Are you comfortable where you are typing this from? Cause this kid’s facing prison for life.

until it’s a real war where I can’t get arrested and spend the rest of my life in prison I’m not shooting anybody and I’m certainly not showing up in any liberal City to die or go to prison for it.

You are supposing there is only one way to organize and resist. In this case the thing we can all do right now is get ready to write checks to his legal defense fund so he can have competent legal counsel. That made all the difference when the state of Florida tried to railroad George Zimmerman with fake news stories, fake evidence, and apparently a fake witness.

The next step is to organize and combat the fake news already being pumped out about the case, and the now common tactic of attacking conservatives, and in this case people who try to stop rioting and arson, with bogus legal charges.

>>Cause this kid’s facing prison for life.<<
The kid will probably not be convicted of 1st degree murder. He was attacked by multiple rioters.

He was 17 - not sure what he was doing with a long gun.
Secondly - He was out during a curfew. Also put himself in the position to get into trouble.

That said, he was retreating. He was assaulted a couple of times even before he tripped in the middle of the street and assaulted by a couple of dudes.

The 17 year old will have a long road through the court system and will likely dole out $20K or more in defense.

Some of the lyrics from the song “Silent Running” by Mike + The Mechanics

“...Swear allegiance to the flag
Whatever flag they offer
Never hint at what you really feel
Teach the children quietly
For some day sons and daughters
Will rise up and fight while we stand still...”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ddi2TBnzdPo

That young man is someone’s son and his parents have every right to be proud of him, IMHO. Worried but proud. He was willing to go “stand in the gap” “while we stand still”. I’m sure the Kenosha DemocRATS will persecute him to high heaven but I’m sure he will get good legal representation and will be found to have acted in self defense.

As soon as I see a fundraising effort for him, I’ll contribute. He deserves it!

You can get arrested in a real war.

Speaking in defense of this kid and urging all to be tough for the winter is not hypocritical the way you are implying. If someone is comfortable when typing that doesn’t mean he hasn’t been uncomfortable in the past or won’t be in the future. This young man needs to hear from many that we support him.

As mentioned legal support as well as financial and psychological (praise, prayer, defending him publicly) are all valuable and those offering that support are doing the right thing.

What is a "real war"? And which real war is it that you "can't get arrested"?

You say you're a NYer, huh, tough guy?

1,200 Antifa/BLM marched through my small town twice and were met by armed men standing before their homes and businesses. The marches passed through quickly and quietly.

Maybe tough decisions for all of us here on FR.

I wonder if it is just talk and blustering and people will give in and submit when forced into a corner. It is different when you are shooting at people or being shot at.

My wife and have pondered the question... should we just hide out or join if and when the SHTF. There is safety in numbers.

I'm comfortable with what he wrote - "they" will blame the guy with the gun, but the truth is that the anarchists started the attack on an armed, obeying-the-law, citizen and if I'm on the jury, after watching the video, the young man goes free.

Eliminating all risk isn't living, it's its own form of slavery and it's exactly what "they" want us to do.
