I think there were more officers when they raided Trump.
So, how we feeling about 5am no-knock warrants today?
I’m joking, we have no useful facts.
Yea, but Democracy hung in the balance that day.I think there were more officers when they raided Trump.
If this wasn’t a situation where foreign terrorists would have been sitting back and taking notes, then I don’t know what is.
Meaning?
Damn. This article says 3 officers down. When the feds roll, especially marshals, they usually go loaded for bear. I don’t know about tipped off but there might have been a lookout or even surveillance in todays day and age.Just heard about this as well. Super early, not many details out yet.
Sources: Marshal killed, numerous officers hurt in east Charlotte shooting
"Numerous" officers were shot Monday afternoon in an east Charlotte neighborhood, police say.www.wsoctv.com
Fox reported that the homeowner said they had to take that sniper out of the house, he must have been injured.Rumor mill … felon weapons charge … rolled up and engaged the first guy on the front steps ((handgun) who didn’t last long. Then shots came from inside with a second shooter (long gun) who had the high ground. Supposedly CMPD had a shooter setup in a house across the street trying to get
Meaning that 70 or so law enforcement vehicles were called to this scene today when, in my opinion, if this would have been executed differently, all of those resources could have been used elsewhere.
Diversionary tactics is what I was referring to.
Most major departments have contingencies for that sort of thing and it is regularly discussed. Calling in other agencies, reserve officers and that sort of thing.Meaning that 70 or so law enforcement vehicles were called to this scene today when, in my opinion, if this would have been executed differently, all of those resources could have been used elsewhere.

This. I don't wish it on ANY brother or sister, but many, many times I read about "US Marshal Shot" or "US Marshal Killed" it is an initial press release and ends up being a local LEO (or LEOs ) who is/are deputized on a local Task Force. I hear of MANY more local LEOs shot/killed on local TFs than actual Deputy United States Marshals.Could there have been CMPD on the task force?
All I know about these "operations" is what I've seen on TV. But many times they have "local" officers assigned to these task forces
I would suggest that the 70 or so LEO didn't show up until AFTER the bad guy had killed 3 officers.
Should they have had hug and called it a day?
You nailed it.This.

It's all rumor mill and early in the game so it might (LIKELY) will change but (putting several sources together) possibly an actual DUSM and two State personnel? killed(?) A CMPD officer is one wounded/critical. (?)
Marshall’s will look for local guys too if they are needed.Just hit me … why were US Marshalls serving a Felony Weapons Charge warrant? If the Feds are looking the person might not be just a local thug. It would be interesting to hear the story behind the warrant.
You don’t think they’ve already analyzed Pavlov Pig and his response to hell and back?If I were part of a foreign terrorist organization, and was watching this unfold today, I would definitely be thinking that if shooting some law enforcement officers is going to spark that kind of response, then how about sending out numerous members to various locations drawing resources away from a main very large target.
You misunderstood my point.

It was one individual subject as far as I have ascertained. In my opinion, those US Marshals would be at home with their families had this whole mess been carried out differently.

I’m not sure what I posted that triggered you. Three, for now, innocent individuals got killed today and I personally think it shouldn’t have happened based on what I have read here and on the news.
Was serving a warrant to one individual at a residence worth three lives?
Maybe you need to tighten yours up.I think you need to loosen the tin foil hat
Federal charges I imagineJust hit me … why were US Marshalls serving a Felony Weapons Charge warrant? If the Feds are looking the person might not be just a local thug. It would be interesting to hear the story behind the warrant.
Incoming prayersThe CMPD officer in critical condition has passed per the latest reports. He was a friend of a friend.
It is a shame that their felonies did not warrant sitting in prison. I hope this is not a situation where they were released awaiting trial, and/or illegal cartel members or something similar that should have prevented all of this.

Create a little pandemonium like that and actually snipe a few response teams for good measure and watch the hilarity ensue.Who's going to cross cover a city like Charlotte? And what if 1 operator puts 1 or more rounds through a school window in the surrounding towns? Just fire some rounds at a distance and leave. Then what does that leave open? Major downtown structures, event venues, everything.
