Wow, grenades? I didn't know you could get those.

In this case, only one deputy was wounded, bad guy dead.
You can purchase hand grenades right there in Galveston, Texas I forget which store, but they sell them empty of course and then you just put the powder in.

The two policeman in Las Vegas weren't so lucky though, uh?

I fear this really is going to be a war right here in America ... sad

Looks like the two nut jobs in Vegas were white supremacist:

The duo left calling cards of their world view on the bodies of the slain cops: a
"Don't Tread on Me" flag, a note that read "The revolution is beginning" and a swastika meant to equate police with the Nazis, McMahill said.

Yep, a couple of "patriots" who didn't want to be sent to fema re education camps for possessing guns after being caught breaking the law.
Its nice to see their mentor calling these murders a US government black flag operation.
I wonder if Alex Jones could be pulled in for conspiracy or incitement in relation to his disciples actions?

Over here our police kill people 'striking for more pay', en mass.

The US has a long way to go yet..

Given that these two deranged morons were publically big fans of Alex Jones, is why Jones has to push the "false flag" story every time these events occur to distance himself and lay blame on the government. Otherwise, he has to face the fact that his conspiracy theory con game shtick has gone too far and actually gotten people killed.
 
But lately it's degenerated into a nasty positive feedback loop. Time and time again these people harp on how anytime anybody in the US ever shoots someone else it's a "false flag event", to enact harsh gun control laws and that the fine citizenry needs to "stand up" to the tyrannical usurpers; but anytime one of them does take the initiative, it's just called another false flag by the rest. (that citizens need to stand up to the government over). Around and around.

That's a good question. The First Amendment doesn't protect Alex Jones from being held accountable for what he has said. That accountability may not have to be in the criminal sense. He might be vulnerable to redress under the law of torts. I do wonder if the victims and their families in this case might have cause to sue Jones under some form of reckless endangerment or negligence.

It's only fair when you think about the SWAT teams tossing flash/bangs into an occupied playpen while bum rushing a house to serve an arrest warrant. You can't be too careful with a possibly armed baby I guess.
I wonder if they've ever tried calling and ordering the wanted criminal to step outside and surrender? Nope, they have to be all macho and use the ambush tactic with no regard for any of the innocent folk who might be present.
Sometimes the cops are nutters too.

Can you say oppression by excessive force?
