From what I can see looking at their tweets and such, this Niskanen outfit isn’t so much “lefty” as NeverTrump libertarians. But I admit I’m not familiar

As for Niskanen’s Jerry Taylor, who wrote about brain splattering the couple who defended their house, I’ll bet he regrets spending his weekend on twitter!

As would many of the people outside, the homeowners were scared to death, nobody should be put in this position with non-responsive police ignoring 911 calls. The lack of immediate response infuriates me - a good campaign theme to get soccer moms on board with law and order.

Plenty of lefties can’t believe that they haven’t been arrested yet for pointing guns at people,

Yeah, it's a sticky wicket. It turns out they are BLM supporting demonicRATS. It's a kind of immunity. Kind of like a black person being allowed to say the "n" word.

The Tueller Drill is a self-defense training exercise to prepare against a short-range knife or melee attack when armed only with a holstered handgun.

Sergeant Dennis Tueller of the Salt Lake City Police Department wondered how quickly an attacker with a knife, or other melee weapon, could cover 21 feet (6.4 m), so he timed volunteers as they raced to stab the target. He determined that it could be done in 1.5 seconds. These results were first published as an article in SWAT magazine in 1983 and in a police training video by the same title, “How Close Is Too Close?”[1][2]

Yes, we know.

So do they.

That is why they had their guns.

Yeah, good luck wiff dat. Homeowner had 30 rounds loaded. Should have had his first two or three targets in mind. Then, see who scatters, and who advances. Get to the door, and more ammunition.

I suspect that this guy is trying to get someone martyred. Someone else, of course.

Lefty think tank president says he’d have rushed St. Louis homeowners and beaten their brains in

This brainiac must think the homeowner was holding an imaginary "Biden AR14".

Jerry looks like he works out but, if Jerry had rushed me I don’t think he would wake up in a hospital.

Given the size of the crowd and the pack mentality that seems to go with it, Jerry’s family would be distraught because they couldn’t attend his funeral...

Talks cheap when it ain’t you standing in the street facing an armed home owner.

Jerry Taylor sounds like he wants to be the next poster child for gun sales. The left still fails to grasp the meaning of the 2A.

Don’t think maw and paw with the shootin’ irons have spent too much time at the range, either. Check maw’s finger on the trigger. Paw ain’t too much better.

Heck, they could try out for a part on Law & Order SVU...

This guy used to be a CATO dude. Apparently he went insane, embraced global warming hysteria, and now advocates for a carbon tax. He’s such a brave guy, online, yet he protected his tweets because, fragile ego and all...

I hope Jerry Taylor is ready to take a couple rounds in the chest if he ever decides to stop playing twitter tough-guy and actually “rush a homeowner and beat his brains in.”

The intent to beat someone’s brain in justifies their intent to use lethal force to defend their lives.

Now if they just got better training on how to safely hold and handle firearms, that would be great. They’ll want that training should they ever actually need to fire on some idiot rushing them to beat their brains in.

He’s a libertarian, not a “lefty”.

I would tell him that it is a great idea, he should try that!

Jerry Taylor is all hat and no cattle. He would run away screaming like a little girl.
