TACOMA, Wash. (AP) -- Four police officers were shot and killed Sunday
morning in what authorities called a targeted ambush at a coffee house
in Washington state, a sheriff's official said.

Officials at the scene told The News Tribune in Tacoma two gunmen
burst into the Forza Coffee Co. and shot the four uniformed officers
as they were working on their laptop computers, then fled the scene.

Pierce County Sheriff's spokesman Ed Troyer said investigators believe
the officers were targeted, and it was not a robbery.

Troyer tells the newspaper ''it was just a flat out ambush.''

He could not immediately say what agency the officers were from.
Police were searching for two suspect and interviewing witnesses. The
coffee shop is near McChord Air Force Base in Tacoma, about 35 miles
south of Seattle.

''We hopefully will have answers, but there is nothing more we can
tell you,'' Troyer told KING-TV. ''That's as cold-hearted as it is.''

Roads were blocked around the attack. A witness driving past told the
newspaper he saw an officer on the ground just after the shootings.


Four cops "working on their computers" in a coffee shop?

If only the Dynamic Quartet of flajim, loogy, snotty scotty and Rob the
Krueger was around to help out the cops or pee down their pants legs,
whichever came first.

If the guy is a Muslim, he should be labeled a terrorist.

Liberal bull****. That's right - bull****.

"Over the course of the 20th century, the UK gradually implemented
tighter regulation of the civilian ownership of firearms through the
enactment of the 1968, 1988, 1994 and 1997 Firearms (Amendment) Acts
leading to the current outright ban on the ownership of all automatic,
and most self-loading, firearms in the UK. The ownership of
breech-loading handguns is, in particular, also very tightly
controlled and effectively limited (other than in Northern Ireland) to
those persons who may require such a handgun for the non routine
humane killing of injured or dangerous animals.

Each firearm owned must be registered on a Firearms Certificate (FAC)
or shotgun certificate which is issued by the local police authority
who will require the prospective owner to demonstrate a "good reason"
for each firearm held (e.g. pest control or target shooting) and may
place restrictions on the FAC relating to the type and amount of
ammunition that is held and the places and the uses the firearms are
put to. Historically, most certificates approved for handguns listed
"self defence" as a reason. Since 1968 in mainland Britain,
self-defense alone is not considered an acceptable "good reason" for
firearm ownership. Only in Northern Ireland is self-defence still
accepted as a reason. The police should not amend, revoke (even
partially) or refuse an FAC without stating a valid reason. (Section
29(1) of the 1968 Act gives the chief officer power to vary, by a
notice in writing, any such condition not prescribed by the rules made
by the Secretary of State. The notice may require the holder to
deliver the certificate to the chief officer within twenty one days
for the purpose of amending the conditions. The certificate may be
revoked if the holder fails to comply with such a requirement.)

Compare and contrast.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2009/no...shootings-rise

"They reveal that the number of actual shootings has almost doubled
from 123 to 236 in the last six months compared with the same period
last year, a rise of 91.8%. Serious firearms offences have risen by
47% across the capital."

That's a country with one of the strictest gun control legislation in
the world.

Criminals will still get guns - or even make them.

Violence will always happen. Go to your local max security prison
sometime and ask for a tour of their weapons museum - you'd be amazed
at how easy it is to make a .22 single shot hand gun from some simple
materials - never mind shanks, shivs, gasoline/butane in light bulbs -
you name it, anything can be weaponized. Don't have a bullet to use?
Rubber bands or shaved plastic handles from toothbrushes - a spring is
just as good at throwing a projectile as gunpowder.

Then again, I suppose it's prettier on your side of the divide what
with all the rainbows, unicorns and pretty elysian fields.


Sure is easy for you to cite a statistic without any correlation to
regulation. Sure wish we had such a serious problem as the UK, with a
whopping 236 shootings. I think you'll find the number is a bit higher here
in the US.

The final, laughable "fact" is that you're claiming that criminals are going
to be mass producing home-made guns. We might run out of sporks!

Wonder what these cops (or one of them) were into that got somebody that

be the punishment for anybody who kills a cop, firefighter or EMS while
they are on duty.. Especially if they are in uniform.
