“another KENT STATE moment happens so they can exploit it and denigrate the National Guard...”

Exploit what? After Kent State, Nixon won in a landslide.

I was a kid in Dayton OH when the riots broke out in 1967-68. I would say in terms of spread nationwide, these riots are about the same. The biggest difference is few localities tolerated the riots and there were literally tanks in the street and guardsmen on every corner. Liberal politicians may have sympathized with the goals of the rioters but there was pretty much zero tolerance for the rioters themselves. The riots, because they were met with force, did not simmer for months. The riots in Detroit were the most devastating of that era and the city never recovered from them.

So rioters get shot, and NOW the police want to intervene.

What were they doing before shots were fired?

“The thugs chasing him to catch him will have an easy out...”

I don’t think so. They weren’t law enforcement and didn’t have a right or duty to take the shooter down...especially since at least one had a gun (eventual hamburger arm guy). Once he fell and was attacked, the running shooter had every right to defend himself. One of the attacking rioters (white pants/dark blue top guy) actually attempted a running head kick once the guy was on the ground.

close ups are good to even if blurred.....you see here this guy had his gun pulled running into this...I believe he was shot by the dude on his back,or possibly by the thug trying to disarm him.....So he was armed and lunged at a man armed with a rifle and he got shot.

At any rate false reporting saying the chasers were not armed..clearly they were.

The looters and rioters aren’t any better than the cops.

Care to rephrase that?

This could also be a case where the guy’s trigger happy....I’ve seen enough to say it’s possible.

The Daily Mail has excellent stills and video on the action on the street. A big guy struggles with the man with the rifle and begins to beat him down with a skateboard. He is shot in the chest and staggers off and dies. Then the "Paramedic" comes for some and gets his arm blow up. The Mail has a picture of him holding his blown up arm showing that he has a pistol in his hand! So apparently he was going to kill the shooter.

Anyway, the only decision the shooter had was whether to be present with the gun in the first place. But otherwise he was just defending himself.

I’m the videos saw early this am, it appears that he came out of the dealership and a rioter threw a Molotov cocktail at him before he started running. The rioters were trying to set fire to the dealership when this started.

Is the “red circled gun” guy also the “eventual hamburger-arm” guy? It may be...because the hamburger-arm had pistol.

Another note...you asked about all of the skateboarders. While the skateboards are good to get around on, they are also weapons. These skateboarders will use their skateboards to beat your brains out in a second. If you see a skateboarder coming towards you...automatically think “armed assailant” and be ready to defend yourself.

BTW...you are doing great coverage on this stuff. And you’re not even there!

“...what the hell did looting a car shop have to do with protesting a shooting...”


The answer, as you well know, is nothing. But see how the media has gotten you to accept the idea that this is all a part of a “protest” and not a riot or revolution, which is really what is going on here.
