Three Texas cops were shot by a terrorist answering a domestic violence call. One of them died. |
Many in the law enforcement are being stretched out to the brink. They are just like me, you and others. They are not immune to the coronavirus.
They still have to answer to gun violence, car accidents, animal attacks, routine traffic control and domestic violence calls. Now with this coronavirus, they are now trying to babysit Americans who refuse to head the orders of social distancing.
Well another cop paid the price. The terrorist got the drop on three cops and one cop in San Marcos, Texas paid the price. It's another hard lesson in the understanding of gun violence.
It never stops.
San Marcos Police Department announced that they've lost Justin Putnam, a five and a half year member of the force. Two others, Justin Mueller and Franco Stewart, were injured and taken to Ascension Seton Hays in Kyle, where they underwent surgery late on Friday night.
The San Marcos Police Department posted on Facebook around 7:15 PM., urging people in the area to shelter in place as they responded to an "incident" on Hunter Road. That incident was a call about an assault/domestic disturbance at the Twin Lake Villas Apartments.
As they responded, "the suspect ambushed officers with a rifle," according to a release from the department.
"We are heartbroken to make this announcement," Interim Police Chief Bob Klett said in the release.
"We ask for your support for our fellow officers and their families as we try to cope with yet another tragic event in our San Marcos Police family."
In a Sunday press conference, Klett identified Justin Putnam as the officer who was killed at the scene. Putnam, a Texas State University graduate, was 31 and had been with SMPD for five and a half years.
"We lost a fine young man, a faithful officer and a friend," Klett said of Putnam. "He understood what it took to police a wonderfully diverse community like San Marcos."
During the press conference, Klett confirmed that both Mueller and Stewart are in a critical but stable condition.
The alleged terrorist was preliminarily identified.. The law said the terrorist went out like a punk. He shot himself shortly after he was cornered.
During the press conference Klett said all three officers as well as that terrorist were wearing body armor.
Police chief Bob Klett tearfully announces the death of Justin Putnam. |
The call that came in of the incident stated that the terrorist hit his wife and that other people were inside the building.
They responded to the call and entered the property. As they were looking for this terrorist, he managed to get the drop on them.
Gov. Greg Abbott, the controversial Texas governor wants to open up the state despite medical officials saying it's too early went to social media to give "heart out to..."
Our hearts are heavy tonight with the report that San Marcos Police Officers were shot in the line of duty.— Greg Abbott (@GregAbbott_TX) April 19, 2020
Join Cecilia & me in keeping these officers in our prayers.#BackTheBlue
Governor Abbott Statement On San.. https://t.co/qwLtFYLc4U @woodlandsonline
Donald J. Trump, Mike Pence, Gov. Greg Abbott, Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX), Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and the 36 U.S. Representatives from Texas will offer the usual thoughts and prayers, "hearts going out to," my deepest sympathies bullshit. They'll offer no solutions to curbing gun violence because the Republicans and some Democrats fear the National Rifle Association. They fear that if they pass legislation to make it harder for people to purchase firearms, they'll lose funding and support in the primaries.
Now Putnam's family will have to bury him. They can't have a large gathering due to Abbott's social distancing and restrictions. Although I believe he will relax them for a large gathering to mourn the officer's death.
The FBI and Texas Department of Safety believe the terrorist has an alias. So if he's an illegal immigrant, expect Trump and the far-white to rally their base up with rhetoric about how Democrats love to see dead cops, etc.
They shut down roads within a three mile radius because the terrorist fired a lot of ammo. |
1, Routine traffic stop.
2. Answering a domestic violence or a mentally ill call.
3. Animal (cat, dog, coyote, bear or rabid animal attack).
4. Water rescue (ice, high water or flash flooding).
5. Mass shooting.
6. Friendly fire.
7. Traffic control.
8. High speed pursuits.
9. Exposure to biohazards/pathogens (HIV, STDs, food, blood, vomit or COVID-19).
10. Swatting (including making false statements, hostage negotiations and criminal damaging).
11. Weather (tornadoes, hurricanes, wildfires and blizzards).
12. Stress (suicide, domestic issues at home, alcohol abuse, corruption, racism or harassment).
Domestic violence calls are extremely dangerous for police. They don't know what they're walking into. Usually, the aggressor may be armed or mentally ill and the police have to risk their lives to save others.
