Amazing how nothing is said about the shooter for a full day….
He belonged to an anti-government survivalist group.
Facebook page for group is all about guns.

The suspect has been identified as a black male named Gavin Eugene Long of Kansas City, Missouri, sources tell CBS News. He was born on July 17, 1987.
According to a military source, Long left the Marines in 2010 with an honorable discharge. His final Marine rank was E-5 (sergeant).
One suspect was killed and two others might still be at large, Casey Rayborn Hicks, a spokeswoman for the East Baton Rouge Sheriff’s Office, previously said. However, Louisiana state police said Sunday afternoon there is “no active shooter” in Baton Rouge.

Similar to the ISIS situation, the modern world might be too much for them.
Obama has disparaged police officers over the term of his Presidency and spent 3 hours with BLM organizers at the White House this week.
He praised them saying that they were much better at organizing anti American protests the he and Bill Ayers used to be…
Who voted for this Guy Twice?
You reap what you sow.

You are a tool and a fool if you believe this is the reason why he murdered those cops…
.
Look at his words and his videos.
He cheered the Dallas police shooting.
He advocated “going to war” against police and whites, wanted violent confrontation and stated that “demonstrations never work”
He hunted and killed these police officers in a pre-meditated fashion.
.
You can (now) find all of this information (and more) – even on mainstream news sites that give BLM a pass.
.
The question is why did it take over 24 hours to print this basic information when even the most incompetent news organization would have found it out within hours – but we all know the reason for that – it is the same reason why their is a rush to convict cops within minutes, even when they were found to be totally justified in their actions after multiple investigations are completed.
