Please keep them and their families in your prayers.

You try being a cop! It is not a easy job!

I dunno shooter. Initially I figured being a law abiding constitution supporter meant I gave the election it's chance, and waited for the president's constitutional authority to be exhausted before acting. . .

..but ya don't mess with the babies or the men and women in uniform w/o turning my ire to white hot.. which i guess is the outcome they wish for eh :fgr:

After two deputies were shot and left in critical condition Saturday night, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department released surveillance footage that appears to show the shooting.

In the seven-second clip, a person in dark-colored clothing walks up to a sheriff’s patrol vehicle and raises his arm, appearing to fire into the vehicle multiple times. The department said the suspect remains at large while the two severely wounded deputies are undergoing surgery.

Officials said the deputies, one male and the other female, were ambushed as they sat inside their patrol vehicle. They both suffered multiple gunshot wounds.

In a tweet just before 8 p.m., sheriff’s officials said the deputies were shot just “moments” earlier.
“They are both still fighting for their lives, so please keep them in your thoughts and prayers,” the tweet read.

No other details have been released.

Leads me to dark thoughts of whether it is more purposeful, for instance, if the goal is to clear out the existing forces so they can steal the election and install their own squads. I'm sure I'm just taking too many cynical pills again eh : (

Compton and ---was it Foothills--- they had to disband and recreate in the 90s?? There have been a LOT of that going on in the area.
I don't much care if there is someone playing that side of the street as long as they get arrested and tried by a jury. ONE GUY or one small group is NOT a jury.

LASD deputies have been targeted by Black Lives Matter protests, as well as self-described anarchists and Antifa supporters, since the shooting death of a black man, Dijon Kizzee, earlier this month.
Kizzee allegedly fought with police who tried to pull him over for a bicycle infraction. He allegedly had a gun at the time of the confrontation.
Nightly protests, many of them violent, have taken place outside the LASD facility in South Los Angeles.
