watched a live feed, 5 guys were OUTSIDE the hospital. waving some african flag and chanting "we hope they die" I guess now there are more protesters there, but not sure whats going on

I just heard that report on Fox and what I'd like to know is how did the protestors find out about the shooting and get to the hospital before the ambulance???

My tears are flowing for those officers, their families and our country!! :cry:

The article below mentions the camera that caught the video had a 'fisheye' lens that could distort the appears of the shooter.


Video shows 2 deputies ambushed, shot while inside patrol vehicle in Compton; gunman at large: LASD

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 Compton.

Three hours after shots were fired, the search for the shooter was ongoing, officials said.

The deputies were working with the department’s Transit Services Bureau and sitting inside a patrol vehicle parked near the Blue Line Metro station in Compton when the shooter approached them, according to the department.

They were parked along 101 East Palmer St., across from the station, when the gunman came up “from behind” just before 7 p.m., Captain Kent Wegner said during a news conference later Saturday night. He said the deputies were facing southbound, and the shooter walked up from the north.

“He walked along the passenger side of the car,” Wegner said. “He acted as if he was going to walk past the car. And then he made a left turn directly toward the car, raised a pistol and fired several rounds inside of the vehicle, striking both of the sheriff’s deputies.”

Both deputies were left in critical condition with multiple gunshot wounds, officials said. They underwent surgery at St. Francis Medical Center in Lynwood within four hours of the shooting.

One of the deputies is a 31-year-old woman who is married and has a 6-year-old son, and the other deputy is a 24-year-old man, according to Sheriff Alex Villanueva. He said they were both graduates of Class 437. On its Facebook page, the department posted a video of that class’s graduation ceremony at East Los Angeles College on July 11, 2019.

“They just graduated, and in fact, I swore them into office just 14 months ago,” Villanueva said. “These are real people doing a tough job, and it just shows the dangers of the job — in the blink of an eye.”

While the shooter remains at large, 14 homicide detectives and several other investigators are working to find them based off video collected from cameras in the area and a “very, very generic suspect description” given by the male deputy who was shot, Wegner said.

He said the deputy was only able to describe the shooter as a “dark-skinned male.”

A seven-second clip released by the department, which Wegner said came from an MTA camera just south of the shooting, shows a person in dark-colored clothing walk up to a sheriff’s patrol vehicle and appear to open fire before running away.

However, Wegner said that video was taken from a fisheye lens, likely distorting the appearance of the shooter’s actual height and weight. Because of that, investigators are mostly working off of the wounded deputy’s account, he said.

“So I’d rather go from the eyewitness at this point,” Wegner said. “We hope to have more soon.”

Less than an hour after the shooting, the department said in a tweet: “They are both still fighting for their lives, so please keep them in your thoughts and prayers.”

“This was an unprovoked, cowardly act,” said Assemblymember Reggie Jones Sawyer, who represents California’s 59th Assembly District, which encompasses much of neighboring South Los Angeles.

“The individual will be caught, and justice will prevail,” Sawyer said. “Tonight, we as a community, must condemn the actions of the perpetrators.”

Sawyer and Assemblymember Mike Gibson, who represents Compton and other parts of L.A., both called for prayers for the wounded deputies and urged anyone with information to come forward.

“If you know something, if you were there, we’re asking that you please call the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, and please share what you know,” Gibson said.

The shooting has left the Sheriff’s Department shaken. Villanueva struggled to mince words as he spoke to reporters late Saturday night.

“Two deputies were doing their job, minding their own business and watching out for the safety of the people on the train,” Villanueva said. “And seeing somebody walk up and just start shooting on them — it pisses me off.”

“It dismays me at the same time, and I have no pretty way to say it,” Villanueva said.

Watch to see if there is any change in behavior by the rest of LEO going forward.

Even as cops are targeted by the leftists and their pets muds... the thin blue line will continue to stand by and watch traditional Americans have their homes and businesses destroyed by the leftist mobs, not lifting a finger until some traditional American dares to defend their home or business. Then these same cops will swoop in and destroy the very population they are supposed to be protecting.

