I don’t have an issue with your clarification - it’s always a good idea to be prepared to defend yourself - but I still think your original post was out of line.

On Greta last night the fire department and police department were marching with the teachers union in “solidarity”. I believe it was in Wisconsin.

Besides just checking the sign up date, it is prudent to examine past posts. OldNewYork is not a troll. Many have similar sentiments of self defense when confronted by violent mobs.

Exactly. Likely from all over: IN, IL, MI, OH, etc. (maybe even NYC).

“I don’t have an issue with your clarification - it’s always a good idea to be prepared to defend yourself - but I still think your original post was out of line.”

Fair enough. I could have been clearer. Taking it from the public government buildings to private property though is a serious escalation. It’s as if someone were breaking into your house - laws will vary on what amount of force is allowable, and I’m not from Wisconsin nor do I know what the law is for that state. I did say neutralize however, which I thought would indicate that it’s not necessarily lethal force required.

I understand what you meant. Just keep in mind there are other media sources who like to excerpt FR posts out of context for the purpose of smearing the site & its owner.

You can also listen via the Internet at Radio Reference.
Look down the page and you'll see 4 links to police & fire ... to listen, just click a "speaker" icon in the listen column.
Sounds pretty quiet to me.

If the police are marching with the union, then it’s time to call the WI National Guard.

Its time to whip out the domestic terrorists laws on the goons, right obama?

Or do those apply to those on the Left?

I’m sure they’re just looking for public restrooms.
