[Common]

Their on duty 24hrs a day

Former Albany Police Chief Jason Falconer (http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/local/2016/09/18/part-time-avon-officer-saved-lives/90623684/) is being hailed as a hero after he shot and killed a knife-wielding man Saturday night at Crossroads Center.Falconer, who operates a Waite Park firing range and firearms training facility called Tactical Advantage, was shopping at the mall when a man entered Sears on the southeast side of the mall and stabbed nine people on his way to Macy's on the north side of the mall. Security video in Macy's captured the suspect entering the store holding a knife and encountering Falconer, who works part-time with the Avon Police Department.
"As somebody who has had the chance to witness the surveillance tape in Macy's and witnessed what he did, he clearly prevented additional injuries and potentially loss of life," said Mayor Dave Kleis. "His heroic actions are exemplary."

Who is this mysterious "suspect" that the police and liberal pro obama/pro hillary news media know so little about?

Given the state I suspect it was a Somali member of ISIS. The Clinton News Network will never discover this.

He is a Jihadist. Hopefully the authorities can determine if he has friends nearby and if so, engage them and take them out.

He has 40,000 somali muslim associates in minnesota alone.

too many for the authorites to investigate even if liberal political correctness allowed them to

Most of them are not Jihadists, although that community does have a higher percentage of them than other Muslim groups in the US.

Why is a cop hailed as a hero for doing his job ?

"Most of them" is a very loose standard when innocent American lives are hanging in the balance.

Are you hailed a hero when you cook up a batch of fries at home?

Let each Somali declare, recorded and available on Youtube, that they abhor and disavow Sharia. Those who are unwilling can move to Canada or return to Somalia.

Good shoot.

No mention of the cops "race" when perusing the headlines on this. Perhaps the MSM doesn't need race injected unless it helps them advance an agenda to promote racial disharmony?

I agree, they should disclose the race of the perp for documentation purposes. There should be no bed shatting also when others bring up race dependent threads....
