Hours after a van drove into a crowd of people in Barcelona, Spain, Spanish police say they've thwarted a second terrorist attack.
Authorities say the two attacks are linked.
Police say five suspects wearing explosives were killed after a shootout with security forces in the Catalan coastal town of Cambrils located about 70 miles southwest of Barcelona. Six civilians and a police officer were injured, police say.

yup. with a litany of complaints against him already in his short time on the force.Nukedog wrote:That was actually a fresh off the boat Somalian cop.

(1) Prove that this kid deliberately targeted people with the intent of running them over.
(2) Prove that the alt-right encourages it's members to murder.
And while you are there, consider that I could *easily* show that:
(3) Antifa deliberately target people and try to kill them (they showed up with baseball bats, lead pipes, and sent plenty of innocent people to the ER, including one guy who is now blind from an acid attack).
(4) Antifa literally encourages political violence against the left, is paid to perpetrate it by the DNC and Soros, and promote that violence in their literature and social media.
So even if you could prove (1) and (2) (which you cannot), I would still just fall back on (3) and (4) to show that this was more like an ISIS jihadi getting preemptively run over than anything else. If (1) and (2) were true, the best you could rationally do is condemn both sides, but you know you won't really do that.
The police here don't let protesters walk around tooled up to fight. Both sides would be read the riot act and the mounted police would disperse them. You can't even have solid wooden placard handle(has to be cardboard) never mind baseball bat and crash helmet.
Seems like your police prefer to shoot unarmed Ausralian ladies rather than keep the peace.

And he shot across his partner--something even drunken hunters know better than to do.

Get out of here with your white privelage. It's racist to assume Somalians should have to have the same standards as Americans.

BBC didn't even cover it. Pointless killings I'm The US are too common to cover them all.
