Laz, I have a friend who lives in the area. He told me last night that at one point over a hundred of the rioters approached a neighborhood away from the principle streets associated with the unrest..
They were met by around fifty men from that neighborhood armed with weapons from handguns up to AR-15s and hunting rifles. These residents fired their weapons into the air when the rioters approached with a significant discharge for a minute or so. The rioters turned away and went back.
Same type of thing happened during the LA riots when they tried to expand. With the same results.
If the Police and Guard are not out there in sufficient numbers to quell this, then the law abiding citizens will...and should...band together to protect their own.
That’s a big part of the second amendment...to allow citizens to be prepared to defend themselves against tyranny like this...whether domestically generated or generated by others coming here from outside our borders.
Obama, through his words and actions, is instigating and promoting both forms.
...and Theodore, IMHO, in situations like this, CNN polls are something you should use in the bathroom when you are finished and need to clean yourself up.
NICE REPORT
This is why they want to take our guns.
So we can be victimized.
Wow! This story deserves a thread of its own!
When Fox reported the gunfire this is what I thought was happening. Thanks for the confirmation.
Too bad the police were not allowed such tactics.
