Some news sources are reporting there was a press conference with fox lake police or Lake county sheriffs office stating there were 3 suspects at large, 2 white male and 1 black male. Officer that was killed was making a traffic stop and pursuing on foot when they lost contact with him. I can't find any transcript or video of the press conference.

Speculation, rt59 can easily be used for drug running as a north/south corridor that is not as heavily used as rt47. Possibility that they got stopped, ambushed the cop, took contraband and are now on the run in an area they are not familiar with.
Hopefully they catch the fucks, whatever the reason was, and save the tax payers a few dollars as a result. |

I don't think we know for sure. The suspects they're looking for are a black guy, a white guy, and a woman of unknown race (at least that's the last word I read on it). seems a bit too diverse for #BLM to me, but, time will tell. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Yeah, and I wouldn't consider that area to be real strong with the BLM crowd. Pretty white up there; of course, this assumes the suspects were local. |

8/28 was Deputy Darren Goforth in TX, shot while pumping gas. Quite possible #BLM-inspired 8/28 was Trooper Chad Wolf in MI, run over on his motorcycle. Seems to be a tragic accident without maliciousness on the part of the driver. 8/28 was also Trooper James Bava in MO, died in a single-vehicle accident. Again, seems like a tragic accident. 8/26 was Officer Henry Nelson in LA, shot while responding to a domestic disturbance. Does NOT fit the mold of #BLM-inspired killing. 8/24 was Sergeant Peggy Vassallo in MO. She was struck by a vehicle in what appears to be an accident. 8/24 was Trooper Steven Vincent in LA, shot by a drunk driver with a shotgun. Passing motorists apprehended the gunman and rendered aid to the fallen trooper, but he passed. This is just from https://www.odmp.org/search/year/2015. I'm not sure if the other 3 or 4 were injured or if JRCmx has another source of information. |

Those pieces of shit will probably try to flee to Wisconsin since everyone in the Shitcago metro area seems to do that on a regular basis.
I'm sure the border counties in Southern WI have put their officers and deputies on notice. |

View Quote There's only one recent cop shooting that appears to be #BLM-inspired (Harris County Sheriff's Deputy Goforth in TX). The Vester Flanigan shooting probably was as well, but he shot a reporter and cameraman, not cops. Last year there was that "wings on pigs" guy that shot a couple of NYPD deputies, probably because of #BLM (I don't think the hashtag existed back then, but the mindset did). Are there some others that I've forgotten? |

Is this an actual uptick, or are we just reporting on it now because of the #BlackLivesMatter stuff? Honest question. I've never seen the stats. Uptick, I truly believe it is specifically because of that. In raw numbers, 51 law enforcement officers were [feloniously] killed in the line of duty in 2014, versus 27 such [felonious] deaths in 2013.
The FBI report Monday was preliminary; the complete annual report will be released in the fall. And the number killed in deliberate ambush attacks has tripled in a year, according to data collected by the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund. In 2014 there were 15 officers killed in fatal ambushes compared to five in 2013, the group said. |

The year isn't up yet, but there was a significant spike in 2014. 47 officers murdered by gunfire in 2014...23 so far this year, I believe. (And that doesn't count other forms of violence like assault, struck by vehicles, etc) Most everybody I talk to expects 2015's numbers to surpass 2014's.

Do we have stats that might go back to the 1920s to the present? I'd be interested to learn if there have been similar increases in LEO shootings in the past during say the Roaring 20, the Depression or the Back Panther days of the 1960s and '70s. |

Sigh....
Prayers out I work in ghetto.... This company is most likely the only white owned company in the area...... my wife, mother, and father all work here with me..... These instances are damaging my calm.. I stated in a long lost ferguson thread that the riots were a trend, and more violence is coming and it would not be contained to riots..... I never dreamed I would be right this early......... Article says two whites and a black are a suspect..... That doesn't matter to me... all I keep getting in the back of my mind is... When do they upgrade next. I can very easily become a target, or be away on a pickup when my ENTIRE family becomes a target... |

focusing on the numbers is the wrong thing to focus on. Focus on the REASONS.
focusing on the numbers gives a false narrative, like Obama has issued fewer executive orders than past Presidents. It isn't the number, it's the kinds of executive orders and their impacts. Likewise, it is the reasons the cops are getting killed, not the numbers that matter. (the number should be zero) |

Still waiting on the Administration to have the testicular fortitude to call for a peaceful end to killing of the men and women of the Law Enforcement Family.
