Shock and Awe

That four were shot at once in Detroit wasn’t shocking; that they were all uniformed and armed was. [More]
Yes, it is shocking that someone would attack armed targets. It is highly unusual and rare.

There's a lesson there somewhere...

Possible lesson plan;
What passes for "security" in this country, is in most cases, smoke, mirrors, willful ignorance, and wishful thinking.

Going after police officers does show complete contempt for the law--or, maybe, people have had enough of the police abusing their "authoritah".

Did the shooter kick in the door and yell "Search warrant!" as he opened up?
Todd Blair. Never forget.
Rucsh Limbaugh had a quote from te Kennedy's widow about how he never would have engaged in harmful political speech He always found the good in everyone. Then he played a tape of Kennedy saying conservative Robert Bork's America would mean women having to get back-alley abortions, blacks sitting at segregated restaurant tables and police breaking into people's homes in the middle of the night. Bork did not make it onto the Supreme Court.
