"... a man entered with a gun around 11 p.m. fired a shot into the air and told everyone to get on the ground."

He made his entry and his exit all in one dumbass move!

A Baltimore TV station tweeted out about two shootings in Anne Arundel County to start the new year.

One was a cop who shot a dog that had attacked someone.

If that’s the case, I was involved in about 100 shootings a couple days before. I killed several pieces of paper at the range.

Fake news being fake news.

Box checked. Shooting justified. Goodnight, funnyman.

In this case, the Cop was black and this neighborhood is heavily black and suffers (surprise) from very high crime.

The perp looks white to me in the video. Freepers, of course, are happy to support law-abiding folks of every race protecting themselves and their property with the exercise of their God-given 2nd Amendment rights.

We could stop at all's well that ends well, but the cop's first shot seemed wild, before he got on target.

Fired before he had a grip?

I’m sure the guy was shot and killed here in Atlanta. It’s the lack of distinction between “armed man” which could be anyone with a carry license here in GA and “armed robber” which they didn’t mention until the body of the article that annoyed me.

That’s what I was responding to. The way the media twists words and meaning. Armed man vs robber and shooting of a dog equated with shooting a human.

Considering the number of people in the store at the time, that was a risky shooting......

Was it less risky that giving a criminal with a gun a free hand?

Hint: When a drugged up madman waves a gun at a crowd and says "GET DOWN!" it's not an invitation to jump up and start dancin'!

Hint 2: In combat, the side with the initiative usually wins...

The media lies from suppression of facts to distortions to outright fiction. They're nothing but the publicity arm of the Democrat party. I wonder how thoroughly they've thought their position through. Suppose they and their accomplices in the deep state are successful in deposing Trump on a series of obviously false charges. What then? Do they think that we'll go "Oh well win some lose some." and bow down to let them put their chains on us? They probably do. I suspect that won't happen.

I'm pretty sure that there will be some of the 62million Trump voters who when the legitimate results of the ballot box are stolen from them will resort to the bullet box, and I suspect that not just prominent Democrats will be in the crosshairs, but media types and Democrat donors as well.

The Soviet army had a policy of shooting anyone with a camera.

I suspect we will see a LOT of reporters and reporterettes lose their heads (so to speak) live on camera.

When they succeed in provoking a wacko to try to (or God forbid!, succeed in) assassinate Trump, those years of spreading lies and propaganda and trying to destroy everything we hold dear will have consequences.

I pray to God that we never see the first part of your statement, because I don't want to have to face the second part.

No matter what, it will end badly, because once the dawgs of war are running, we may win, but there will be so much blood and sorrow, that no family will be spared.

"armed man"

I notice the Urinal conveniently left out the part about the perp firing a shot upon entering the store. You have to read the police report to catch that fact...

AJC version: "... a man entered with a gun around 11 p.m. and told everyone to get on the ground..."

Now read the police release...

HUGE DIFFERENCE.

That’s what I thought!

I love a happy ending, but it looks like the officer did a spray and pray.

Yes. But there are things worse than war.

Perhaps. But the high shot could have been a last millisecond deflection to avoid the civilian who crowded the doorway in an attempt to escape.

Could have been.

But given the minimal range time an average cop has, it’s probably not the way to bet.

‘For the cost of a few bullets, this guy will not rob again, taxpayers will not have to support him, he will not reproduce again, all positives. Good news to start the year.’

Again, a good guy with a gun takes out a bad guy with a gun. Why oh why can’t the dems see this????? Because they don’t want to I guess and they want a totally subservant electrotate.

Very true. Something that the left either doesn't believe will happen or simply doesn't care. We sure aren't the ones pushing the country down this road. I suspect that the left thinks their beloved thugs in blue will simply kill all of us who stand in their way while they sip their lattes and type slogans on their keyboards. If only 1% of Trump supporters take up arms that's over 600,000 unwilling to lie down and accept the jackboot on their necks. That adds up to a LOT of casualties on both sides

The intelligent plan is to retake the Justice Dept and put massive numbers of "progressives" in jail as they break the law. The leftists believe that their violence is justified therefore their masks and bicycle lock beatings are justified. IF the law was correctly enforced, large numbers of the leftists would already have been arrested and prosecuted.

Obama was setting up the country for a revolution where the good guys would have been arrested when vigilante justice would have been necessary. Instead, let's get a real Attorney General and start arresting them for:

1. Antifa Crimes

2. Email/Purgery crimes

3. Spygate crimes (with subjects all the way to Obama arrested, tried and convicted)

4. Violent protests in the street

5. Scams such as climate change that are RICO conspiracies that will be easily prosecuted.

The list is so long that we'll begin to wonder if we have enough prisons to hold all of the traitors and their useful idiots. It's important to be smart and get the leftist traitors in prison, not good Americans who were being set up.
