Most are gonna go for the denial. It's the way people are wired. It's usually the best choice. Genocide is unusual.
Maybe. But, thinking that military or police have some super human abilities and that a civilian intent on killing you is always going to be unable to do so is a good way to get your police/military killed.

1. Not always incapable, just usually.
2. (bolded part) I've been trying to say that this is what you don't have--not because they don't have guns, but because even if they did, it's a desperate/suicidal course that few are willing to choose.

If your alternatives are both nearly certain death, choose the one furthest away.

The Tony Montana route gets you -- and your family -- killed, instantly.

I never heard of that guy in my life till a couple days ago. Now I follow him on Twitter. I marvel at the hate.

Talk about capitalizing on tragedy.

This guy is truly satanic.

IMO

Watching the service in Dallas for those five police officers slain in Dallas.
Presidents Obama and Bush are in attendance with their first ladies along with VP Biden and his wife.

Rest in peace and sincere condolences to their families, friends and fellow law enforcement officers.

Often lost in all back in forth is the fact that the Dallas P.D. has reformed itself under the able leadership of Chief Brown and should serve as an example as how it's done to the surrounding communities and other police departments around the country.

He's reciting Stevie Wonder's "I'll be Lovin' You" right now.

Wonderful eulogy by President Obama.

He ought to be going to Baton Rouge and St. Paul too. Bad optics.
