they basically have cameras all over the place that read license plates and run them against existing databases. so, they can be alerted if someone enters the community with a plate that comes back stolen, warrants...too much melanin....etc.

Personally, Altimas rank below Chrysler 300s and Dodge Chargers on my Suspicious Vehicle index.maroon barchetta said:

Probably enough to get the bad guy(s) charged. The prosecution would then have to prove, beyond reasonable doubt, at trial, that the bad guy(s) knew the person they were shooting at was a peace officer.Sea Speed said:
Would identifying yourself as a cop do the trick?
And that was probably a time when Houston had three major tv channels, two daily newspapers, no Internet, and no social media. With so many different ways for people to get their news and info these days, it's easy for local headlines to fall through the cracks. I haven't picked up a physical newspaper in years, don't care to pay for access to the Comical online, and I can't remember the last time I tuned into a local network newscast.MAROON said:
Yep. I remember year ago when an officer was killed in Houston and the entire city was stunned. Everyone, literally everyone in town drove that day with my their lights on in remembrance of the officer.

Think about this… we have now f***ing grown accustomed to LEOs being not just shot, but killed with regularity… we're not even shocked or outwardly outraged by it anymore. It used to be YEARS in between these sort of incidents happening, now it's just about monthly it seems.
At what point do we actually start holding people accountable for this nightmare?????
No clue. News article says he has a long criminal rap sheet that dates back to 2004Mr. AGSPRT04 said:
Any wagers on immigration status of the killer?

The suspect has previously been arrested in Harris County, Sugar Land, Richmond, and West Columbia.

Not only that, it makes it sound like people have been let out en masse for weeks at a time. Why is the public only hearing about this after the 4th incidence? Un freaking believable.
