This is what happens when prominent figures and mainstream media continue to incite hatred and violence before facts are even out. Also fault of many people for accepting that THIS IS THE WAY for them to channel their anger, like that one disgusting pig in Page 1.

Let's not go there because then this can easily lead into politics, entertainment etc.

I do agree that people shouldn't use people are angry as an excuse.

People are accountable for their decisions and "influence" shouldn't deflect from this fact

Good luck on that.
People are already using the conspiracy theory that the elitist did this as if they'd sacrifice police officers just to take attention away from recent events

Not you..Dear God

My sister and her fiancé were at a downtown bar, started hearing the shots and managed to get out and just make it home now. THANK YOU HIGHER POWER IF YOU EXIST

Energy, please stay safe. I'm going to keep thinking of you.

I don't know where to run because businesses are turning people away in fear. I'm a few blocks from the Grayhound station hiding behind cars with my friends. We don't know whether to try and get to our cars or just wait it out because the gunmen are still loose. More cops and EMTs are at the scene now.

Stay safe! Please. We can't take anymore lives lost.

Please...

What really makes me mad is that black people get murdered by the numbers daily and most of the time it goes unnoticed.

All it takes is 1 officer to make the world stop.

You do realize that other minorities and white people are murders in numbers as well.

It's not good for any race and I have a hard time believing that you really think this is the first or second officer to have been shot this year.

The timing is what is making it such a big deal due to live coverage in Dallas.

As much as I don't see it for the All live matters statement things like this make me understand why people try to push that statement.

We should have the same level of sympathy for an officer who hasn't been deemed guilty of anything but just doing their job.

I hope they aren't seriously hurt...
Why does it feel like these racial tensions always blow up in the summer

it only becomes national news when a white cop kills a black person, black people are more likely to be shot by other black people so take that as a good thing.

Why are we putting gangbangers and thugs to the same standards as policemen who swear to uphold the law and protect Americans? That's just sad. Not to mention gangbangers are brought to justice and locked up. Not policemen.

The streets are now completely blocked until the shooter is found. We aren't allowed to leave downtown. Just got off the phone with my mom. We aren't going to move from this parking lot because everyone is suggesting we stay off the streets in case the active shooter makes a run for it and there is a gunfire exchange.

1146 police murders in 2015 : 581 whites (2.93 per million), 306 blacks (7.27 per million), 195 hispanics/latinos (3.51 per million), 24 asian/pacific islanders (1.34 per million) and 13 native americans (3.4 per million) + 27 unknown.

Be safe, again. Stay where you'll be safer.

They put their lives on the line every freakin' day to protect our communities. This is how you repay them? Shoot them for wearing a badge?

Meet the new KKK, they call themselves "Black Lives Matter" but make no mistake their goals are far from equality. #Dallas #bluelivesmatter

This is what happens when the media and our leaders validate and embolden those that want to wage a war on cops. #Dallas #Bluelivesmatter

They just started...

[Jonathan]

Yep, sounds like a sniper from that video.
