Four Police Officers Killed in Ambush Near McChord Air Force Base

KING-TV: Four police officers have been shot and killed near McChord Air Force Base.

Pierce County Sheriff's spokesman Ed Troyer says that the officers were in a coffee shop near 116th Street and Steele Street on the east side of the Air Force base at about 8:30 a.m.

Troyer says the officers were preparing for their shift when a suspect or suspects opened fire.

Troyer called it an "ambush."

Massive media silence on this. You’d figure that the shooting of four officers at an air force base would make most or some of the main stream media? I guess the libs will have to pray to Marx that is wasn’t a Muslim. I can hear them chanting now, “Don’t let it be Muslims, don’t let it be Muslims…”

dontflagmebro   November 29th, 2009 - 1:10 pm

Well they where not at a base just near one. Don’t worry they will come out with gun grabbing stories soon. They have wait for Obama administration to tell them what to report on it. Since they are the 4th branch of govt now.

Let me quess – reports of the Jews running away and laughing will be replaced with a story of an “Iranian” as the perp. They will do anything to get this war started. Remember the 5 dancing Israelis giving each other high-fives while filming the WTC collapse? Funny how that story continues to be suppressed.

http://whatreallyhappened.com/WRHARTICLES/fiveisraelis.html

Let’s look at Israel’s long history of terrorism and especially false flag terrorism:

King David Hotel bombing
Lavon Affair
USS Liberty attack

Lets not jump to any conclusions.

Terry   November 29th, 2009 - 1:21 pm

Why is that? Because of some cartoonish portrayal of Muslims? What do you really know of them? Do you relate to Maury Povich?

Elric66   November 29th, 2009 - 1:35 pm

Most likely muslims or a gang comprised of illegal immigrants

Shiori   November 29th, 2009 - 1:51 pm

Terry – I get real fits of laughter reading your nonsense. Every singly solitary issue is about the “J3ws” for you. Ever give yourself the creeps?

Tom   November 29th, 2009 - 1:56 pm

find ‘em, try ‘em and terminate ‘em….perfect death penalty case….

Tom from Florida   November 29th, 2009 - 1:59 pm

It’s obvious that Terry is a Muslim. Heck everyone knows that Muslims what to turn the west into a land controlled by Sharia Law.

Muslims are our enemy. Obama-Soetoro is a Muslim. He, and everyone in congress, is our enemy.

Get with the program.

The Bubster   November 29th, 2009 - 2:08 pm

Did the killers yell Allahu Akbar!!! before firing?

John   November 29th, 2009 - 2:34 pm

Really Terry?

Do you actually investigate anything you write?…

USS Liberty may have been fishy, but it was not a false flag attack by any stretch of the imagination, IDF attacked the boat flat out. The Lavon affair was orchestrated not by the government of Israel but by a crooked official who was promptly canned after the event by the prime minister of Israel. Finally, the King David Hotel bombing happened before there even was an Israel. I’m sure you’d like to think that your important in the world and that you know some secret which everyone else doesn’t know or something; however, rather than give in to your pathology I’d try going to a shrink rather than conspiracy theories. You have a significantly lower chance of getting punched in the nose after taking anti-depressants than you do spouting off some BS cockamamie theory.

There were quite a few that went to bat for us in Iraq & covered our azz

Gandhi's Fist   November 29th, 2009 - 3:34 pm

@Say it ain’t so

Not a hard call. 2010 will be a test though. Dems are renowned electoral cheats, so conservatives will need a fifth more votes to set things right. Every vote counts, except if it’s Acorn, where each vote counts for a dozen. We now know the stakes, which are, open door immigration policy to Islamic radicals and the third world, uncontrolled spending and it’s companion, taxation. All, with the goal of converting America to a socialist country. They’d try communist, if they could get away with it. We have been warned.

claspur   November 29th, 2009 - 3:39 pm

Knew it was Washington state hearing King and Pierce County, by Seattle..

When I lived in Mpls., a cop, months away from retirement, Jerry Haaf got shot-dead at The Pizza Shack while filling-out reports at 3am in ‘92.(?)

Some idiot Gangster Deciple was carrying-out some revenge shooting, for something bogus.
I knew some Minneapolis coppers at the time…. after that shooting, they always layed their service weapons on their tables. while eating…locked and loaded.

