They are well armed and everyone needs to start admitting they are definitely not cowards.

We'll see once a number of them see their friends get shot dead on the streets.

Some may say that the AK wielder should have been allowed the first shot, before being shot down. And what if that first shot had killed the driver?

If someone is pointing an AK at you they are not trying to shake your hand.

I am not saying the driver was not justified.

I do not think a Texas grand jury will indict him.

I am saying the guy with the AK did not fire any shots.

That is what the police are saying.

The police seem to be doing their job, as hobbled as they are by the Austin government and Mayor.

The police department in Austin has about 2,643 personnel and a budget of over 400 million dollars!

Brian Manley is Chief of the Austin, Texas, Police Department. He leads a department of 2,646 sworn law enforcement and support personnel who carry out police operations within the City of Austin, as well as the Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, city parks and lakes, and municipal courts. With an annual budget of $402 million, APD serves Austin’s diversified population in the 11th largest city in the United States. The APD is a data driven and intelligence led policing organization focused on the tenets of Community Policing.

The Austin population is 2.275 million. Much larger than I thought.

It is a big city!

Strangely the CNN article on this is relatively honest. Wow. I didn’t know they had it in them.

5 Shots Driver 3 Shots someone shooting at car. The last time a protester opened up and fired at car two people where shot in the crowd.

This is getting dangerous, where protesters think they can shoot at any car they want, for any reason they want.

He already looks like a pasty white ghost in that photo. Just a bit early.

I suppose taking a snapshot of the license plate and avoiding any possibility of collateral damage was beyond the ken of the protesters?

Have you also noticed that they immediately back off when serious force is used (i.e.: lethal force)?

They are currently fearless because they have very little to worry about regarding opposition.

I crack up when conservatives say a CWII with liberals would be easy. They are well armed and everyone needs to start admitting they are definitely not cowards. I have never seen conservatives throwing molatov cocktails at their opponents or going up against police as they have.

It's easy to put on a brave face when dealing with police who have been neutered by their political bosses. But when the bullets start flying their way, they'll be crying like little girls.

“We’ll see once a number of them see their friends get shot dead on the streets.”

So, when our conservative, silent majority men going to fight back? If they have not fought back so far when?

So far zip aero nada. I asked some of my old car buddies who live in the NYC burroughs-old school Italian, Polish, rugged old country europeans who I thought were tough when they were going to take back their streets.

Oh I can loose my job, Don’t want to get in to trouble, I’m moving out soon blah blah blah.

Again the antifa and far lefties are not showing any cowardice so far in my opinion. I have to respect them in a way they are going to town and giving a fight.

Shots fired is rapidly rising. The shooting has begun. Assume a commie is armed. Act accordingly.

I live in the suburbs of deep blue Seattle. Yes, they have weapons, and bravado (which is easy when you know you wont get fired for being arrested) ... but they also dont show up at the gun ranges practicing their skills. Was at the range yesterday working on zeroing the laser on my wifes Shield 2.0 with a Crimson Trace. Came preinstalled, and it was off by more than 10 feet at 5 yards. Then I think of all the protestor videos where you see the lasers dancing around. Yeah, they may hit me with a laser, but chances are that is exactly how I want them to aim at me (if they do aim at me) if things go down ... because my laser will be zeroed. Keep in mind, these are the same mensa candidates that think holding your gun sideways is a better way to shoot.

Doesn’t matter if he fired or not, he was a threat and deserved to be killed.
