Some funny stuff at that tweet. I thoroughly enjoyed the rant about the white couple who went to the protests to aid and support the BLM thugs.
Only to have their car vandalized as a result.
Bwa ha.
Exactly. It ain’t what ya got. Just the guts to use what you have.
I got great satisfaction seeing the Koreans up on those rooftops with their weapons.
Fully believe in their right to protect their property.

The ROKs in ‘nam rarely took prisoners.
South Korean units were as tough and professional as any in the United States Army or Marines, and came to be justly feared by the communists. More than 300,000 Korean troops passed through Vietnam at some point, and more than 5,000 were killed.
Korean soldiers were highly motivated. Because of their own struggle with Stalinist North Korea, they hated communists. They were also tough. Each man was trained in the art of tae kwon do, with 30 minutes’ practice forming an integral part of morning physical training. They were also subjected to harsh discipline. Two soldiers who raped a Vietnamese woman were executed before their company.
I was with the 69th Armor of the 4th Inf Division in an operation with the 3rd Bn of the S.Korean Tiger regiment near the Cambodian border. They killed close to 200 VC when the VC launched an all out assault on their night defensive position. I think that they suffered no more than a handful of killed and wounded.
I never saw any finer bunch of highly motivated fighting men during my entire time in Vietnam.
:( Not sure what the post/ping you did was because it’s only showing up as an x in a box.

A lot of those “rooftop Koreans” were Korean War and Vietnam vets.
Good news. I can get 100% in cash before my errands. ;^)
“Rooftop Koreans are real Americans - business owners who did build that, and who aren’t going to allow a bunch of thugs to mess with their work.”
Amen. They are protecting their property. And if people recall the Rodney King riots, they shot to protect, they didn’t shoot to kill..
“Koreans have more balls than most of thie “collectors” on this forum that brags how many AR-15’s they own and all the ammo. Pistol and deer rifle. Done!”
Very true. We have some Korean-Amerians in our company militia. Our guys are all former military, and we did some volunteer work this weekend.

President Trump has made a gesture that because of the crackdown by China, the US would be willing to take a large number of Hong Kong residents (pop. 7.5m, and likely the cream of the crop of those in Macau pop. 700k as well).
We could get their wealthy, their white collar professionals, those with college degrees, etc.
While not exactly rooftop Koreans, after finding their economic footing in the US, they would probably hire rooftop Koreans.
I grew up in LA county. We knew our neighbors well. Probably the best neighbors we ever had. They were Koreans who had come here from Seoul with very little to their names and, by 1992, owned an entire block of Koreatown in LA. They loved their adopted country. I recently saw a photo of rooftop Koreans from the ‘92 LA riots and I can’t be sure because I haven’t seen them for so long, but I felt fairly sure the eldest son of our neighbors was in it.
Amen. They are protecting their property. And if people recall the Rodney King riots, they shot to protect, they didn’t shoot to kill..
Exactly. I just watched a great video on that Twitter feed at the link at the top of this thread, and learned all about the Rooftop Koreans who protected their property during the Rodney King riots. They were left with absolutely NO police nor National Guard protection, so they protected themselves.
