No info on the Westerville cop shooter yet. No name, etc.
I’m thinking it probably was a domestic call by a wife/girlfriend that was stopped from making a complete 911 call. The cops came to check the hang-up and a hot-headed boyfriend/husband opened up on them. One of the cops must have shot him, he is still in the hospital.
So, further to your point…it has that pissed off white guy feel to it.

Many people your age are jealous that I can run at my age (which is the same). I attribute my good knees and ankles (and calf) to my former existence as a cyclist.
Sounds like you should cut back to twice a week, but I know nothing of these things. Do you walk sometimes when you run? When klys was here, she was doing a run-4-minutes-then-walk-one thing. And I made her go to that practically abandoned track with the roadrunner on it. She had zombies with her, too.

Latest report out of Westerville: from NBC4i TV
Westerville Police Chief Joe Morbitzer said officer Eric Joering, 39, died at the scene and his colleague, Tony Morelli, 54, died at a local hospital. He said the officers were responding to a “potential domestic situation” and were fired on almost as soon as they entered the building on Crosswind Drive to investigate.
Edit to add. Investigation of the shooting handed over to Columbus Police Department. They are on the scene and doing all the evidence works, etc.
Might be why we haven’t had a report of the shooter. Usually CPD doesn’t mess around and releases as much info as possible. I don’t think it will be too long to identification.

The bizarre thing is that the dark complected face he put it place of Markle’s is in fact a recreation of the looks of “Cheddar Man”, a prehistoric man from England. Scientists recently concluded after genetic analysis that the people living there at the time (~ 10,000 years ago) had very dark skin like populations in many other parts of Europe. Pale skin is now thought to be a relatively recent evolutionary development.
The dark complected former dwellers of England did not go extinct. Rather, they interbred with successive waves of immigrants. Research suggests that about 10% of current white British citizens carry genes that indicate “Cheddar Man” ancestry even though they have pale complexions.

The world spent the 00s telling themselves that the horrors of Dubya would pass, that it was a blip in the otherwise sane and reasonable history of American politics. And through the Obama years, they could insist that this had been true, that the American people had realized their mistake and gone back to “business as usual.”
Then Trump got elected. And now, the world can’t assume anything other than America is bipolar and schizophrenic. That we have brief moments of clarity before rebelling against such and seeing just how far into the madness we can take ourselves.

When trump deports the dreamers it will never be forgotten. The wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria will long be remembered. The cost to the world of 9-11 has been higher than can be imagined. That President Obama could not end these wars is a testament to the US war machine having no idea as to its present or its future. I look forward to watching the unification of Korea now that trump has pulled out of supporting SK. It seems Pence is working towards making the US irrelevant in that part of the world.

This has to be an act.
I am going with the theory floated here recently, Walsh knows he won’t get a FoxNews gig so he is uncrazying himself to maybe get a CNN or MSNBC deal.
I really hate that the musician Joe Walsh of “Rocky Mountain Way” fame shares a name with a shitty far right one term congresscritter who’s been documented to miss child support payments. Just like our Charles and UpChuck. It’s unfortunate, it is what it is.

re: #125 Eclectic Cyborg
Actually, I guaranteed he wouldn’t be fired…and he wasn’t. He resigned. Also, both Trump and Kelly wanted him to stay.
Few people are ever publicly fired by this White House though. Priebus and Gorka were allowed to resign. Bannon’s departure was cast as a “mutual agreement” between him and Kelly. Even when everyone knew that Omarosa had been escorted out they cast it as her decision to “explore other opportunities,” insisting she would still technically be an employee for another five weeks. Of course NOW they say they fired her, but only because she started spilling the beans on her new reality show gig. The only one who was definitely treated as a firing at the time was Scaramucci, and that was just Kelly attempting to assert some early semblance of control in spite of Trump.

“”What will they do next?” “Why did that person do this?” It really makes no rational sense because it is clearly the projection of their own feelings onto others.
The lack of accountability in the narcissist is astounding. When you expect they will see the error of their ways and apologize, you will find them defending themselves. Somehow, they find a way to make it all about you and it becomes your fault. “You made me react that way.” “You did this or that to create my rage.”

Here is Facebook “trending” headline:
National Security Agency
Russian offering info on Trump bilked U.S. spies out of money: NY Times ‑ msn.com
Now, the Times headline wasn’t much better. Trump tweeted out a 180 degree falsehood about the story as NSA paying money for dirt on him. But if you only read the headlines that’s exactly the impression you’d get. The story was that NSA is desperate to get any info they can on stolen hacking tools and when approached agreed to spend some money, but cut off deal when they were offered “dirt” on Trump instead.
Fuck Facebook and NYT headline writers. They have to do better.

Economic sanctions, maybe. Trade barriers — well, that’s what we’re doing, after all. For the rest, I don’t think there’s a viable alternative at this time.
As to recovering our international reputation post Trump, we came back from Vietnam and Reagan (Grenada, El Salvador) pretty quickly, and with all the new information about Russian hacking, I’m not sure it’s established THAT DT won. It is clear that many more people voted for that other candidate.