Terry   November 29th, 2009 - 4:00 pm

Tom – how about the Jews warping the country to fit Talmudic Law? Funny, every major media outlet is controlled by Jews….not Muslims. Accounts for the myths you hold as fact that just so conveniently fit Israel’s agenda.

Muligan   November 29th, 2009 - 4:06 pm

The shooting had nothing to do with the Air Force Base. It was in the city, next to the base. The shooter is a Black male!!! Loser gang banger, more than likely.

Kevin   November 29th, 2009 - 4:06 pm

The suspect is described a black male, 5′8 to 5′9 and in his 20s or 30s. He had scruffy facial hair with a black coat and blue jeans. He used a handgun.

The Marxists in DC will paint this as a random crime. I hope someone is collecting the data because all these random acts might become the quiet new strategy the fanatics brag about. Just so Premier Obama is clear of this. I guess if someone pops a nuke in a city, it will be blamed on some misguided Baptist! Just so the ObamaCommie is in the clear.

mcjj4   November 29th, 2009 - 4:33 pm

Hmm…I don’t get the hate about Jews there Terry. I don’t recall any Jewish people flying planes into buildings, bombing buildings, putting out video life threats to Americans,or turning terrorist traitor and killing their fellow soldiers…while the Muslim extreemists are trying to get sharia law supreme over our freedoms. I don’t think the Jewish Torah has one dot or tittle about killing infidels?? They dont stone their women or anyone for that matter. Is that what you mean by “cartoonish” than YEP…I belive that muslim radicals are very dangerous for our country. I feel if it just so happens that Jewish individuals are very business savy and have achieved that job – than great. Long live Capitalism. Same goes for a German, Irishman, English, Finnish, Black, White, Blue or green for crying out loud!

**************************************************************
No one just walks in and kill 4 cops just like that , No question this person i bet had a run before with other cops who probably treat him like crap ,

LESSON LEARN here to other POLICE MEN, TREAT people especially minorites with respect , and stuff like this would not come back to bite you.

many times i have been pull over and got spoken to very rude for no reason, because i ask ” why was I pull over’… and at that time i wish i had the powers to make them disappear.

Gandhi's Fist   November 29th, 2009 - 4:46 pm

@Muligan

Most comments have little to do with just who shot these officers but the main stream liberal media silence. The only thing that bears similarity to Muslim methodology is the cowardliness of the attack. Cowardly=Muslim. Easy mistake to make.

Kevin   November 29th, 2009 - 5:10 pm

Four Lakewood Police Officers murdered on Sunday may have been the target of gangs on the east side of Tacoma. Previous attacks on officers have been reported

Mexican gangs are causing havoc in the Tacoma-Yakima area of Washington with methamphetamine being the drug of choice for the gang.

You guys with your political conspiracy theories make me laugh.

More than likely it was just a couple drug dealers that got tired of the heat always being on them.

Sorry to disappoint you, but it has nothing to do with Obama, Muslims, the Media, Jews, Global Warming, the New World Order, Sarah Palin, or any of the other obsessions of your crazed mentality!

jujubee   November 29th, 2009 - 5:57 pm

lol at the lost soul named “terry”!

To make the argument that muslims have been mislabeled in past terrorist actions would be laughable if it wasn’t so ignorantly and widely believed by so many brainwashed like you? It’s actually the very type of thinking that is enabling this movement.

People seem to think that by embracing evil it will somehow be friendly towards them. Wrong…dead wrong. You’re just more fuel for their hell fire thinking that way.

Fang   November 29th, 2009 - 6:18 pm

I don’t why all of you are so pre-occupied with this. Why, don’t you know that Tiger Wood’s domestic problems are more important? Don’t believe me? Check the ABC “News” website. It’s the LEAD story. As for the bastard that did this to the Police Officers… I wish I could find you before they do.

when an evil dirt bag kills cops or military personnel. We will delve into the background of the miscreant and find the social evil in our capitalist hell that triggered this act against the establishment. Just as the Fort Hood shooter has been labeled everything from dysfunctional to frightened to victimized (everything but being labeled the evil terrorist that he was), the implied blame ends up not at the feet of the bad actor but on our society as a whole.

