They weren't needed immediately in any of the recent incidents. I've always maintained that large (think...state police) should/could have them, but there's still no reason for bumfark, arkansas needs one.

Well, usually, they just blow themselves up. At least this way, they gave themselves some chance of surviving.
The fact that they didn't do a suicide bombing makes me think they're not the normal ISIS/Al Qaeda attack, but still could be Muslims who are down with the anti-America cause, but not down with blowing themselves up.

How about this incident?

I agree with state police, but would add metro police like SB or Ferguson.

This is playing just like the Paris attack, FWIW.

There are suspected bombs reported. One found on the street and one on a dead perp. They were masked and fled just like Paris, though.

Got it, thanks. Maybe a copycat, or just a smaller group, then.

Ever seen how white a person turns when they bleed out? I think it's irrelevant, though - remember Boston? They might be white.

I don't think so. I can only assume they would look less pink.

So is that some sort of ambush? Did the perp bail and then jump out waiting to shoot?
