This may not be a jihad terror attack. It could a police-hating Leftist. It could be something else altogether. But the weapon and the target make jihad a possibility.
“BREAKING: Cops shot by active gunman wielding AK47 with several injured,” by Nicholas Bieber, Daily Star, July 6, 2017:
A GUNMAN wielding an AK47 has shot two police officers.
The attacker is now on the run after the shooting in Gava near Barcelona in Spain as police launch a major manhunt….
One is in critical condition after being shot in the neck….
Dave says
Left/Liberal Loons have bought and sold the “Islam is religion of peace” while ignoring the history of jihad and the present active ongoing jihadi attacks .
Voytek Gagalka says
It is something wrong with a country if “gunman” runs with the AK47 and PC “police” cannot even defend themselves. Are they in Spain, like in France and Britain, disarmed or scared to death to use their guns?

Barcelona is in Catalonia, and Catalonia is trying to secede. Many Spaniards object to that and are reacting arrogantly. Maybe one of them would even commit a false flag attack against Spanish police to discredit the independence movement. Or maybe those are Catalonian police shot by a Catalonian. It’s easy to imagine other possibilities, too, related to the secessionist turmoil.

Yes–it must be those “arrogant” Spaniards shooting police to make Catalonians look bad. After all, it is inconceivable that it could be a violent Muslim targeting those who protect Infidels…sarc/off

There are, of course, many more such stories.

Any time any part of the “Thin Blue Line” is injured or killed, it’s a tragedy. No matter where it is. Imagine a world without the Police, or Laws. Anarchy
Sort of like The Walking Dead?

Muslims would *love* to be able to wipe out Western police and security.

According to a Catalan paper it’s a hunting rifle that was used in another murder. The assailant supposedly has nothing to do with terrorism it’s just a sordid crime

You would think Spain had had enough of Islam during its earlier history until 1492. Spain is not doing a good job teaching its history to young people. The history of Islam-occupied Spain should be taught to the Spanish young in meticulous and shocking detail.
Keys says
Yes, and the Spanish young should also be taught in meticulous and glorious detail exactly how the Muslims were expelled from Spain.
Many today say that Muslims can not be expelled from the countries they have recently “invaded”, yet today we have more efficient means to get them out than available in the 16th century.
