That’s what I thought. A few years back there was a man in New York and he killed his apartment manager in the elevator. He was dressed like an exterminator although his head was not covered and he sprayed her with a liquid and then set her on fire it was caught on tape in the elevator he was black.
In those circumstances, even if armed, I’m not sure if the target (any target) would have realized the danger in time...
Once you’re burning, it’s really hard to defend yourself.
I guess you mean if the victim was black it would be a hate crime because he was made to turn on his own people by the usual nefarious individuals, who must be sought out and punished. That’s about where we’re at.
And its obvious this black guy had been planning to set a white person on fire for a while. He had his matches and gasoline ready to go. All he needed was a white person to diss him to give him the excuse to light up a white guy.
Agreed. Pests respond well to high-velocity lead injections.
I carry everywhere and have hollow point for just such actions by these leeches of society.Urban outdoorsmen as Boortz would say.
In the dark, a shovel of stars overhead for keeps, the people march.
Where to? What next?
... ‘course, that was a lefty sentiment from Sandburg, but everything stands on its head these days.

“I’m paranoid. But am I paranoid enough?” I’m not saying I could or would have escaped an attack like this, but I wonder. I sure would have been on the lookout for the guy. Maybe I wouldn’t even have gone into the store. Don’t know.

agreed.
Just because you are paranoid doesn’t mean you are not being followed. Old joke maybe..
Give this despicable man the max, and he won’t have to panhandle again. He’ll get his three sops and a flop in prison.
The poor guy is one year younger than me and I am sure that I would not have made it through this attack.
While it seems that a firearm wouldn’t have changed the outcome, this is one more reason that I NEVER leave my home without my CC, NEVER.
Re: Silver and gold have I none, but here’s some lead for your a-s.

I wonder who is promoting that?
A close family friend, white in his 60's, waiting at a bus stop not far from our home was set upon by several black punks. They doused him with some gasoline and set him afire. Barely survived. Third degree burns over much of his upper body, endured a couple years of skin grafts and therapy but lost use of one arm. He would often take my hand to his neck, telling me I was rubbing his ass because that's where the skin graft came from. White victim, black perps.
From another direction: After seeing someone do that to another human being, how could you, a witness to the crime, be justified in not blowing the perps brains out? He was, after all, in the act of using deadly force against someone, and was even eyeing you or someone else quite menacingly, with his lighter fluid and lighter in hand, youd say.
