If someone is trying to bust our your car window can you shoot them and not be charged?

If you have a reasonable fear for your own life, you are justified in using self-defense.

Whether you are charged or not depends on a lot of factors.

Waiting for Hitlery to condemn this violence. This is “not who we are”.

I think it depends on whether it’s at night or not.

Too bad Oregon doesn’t have that rule, that you can defend another’s property.

Time to stop the lie that the left believes in peaceful protest or that police departments in leftist jurisdictions will protect those who support Trump and America.

There was a guy with a concealed carry in a Portland protest. They locked him up and not the people attacking him. But that’s Portland for you. Eugene probably the same.

I used to say the people who thought Berkeley was too Conservative, moved to Oregon.
The Anarchy groups who justify beating people up based on their personal opinions is very strong in the NW.

These clowns are playing Russian Roulette. Plenty of conservatives in Oregon have carry permits.

I like how they’d NEVER start any news story about a conservative gathering with how peaceful it was, if ANY KIND of violence was associated with it whatsoever.

Typical liberal news slant.

looks as if PC Oregon is about to throw a little of the left’s own PC back at it.

Maybe. Let's see if anybody is arrested. Cameras are all over. They could ID those 150 violent protestors.

I think people who are “detained” in their cars by mobs need to start suing for wrongful imprisonment.

If i am held up in my car, with no reasonable way of moving away with my car, I am being held hostage. That is kidnapping, and i’m going to act like I am being kidnapped, and react accordingly. And I’m going to take names, and sue everybody involved, and file a police report about the kidnapping.

Or maybe I’ll just slowly run away with my car. I think I’m allowed to use a certain amount of force to avoid being captured by criminals.

Check the thread here; link to CNN says that they didn’t know how many of the 109 got sent back and how many were let in.

That means the EO not only kept people off flights, but there was a reason to send some of the arrivals back where they came from!

And per Spicer, President Trump acted quickly, so as to not give the bad guys any advance notice.

I hope and pray no bad guys got thru.

Look at what happened in Canada...
