Active Shooter In Jersey City; 2 Gunmen Shooting At Cops, 1 Officer Down

[waffles]

Before social media and the chicken little dance, we called it crime.

I'm sure the headline "Crime in Jersey" would be very helpful. Just as you'd differentiate robbery, fraud, rape, or murder, especially if it was currently happening, specificity is important.

24 posts, zero about what actually happened. What's the point of threads like these from this point on? People care more about the language used to convey what's going on, than what is actually going on.

Might as well be Occupyar-15.co if people are going to constantly complain about phrasing.

I have similar feelings on the term "wildfire"...

In a blizzard he was lost, on a cold Nebraska night.
She ran calling Wildfire!

I love that line: Phrasing!

Thanks Archer.

It started in a cemetery and ended in a kosher store.

The radio traffic was nuts. The most crazy part was when the officers that were in the school across the street from the Kosher Grocery radioed they were out of ammo. Not sure if all they had were handguns and two mags or if they took long guns. ESU teams were trying to get to them for back up and re-supply.

Can?t copy it on my phone but an article on msn from The NY Times indicates the perps were anti-cops and antisemites, targeted the grocery story after they shot Det. Seals. Some kind of manifesto described as rambling was supposedly found also.

The best description I've seen thus far was here: https://www.ar-15.co/threads/176502-...led-by-gunfire

Man, you think you get numb to this stuff. This is a really sad event.
