(13,081 posts)I can think of a whole lot of motives for a whole lot of people, though. Whatever the motive, they're fucking evil.

(12,644 posts)Not their modus operandi at all. For one this not only required careful tactical planning but sniping skill. ISIS recruits are typically just pissy bored youth. And I doubt their boot camp makes someone an expert sniper. That'd take years to hone and serious military training, not what you'd get from a rag tag band of marauding rapists.
Secondly, this sort of surgical strike isn't like anything ISIS has done. They'd be more likely to fire shots, get the crowds to scatter in panic and then set up off suicide bombs. Even the Paris attack was quite different with no snipers.

(4,510 posts)them was that a Nation of Islam mosque in Dallas was being threatened by armed right wingers and the new black panthers showed up to protect it. My point in all this is that people in black people in Dallas aren't really fucking around anymore.

Would not surprise me. I'd wager these were well trained judging by the results.

(86,646 posts)about that. What a perfect opportunity while persons of color are protesting to disrupt their message by this sort of horrific action. I suspect that it's white supremacists trying to start a race war.

2naSalit
(86,646 posts)that may be the case. Hatred blinds those who embrace it. I would not be surprised if it turns out to be so. There are so many who want a race war that they would not shy away from an opportunity to get one started, there have been a few well known attempts in recent past... if killing people of color won't do it, I'm sure there are a few who would take it to a level where white people would be the target. Some feel that whatever it takes is worth the sacrifice of a few of their own. I know there are some who feel that way in my neck o' the woods and they scare the crap out of me.

(3,580 posts)Flashed all over the news of the black man with an ar15 marching with the protesters apparently according to his brother was on the street marching and not a shooter and he turned his gun over to the police. When asked why he had his ar15 said it was his constitutional right.
