I recall watching video from one of the “peaceful protests” where a guy came up behind a police officer and clocked him in the head with a baseball bat.
I would have had no problem if they had shot that guy dead. Honestly. THAT is a threat.
Not this “we feared for our lives” BS from these people in DC.
“I would have had no problem if they had shot that guy dead.”
I have a bit of a personal connection with that lot of terrorists in Portland.
In July of 2019, before all the crap about Floyd they used as an excuse to riot, I was coming off of “Hospital Hill” in Portland. It is a steep down hill run that dumps you off under a sign that says “city center.” I was the lead car of 4 or 5 that all left the hospitals at the end of visiting hours.
I went into the city center and ANTIFA was out in the street trying to stop cars. Not very smart of them but there they were.
I shoot combat pistol comp, I carry on permit and had to fully stoked kimber comp pistols withing reach. I reached and got them ready, turned on my emergency flashers, stood on the horn and floored my vehicle.
All of the vehicles behind me followed me through and those big bad ANTIFA folks got the hell out of my way.
The worst thing that could have happened for them is if they had managed to stop me I had already decided that I would not stand down and be attacked or murdered.
We stopped and talked about it, the other vehicles and I, and it turned out we were all vets coming down the hill from the veterans hospital and we were all armed.
ANTIFA’s crap started way before Floyd died and they have not stopped after Biden was elected.
I guess they will stop when someone draws a chalk line around them.
