The dude hid behind concealment, popped out to fire the round that killed her, and then ducked back behind his position. I can't accept that as the actions of someone who felt threatened by the actions of the so-called mob.
    How is that a disagreement with what I wrote? Or are you just generally sorry?

    Do these videos change your mind about the shooting?

    A group of people including the unarmed woman were smashing the glass and kicking the doors while they shouted "smash it down" and "bust it down"
    Imagine shooting a small woman perched on a window frame, while she’s surrounded by police, instead of say... pushing her back out of the window?

    Fucking idiot

    Castle doctrine. Reminds me of the McCloskeys in St Louis. Had the mob tried to breach their house, they'd only need to shoot one and the whole invasion would come to a halt as it did here. More chivalrous to shoot a male though.

    Thank you, oldguy, for repeatedly (and, incredibly, vociferously) making my point: our leaders readily and emphatically use force to defend THEIR windows (and know-nothing, lard asses!), because, well, their elaborate, corrupt kickback system is being threatened, but when it's "capitalism" (personal liberty & prosperity, really) that's under attack, in the form or property and companies being destroyed in the 2019 ghetto riots, our leaders stand back and watch.

    THESE are the people you suddenly expect to act in the interests of "the people," after UBI, racially identical outcomes, government monopolies, and all your other pet projects are put into place?

    Seems pretty gullible and short-sighted, and ignorant, in light of these two unequal responses to threats to different populations in summer 2019 and January 2020.

    Haghstall, George, and Mueller, and the others who think you'll be exalted for your empathy and compassion by our new leaders, once the Revolution (Reset) occurs: explain how you reached this conclusion, given historical examples that involve equal-opportunity bullets in the head for members of the former majority in new, utopian societies?


    I highly recommend everyone at least skim through 'Nos' by Gogol to experience in a literary way, before it happens to us in reality, how the people living in their posh abodes experienced the redistributive reset in Russia. Beyond the Redistributive Reset of the early 20th century, you'll fictionally frown at the inane results when bureaucracies gained power and social promotion started occurring based not on merit or even heredity but eQuaLiTy!

    I don't think she should have been shot but I don't think she should have been allowed to climb over the barrier either. You let one person in the rest will follow. As the guard, you have to make a split second decision. Let the protestors in or keep them out. You let the protestors in you could be killed by them. Why put an armed man in that situation? It's a cowardly decision he made but it's not surprising. I personally think she should have been tackled by the guards behind her or tased.

    See? Arguing the merits of the killing is futile- someone, whether well-meaning or blinded by partisanship, will always find justification.

    Just get your opponent to concede that force wasn't used at the BLM/AntiFa riots but was used here, because in the former OUR property and system of life were threatened, while in the latter THEIR property and livelihoods (pay for play and kickback-generating governance) were being attacked. THEY do not have our best interests at heart, nor do they want to waste political capital or government resources on protecting us and our livelihoods.

    Coincidentally, just like the hackneyed (though correct) logical exercise that a progressive cannot name a ceiling for his tax rates, and so it is safe to concede that the "rich" aren't taxed "enough"; and similar to the argument above, we can concede the efficacy of masks to True Believers like our board's effervescent Sully, yet still end the argument by asking HOW LONG, regardless of their effectiveness, the masks must be worn. You will not get a concrete number or coherent response, proving in one swift blow both how futile it is to debate scientific specifics, and how all the "safety" measures in place since 2019 are Illegal, Immoral, Inane, and just plain WrongÑŠ.

    This should be fun to watch as the Discovery process should actually expose them and everyone involved.

    I suspect that this is nothing more than a threat to try and make her back down. The actual case will be dropped before it gets near a court room.

    The castle doctrine doesn't exist in DC. It does in MO.

    I doubt that that will make a difference when it come to killing for the state, but you or I would certainly and justifiably go to jail under the circumstances of that shooting if we were security at some private business.

    What the actual fuck are you blathering about to lump me in with those two commies?

    It was pointed out to me last night that The Wichita Falls State Hospital apparently has better security than the US Capital Building. Why might this be?
