalled for situation. eat a dick lester.

Boo hoo your name wasn't cleared quickly

I don't care what the law in TX is, common sense tells you not to bring a rifle to a racially driven protest involving the killing of people
