This wasn't the beginning of a revolution; this was cold-blooded murder plain and simple. These two assholes were most likely just looking for a reason to kill the police and found it in some bullshit ideology that wouldn't match their intentions just to justify it in a way that wouldn't make people see them as run-of-the-mill cop-killers (spoiler alert: they are) by default. They also stole the weapons and badges from the two dead officers after the fact; this seems a lot more personal to me than the idea of "starting a revolution". I think they had a bone to pick with Las Vegas Metro PD in particular and expressed it in this tragic way.