For years, LEO at all levels has been doing everything they can to alienate the traditional segment of the population.....even with all that is going on, DHS is still bitching about the supposed "white supremacists" threat.

The cops aren't on your side. That nonsense about sheepdogs is foolishness. They are not going to protect you or your way of life, in fact they are complicit in your destruction....

The LA County Sherriffs Office tweeted:

“To the protesters blocking the entrance & exit of the HOSPITAL EMERGENCY ROOM yelling “We hope they die” referring to 2 LA Sheriff’s ambushed today in #Compton: DO NOT BLOCK EMERGENCY ENTRIES & EXITS TO THE HOSPITAL, People’s lives are at stake when ambulances can’t get through.”

Just as an aside:

a fisheye lens distorting the person, should also distort the vehicle. Meaning if the lens makes the person seem smaller, it would do the same to the cop car. So relative size/height would be the same. However, it would/could make the person and vehicle appear "fat".

MARANTHA!! Even so, come LORD JESUS!!!
I think it's a woman too. The cop that said it was a black male was in shock, his perception distorted>>>

The way "it" ran and even when I first saw it, lifting the gun, etc. I thought it was a woman. How hard is it to make yourself look male, I mean, cover the hair, if you are not voluptuous, it's not that hard really. And long sleeves and a jacket in this heat>>>>hiding something!

Didn't seem like any recoil. Maybe a .22? The passenger managed to open the door afterward. If they had been hit in the head near point blank with a larger caliber it's unlikely that would have happened.

Please note that no white supremacy group has come out and shot down those blocking the Hospital emergency entrance. Nor has any Vet greased their carcasses to the pavement. Life is good for that scum. For Now.
This is the paradox we face.....anyone that did step up and smoke a leftist mud would get smashed by the legal system that the cops so judiciously support. Any vet that has knowledge, skills, and ability to do the necessary would become a martyr for a system that hates them. Truly a fool's errand.

There is a reason that suppressors and subsonic loads, out of proper weapon systems, especially at night, wielded by experienced and motivated special operators, are a thing terrorists should fear... Terrorists only think that they're the deadliest force in America... Soon, they'll meet their maker, and far sooner than they would expect...

Beware the quiet American, who has seen and done it all, even for ass-wipes like the terrorist scum who do not love and value life... Nature will be balanced, and once again, peace and tranquility will return... One dead terrorist at a time...

Bright Blessings,

A classic historical element of Communist revolutionary warfare has been to specifically target government entities in order to provoke a violent backlash from those entities. A few true believers may be "martyred" in the process but it succeeds in alienating the authorities from the public at large.

It's right out of the Commie/Progressive playbook.

Red you must have the same prescription strength cynic pills as I'm taking...
This morning I wonder how a typical ghetto shooter, with one magazine, managed multiple head shot hits
and it just so happened to be in one of the few areas where there is legitimate issues with police force?

If I were a pot stirrin' commie bat rastard I might detonate such devices myself to be sure my goals were met...
How many and which countries are already represented in our country's difficulties, anyway.
Gasoline, meet match. Still the tools either don't notice or don't care that they're just poster creatures for everything that is wrong with that agenda, and driving folks away in droves. Hmm. surely "our side" doesn't stoke the flames in order to reap the benefit of the push back?

I agree - what's needed are skilled long range shooting teams. 5-7 kills per event and gone. love notes sent from places unseen on wings unheard . . . I'll not be shy about it - I'M ANXIOUSLY WAITING FOR IT and its WAY OVERDUE

Let your fingers do the walking. Wonderful thought.

^^^^ THIS ^^^^

in spades - all across CONUS - the entire country
2 weeks of blue flu would be an eye opener to everybody - 4 weeks of blue flu would have liberal mayors and DA's hanging from lamp posts and other conveniently located high places

just occurred to me - SHOULD - some thing like ^^^that ^^^ transpire I'll bet the resulting increase in bullshit from the left and backlash from the public would swing the vote hard to the right . . .
