(Reuters) - Two police officers were shot during a protest outside the Ferguson, Missouri police department early on Thursday, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch newspaper reported.
The Post-Dispatch reported that Ferguson Lt. Col. Al Eickhoff said he did not believe either of the officers were part of his department. He could not provide details on their injuries to the Post-Dispatch.

awwww crap.


now the Darren Wilson crowd is going to go into a frenzy. Awww man, this sucks. What is this going to solve but justify actions by abusive cops... I don't like where this is headed. I don't like people shooting at cops.

[puppetmaster]

Thanks dumb asses. That includes you Eric Holder and Obama

[RonPaulFanInGA]

[tasteless]At least the perpetrator didn't shoot unarmed people, as cops frequently do.[/tasteless]

[Tod]

I wonder if the two horn beeps were a signal to fire?

Acknowledgement 9 months ago would have kept that from happenin'

I hope you are including the Ferguson DA who didn't do his job in the "dumb asses" category.

[jbauer]

Did the officers have their hands up???

[JK/SEA]

too bad.

[TheTexan]

Are the officers OK?

[JK/SEA]

policy followed. Shooting justified... No indictment on the shooter will be submitted by the independant citizen panel.

[aGameOfThrones]

I hope the shooter don't get paid leave, that would be wrong.

[AuH20]

When the people of Ferguson start admitting they don't need policing, is the time when I will care. As of now, this whole thing on both sides is a one big circus.

[The Gold Standard]

I'm not surprised. If I was out there protesting and saw two bloodthirsty SS approaching me, I would fear for my life too.

[sparebulb]

The weather has warmed up.

This isn't over.

The State can turn the heat up on tension whenever they please to suit or mask their own purposes.

I read an article that was written to make me feel bad for the two innocent officers. It's possible that the two cops were some of the best guys and not rascist $#@!s... but they are now reaping what was sewn. When black men are pulled over and harrased just for being black, then they shouldn't be surprised when the blowback results in cops getting shot just for being cops

[morfeeis]

So what; i'm shocked it has taken this long for the people to fight back. They are being killed, bullied, extorted, imprisoned and oppressed, a little Nat Turner spirit might be just what is needed. But knowledge of our countries history leaves little room for hope; the rebels will be rounded up and given the harshest punishment for their decent and put on display for any who would think to resist the hand of the oppressor.

What sickens me about this is how many times in the last hour i have heard on the news about these two brave men who put their lives on the line for the people being shot FOR NO REASON by some thug. If the news reported on cops murdering people like they do with these two non life threatening injuries the world would be a better place.

It is impossible for two good cops to be apart of that department; if they watched what was going on and said nothing they are a party to the crimes.

One question. Why do the residents of Ferguson continually call the police if they are so terrible? I'm not an advocate for what the modern police force has morphed into, but you have to be completely deluded to think that the police are 100% responsible for the epidemic found in these communities.

[Red Green]

This solves nothing but unfortunately it was probably inevitable. Violence generally only leads to more violence so the whole idea of arming a bunch of psychopaths and turning them loose on the population with immunity for just about any action (and I for one believe that the Ferguson shooting was probably more justified than most) is eventually going to lead to some sort of blow back. It would have been nice to have some sort of peaceful revolution, but how often do those happen?

[pcosmar]

Didn't read the story (propaganda) and I don't care to.

I wonder if (like the Ukraine) the same shooters are targeting both protesters and police..

I suspect the same people run both Violent gangs.. and the disarmed citizens are caught in the middle.

this shooter or shooters were damn good shots too. 125 yards with a hand gun?...geezus ...sounds like special ops bull$#@! to me, but it could be these mundanes were just lucky..

I'm sure they were always quick to help bring their abusive thin blue gang banger comrades to justice.

Reaping indeed.

[CaptainAmerica]

why didn't they just comply?

I noticed that too. Two shots/two hits at 125 yds. takes some practice. It's possible that the cops were clumped and therefore a lucky shot. But, gangbangers don't spend much time on a 125 yd. pistol range.

The media created Ferguson. Let the media own it.

So, what does the state do at this point?

De-escalate?

Or ramp up the tyranny even more?
