Take that video down now! Who’s side are you on?

If you look at other videos online, there are a couple dozen people recording everything on their cell phones the whole time (probably a little jumpy while bullets are flying). Anything that incriminates decent people was probably also recorded by and will be released by Antifa terrorists.

“Like said....not much brain matter on the streets of these riots.”


If they keep up this violence, there assuredly will be a lot of brain matter on the streets. Not very high quality, mind you, but lots will be there.

Those are excellent photos and video. If police want to identify the shooter, they will. I expect the thugs to Dox him almost immediately. Also, it looks like it was a good shoot. He was being actively attacked by an armed mob of violent criminals.

A democrat prosecutor may analyze shot by shot and question a few of the shots, but I doubt that he'll get convicted (just bankrupted with legal fees). The world is better off without the two terrorists he removed, but he would be much better off without having been in that situation.

Note: I've been in a position where I could legally have fired (multiple home invaders, police VERY slowly on their way . . . 20 minutes later), and the world would have been a better place without the criminals I was facing. I chose not to pull the trigger because there is a difference between being legally permitted to shoot and really having to shoot. I'm still not sure I made the right call, and I wonder what choice this guy would make if he could have a do-over.

“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 didn’t say they were logical. They attempted to use Kent State as some big awful thing. Oh clutch the pearls-the military is being used to kill our “peaceful protesting” students. The LSM propaganda still tries to act like it was some sort of big goof a horror that must not be repeated. They try to use anything they can to create division and chaos. It makes no sense to me. At the time I just thought it was stupid for kids to throw stuff at people with guns-play stupid games-pay the price.

They use stuff like George Floyd to get chaos going and stoke anti-police sentiment. In other countries, they have dressed up like Government forces and had massacres of civilians to turn the people against their government and bring down a regime.

There is exploitation of anything they can to cause disorder and chaos and keep people divided. Organized Anarchists, Revolutionaries-Commies whatever you want to call them. They always have some sort of exploitation that they do to try and cause internal trouble in a country.

Why are Mayors and Governors tying police hands and doing so little to stop this violence? It certainly is not helping them-law abiding people are turning against them. It is being exploited to create chaos—why they think that helps them-just as stupid now as they were then.

More stupid games-may they get the “reward” they deserve. If not in this life- then when the roll is called up yonder.

The riots weren’t tolerated because at that point in time the WW2 vets were the backbone of society - they were in their late 40s and 50s for the most part, they were the people in charge or the people that pulled their strings. They weren’t going to put up with that kind of crap - not in the country that they had fought and bled for, and seen a lot of their buddies killed for.

Regrettably, those people are mostly gone now, 50 years later (and I miss them terribly - they were quite entertaining, and not afraid of anything). So we’re in for a rather different scenario...in a nation with 500 million+ firearms.

“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.”


Well, officer, I’ve seen plenty of videos of skateboarders using their skateboards as weapons, and seeing this guy coming at me like that ***I WAS AFRAID FOR MY LIFE.***

I have seen at least 30 video’s online of the shooter online before the shooting occurred. He answers questions to a the streamer or person filming from their phones in several of them. There are likely hundreds of screen shots of the individual. Poor guy is going to be identified if he has not already.

Alone even armed, you are in a world of hurt. If you are going to protect your business form a militia and train.
Form a bond with your militia men so they give a sh$t about you.
Travel in groups and cover each other. This guy was alone and thus he was perceived as vulnerable so they attacked him. A larger group would have been respected.
Of course he gave much better than he got but it could have very easily gone the other way...

I hear you...it seems like these days, even on FR, one has to cater to those with eggshell-thin personalities. Oh, well.

But thanks for the video.

It makes perfect sense when you factor in that the politicians are working hand in glove behind the scenes with the rioters and the police are not sincere about stopping the riots. Both the police and the people’s elected representatives know full well these are riots, not “protests”. ____________________________________________
I believe it might be “Athens Georgia” time. If the mayor, the town council and the Police Chief are all in on it, it is time to remove them and ask for Federal intervention.

It looks like the guy in this story (probably a good guy) shot three Antifa/BLM terrorists, in self defense. Looks like he got two in the head, one in the chest.

One armed civilian sent a mob of hundreds scurrying like cockroaches. A forceful armed response the first night of the Minneapolis riots and none of this would have happened. Politicians and cowardly police chiefs have given the mob a green light to loot and destroy. Only armed force will end this madness.
*******************************************************************************
Yep. And it should have been nipped in the bud.

Speaking as someone who had a great grandfather murdered by the NKVD, and roughly half of his extended family imprisoned for 3 generations in the giant open-air prison known as the USSR, all I have to say is that I think that General Pinochet was a wise man:

Can’t something be done to these POS governors?

Homeowners, should visit his home... protest at his home. Stay on their asses, somehow. Meetings. Raise hell, within the limits of the law.
Sue their ass if they call in the militia against them.

Leaders are not protecting us from criminals... BECAUSE THEY HATE TRUMP!

They’re making us having to protect ourselves and possibly a dead victim, or the one arrested.

AND THEY BLAME TRUMP!