The status quo of the gun culture. Now is not the time to talk about gun violence!
If there were more security guards and more civilians (aka the good guy) with a gun.......
They learn how to use firearms from watching (or listening) to gangsta rap.
They watch violent movies.
They don't have fathers or mothers in their lives and it results in them committing criminal acts.
Blah, blah, blah....
Moments of silence, street memorials, naming of public places, saying "Your heart goes out to...," lowering of flags and hashtags are platitudes. They are a huge waste of time. It's a man-made crisis created by a lazy ass government. They are enabling this. Donald J. Trump, Congress and the National Rifle Association are a bunch of lily-livered cowards. They are numb to gun violence.
The "good guy" with a firearm is the most dangerous person to have a firearm. Matter of fact, the NICE GUYS are often the ones who are spurned by society. Bad relationships, losing your job, jealousy over promotions, family feuds and racism are typical NICE GUY issues.
NICE GUYS ARE THE MOST DANGEROUS INDIVIDUALS WITH A FIREARM.
THE NICE GUY GETS SPURNED BY SOCIETY. THEY TAKE REVENGE ON SOCIETY.
RESTRAINING ORDERS ARE JUST A PIECE OF PAPER. THEY WILL NOT (I REPEAT) STOP A "MAD" INDIVIDUAL FROM OBTAINING A FIREARM.
Don't you just want to scream!?
When there's a mass shooting in the United States, do you believe "thoughts and prayers" and "my heart goes out to" save lives?
Scream in the faces of these damn lawmakers whenever they offer their "thoughts and prayers" to every fucking mass shooting in the United States. They will offer their condolences and say a word vomit how they sympathize with the deceased. Some here will tell us that "now isn't the time to talk." Others will say that "the NRA has too much influence on gun laws."
We will talk about this for a few days and then we're off to another controversy. The next controversy would either be something done by Trump, a politician, an entertainer or we will experience another mass shooting. The next mass shooting will be even worse than the last one.
I repeat myself over and over again! I use the same old copy and paste. I hear the same trolls saying that there's nothing we can do. I keep hearing "concern" trolls telling us that it's their own fault for their own deaths. I hear the same old talking points about "good guys with guns" and "god's given rights."
Every time these folks offer "thoughts and prayers," "their condolences," "their hearts going out to," and "their apologies," they are not sincere. For every naming of a road, park, bench, building and holiday, it won't matter to the community. For every time they lower flags, offer moments of silence and candlelight vigils, we just offer "feel good-isms."
The website Officer Down is a memorial to those who were killed in the line of duty. Those who don't get their names mentioned in the junk food media. Also the website the National Gun Violence Memorial also keeps record of the many individuals killed by gun violence.
We have mass shootings in the United States everyday. We are the only country in the world that continues to do nothing about this. Donald J. Trump, Congress, the National Rifle Association and agitators in the junk food media have moved on from dealing with this. They're too busy sniping over partisan blame games. With Trump being impeached while in office, he's unlikely to focus on gun violence.
Trump and lawmakers elected to federal office made politics extremely toxic. It's not just the fault of our dear leader and lawmakers, but relentless agitators on the 24/7 cable news channels. They are profiting off division and divisiveness. The internet is also a problem. It's is a breeding ground for potential mass shooters. Facebook, Twitter, Google and other social media outlets have been "ground zero" for disinformation, partisan threats and social activism. Incels and social outcasts find their outlets on sites that inspire them to cause harm to their fellow human beings.
It never happens in your community.......! Until it does! Every community in the United States will eventually have a legacy. A legacy of tragedy. A mass shooting will affect your town, your family and your life. So I don't want to hear that bullshit about how "guns save lives." They don't. The only thing that survives a gun shooting is the gun.

Gun violence is a bigger threat in the country. COVID-19 comes second. |

FOR EVERY BAD COP, THERE WILL BE A DEAD COP!
I DON'T BELIEVE EVERYTHING ON THE INTERNET OR THE COP'S VERSION.
GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES.
THERE IS NO GOD!
GOD IS NOT FIXING THIS!
We haven't forgotten about the many mass shootings in the United States. COVID-19 doesn't stop individuals from picking up firearms and killing others.
The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
