A confrontation between law enforcement agents erupted in gunfire Thursday evening at the federal building in Long Beach, leaving two dead and one seriously injured, authorities said.

I wonder if this had something to do with the earlier incident yesterday when two F-16’s were scrambled from Riverside to intercept a Cessna which had strayed into Obama’s air space. The plane was forced to land at Long Beach Airport and there was 40 pounds of marijuana onboard. That happened around 11:30 AM. Wouldn’t Homeland Security get involved in something like this? ICE is part of DHS now.

Just a couple of unrelated incidents?? The authorities are also hush-hush about the plane incident. No identification of the pilot, etc.

The agent shot his boss. A third came in and shot the shooter dead. The supervisor is alive in the hospital.

Please spell that out again, starting with who shot Rembrant...

[Tijeras_Slim]

His coworker shot him to protect the boss I think.

That's taking brown nosing to a new level.

It was interesting to watch endless alphabet agencies line up to the microphones last night and immediately started congratulating each other on the quick response, commenting on what a great, "Family" they are, as one after another was eager to step up to the mic for face time.

This now occurs on nearly every single notable incident involving local, state and federal agencies...They immediately call a press conference, announcing to all what a great job they all did. Regardless of the event or circumstances, as the crowd of government "Officials" crowd up to the mic.

Bureaucrats killing bureaucrats... and right near where I live... Who’d have thought?

[SaraJohnson]

That might set someone off.

To shoot a bunch of family pets?

[SaraJohnson]

It’s the gun’s fault this happened.

It might have been one of those walking guns that is in cahoots with the Mexican drug cartels and Muslim radicals across the border. They are plenty angry about the raaaacis Republicans asking all those questions of Brotha Holder!

Best post from comments on the story:

"Got tired of his boss letting illegal aliens rape, rob and murder."

“The shooting is being investigated by HSI’s Office of Professional Responsibility, the Long Beach Police Department and the FBI.””

This should be interesting!

“The shooting is being investigated by HSI’s Office of Professional Responsibility, the Long Beach Police Department and the FBI.”

They will release the names of those involved, "after relatives have been notified." This happened on the 16th inst?