@Gandhi’s Fist

To bad… Looks like the suspect is one of Mike Huckabee’s favorite killers that he let loose…

“Huckabee Granted Clemency to Suspected Cop Killer”

http://littlegreenfootballs.com/article/35236_Huckabee_Pardoned_Cop_Killer

But he still might be a Muslim if that would make you feel brilliant…

Mike Huckabee   November 30th, 2009 - 12:24 am

“A man with an extensive criminal past — including a lengthy prison sentence commuted by former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee nearly a decade ago — was being sought Sunday in a deadly ambush on four police officers who were gunned down inside a coffee shop.”

“Clemmons has an extensive violent criminal history from Arkansas, including aggravated robbery and theft, the sheriff’s office said. He also recently was arrested and charged in Washington state for assaulting a police officer, and second-degree rape of a child.”

That brings to six the number of people the Huckster has killed…

@Sanders

Wake up every day feeling “brilliant”, don’t need an affirmation here to help. BTW Huckabee is most certainly the democrat’s favorite republican, outside of McCain. Pardoning the criminal is typically liberal shtick, be it the more common democrat variety or less seen, but still pervasive RINO sort. The only thing I ever liked about Huckabee is that he was quick on his feet (in a witty way) during his campaign. Other than that–the dems can have him.

Yet, if you actually understand English and read–completely–my post, you’d understand that it was more a condemnation of the vast liberal news media than whether it was another Muslim practicing his fascistic faith. It’s not that they should go out with both barrels blazing, accusing every Muslim of calumny, but, out of fear that it is another Islamic terrorist at work, they quash the story, period. Don’t think that’s true? Then you’re not paying attention.

BTW: The Muslim “faith” is on my international excrement list for the pervasive inhumanity promulgated by practitioners around the globe. Don’t have a nice thing to say about em–never will.

Ingvard   November 30th, 2009 - 12:42 am

Will this and other cold blooded murders of our finest be considered a
“hate crime”???

Sanders   November 30th, 2009 - 4:05 am

@Gandhi’s Fist

Huckabee is not a left wing liberal. He is a good Christian conservative. The reason he pardoned or otherwise managed to let loose so many killers, rapist, etc. is because he is one of those bat s* insane Christian lunatics. Any criminal that got “saved” at the time was on his pardon list. Huckabee believed Jay Cole and Steve Dunleavy more that the word of law. He probably just closed his eyes and talked to his magical Christian spirit god in the sky to be sure he was right. Huckabee was cheered on for letting DuMond loose by the evangelical Christians he patronized. It’s a long story we will all hear again and again now.

You whined about the news media not covering the story the way you like… You did not like that the media did not blame the other religious groups you happen to hate. Another person was wanting to blame Israel. Others picked Mexican gangs and drug dealers. – It looks like poster Farrakhan was pretty close. I suppose if you are Christian you will be all we weeded up now over the fact that the great Christian Mike Huckabee is to blame here. Well don’t worry, THAT will be the story now!! Lets just hope that the killer here does not add to the carnage in the mean time. And then, there are all the others that the all forgiving Huckabee let loose. DuMond and this killer were actually some of the nicer people that Huckabee got released.

So you brilliant soles like yourself and Huckabee can just pat yourselves on the back and blame everyone else. But really, your kind are the problem.

To Sanders   November 30th, 2009 - 4:24 am

The term is “wee-weed up” not “we weeded up”… You could say “We weeded up in the upper garden,” but that’s not what you meant, probably. The verb is wee-wee, and the past participle is wee-weed…

–You’re welcome… :)

Sanders   November 30th, 2009 - 4:42 am

The term is “wee-weed up”…

Thanks! I added it into spell check. ;)

They can’t help because they are the cause of the problem to begin with.

For the love of God, most of you have missed the point that 4 families lost their
loved ones, while they were preparing for a shift… writing stuff about muslims,
jews… I am so sick of the point being missed. They were ambushed! How about
this, he should of never been out of Jail in the first place, but you know we
are so PRO criminals rights he managed to get out… and now 4 of my husbands
friends are dead. Each one of them with children. Get over yourself, thank the
people that are protecting you from idiots like this, because while you chant
your beliefs in this country our service men and women are fighting to keep you
alive so you can run your mouths with pure stupidity. And for the moron who said
be nice to minorities… how about be curtious to all you meet but direct… so
some idiot doesn’t mistake your kindness for an easy target, because criminals
are criminals regardless of race or religion. Grow up America!
