Two LA County Sheriff’s Deputies, one male and one female, were just ambushed and shot in the head while sitting in their patrol car in Compton.
Both are in surgery as I type this. The ambush was caught on surveillance camera.

my friend posted on facebook, i guess he knows them.
hopefully they survive the surgery

An eyewitness says protesters showed up at the hospital and tried to force their way into the emergency room where these two deputies were undergoing surgery.  Reported on ABC7 news.

Further, they were blocking the emergency room entrance. That's a "shoot on sight" offense, IMO.

I'm sure the media and public officials will soon assure us that this has nothing to do with recent protests and hey look! was that a boogaloo boi over there!

Good luck blaming the bois when there are videos like this:

Don't tell me these people are anything but thugs.

I'm not going to post what I originally wrote.  These people need to be harshly dealt with.

Calling those cretins "thugs" is being unfair to thugs the world over. These creeps are lower than thugs. As our DIs used to tell us during Army Basic Training, "Lower than whale [____] at the bottom of the ocean."

If by "thugs" you mean domestic terrorists then I can agree with you.

"Protesters."

Protesters, right?

Expressing their grievances.

Friggin' terrible, that. 

Friggin' sneaks.

Best wishes for the recovery of the Officers.

You know, for people who claim to believe the police are just looking for any excuse to kill a black man, they sure seem to be providing a lot of excuses.... And for some reason aren't dead.

Here’s the reaction of an eyewitness to the ambush of two Deputies shot in the head in #Compton. The victims are in the background. No one is going to help them. Vote like your life depends on it. #BlueLivesMatter

Trump has called for the shooter's head. This is what Biden had to say about it:

Weapons of war have no place in our communities.

We need to ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines.

Let's see, I can't tell how many times the attempted murderer shot, but given how quickly he ran after pointing the gun, I'm guessing it was less than 10 times.

Yeah, Biden's response seems about right.

1) Used a pistol, so the "assault weapons" has no relationship to this shooting
2) Used less than 10 rounds, so the "high-capacity magazines" has no relationship to this shooting.

Basically, it's "something bad happened; we must use it to further our desired policies!" whether they relate to the attack or not.

Someone pulled the pullstring coming out of his back and the record just happened to be on assault weapons need to be banned at that point. The dems are just lucky it wasn't "There's a snake in my boot"

This is, apparently, the sort of common sense gun control Democratic voters want to hear from moderate Democrats like Joe "They're going to put y'all back in chains" Biden, and his Gun Czar, Francis "Hell yes" O'Rourke.

Re Biden's remarks as reported by Ben, Reply #11:

If a volcano erupts, blame  assault weapons or Trump or the current bête noire.  Or bête blanc, whichever.

The logic or illogic of it doesn't matter.  It's the number of psychological impacts you can make that does.

Some famous high government official pointed this out in the twentieth century, but that's ancient history with no relevance to today.

 excellent work!
in the eighties, everyone who killed a cop committed "suicide".

Wasn't sure if this should have gone in the Polymer80 thread or here.

Two Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies badly wounded in an ambush shooting last year sued a Nevada company Monday for making the parts for a “ghost gun” used in the attack.

The lawsuit alleges Polymer80 Inc. negligently and unlawfully sold an “untraceable home-assembled gun kit” that resulted in the September attack.

The lawsuit was filed on behalf of deputies Claudia Apolinar and Emmanuel Perez-Perez, who were shot and wounded Sept. 12 as they sat in their patrol car at a Metro rail station in the Los Angeles suburb of Compton.

The attacker fired through the car’s passenger window. Apolinar and Perez-Perez were shot in the head and arms. Neither has been able to return to work, according to the lawsuit.

Investigators said a gun Murray threw from a car window while he was being pursued matched the one used to shoot the deputies.

That weapon was built from a Polymer80 kit, model PF940c, according to the lawsuit.

weird how the two post collide ...

 Anyway, I'm glad they are well enough to sue, hope they lose anyway.

That was always an obvious lie.  At every protest, you can see people getting in the face of cops.  None of them seem to be afraid the police will actually kill them. 

If the police were out to kill them off camera, there would either be a large number of bodies found in fields in the news or a concrete shortage.

Which brings to mind this meme

Yes... thugs and rioters don't appear to be afraid of cops... at all.

They know the democratic party has their back.
