Black man shot in Kenosha, riots starting all over again...

[Cameramonkey]

exactly, I was pointing this out to some family that Kenosha is <1/2 the population of Fort Wayne....

But with people willing to pay to bus in protesters, size is irrelevant.

Everyone needs to listen to this podcast:

[Bill of Rights]

Rittenhouse did not call police. He called a friend and it was the friend who called 911.

Thank you for clarifying that, I had heard the report that that was who he called and did not take the time to double check that data. I appreciate the correction.

Blessings,
Bill

Yup. This pisses me off.

 

[churchmouse]

Yup. This pisses me off.

I have to bite my tongue on this one. Beyond Pi$$ed off.

The stupid just buried the meter.

 

[Bill of Rights]

Pardon me Bill, sir, but this claim is utter and complete bull****. Before resorting to using justifiable deadly force in self-defense, Rittenhouse attempted at least three times to flee engagement/altercation. He was chased all three times. He was never the initial aggressor. He did not "seek out" anything.

I welcome you to prove any evidence to the contrary.

Thanks for asking, Chip. I said what I said because he went there, armed, knowing the likelihood was high that he would need the gun. Whatever other purposes he had did not require a rifle.
Cleaning graffiti does not require a rifle.
Providing medical aid, in and of itself, does not require a rifle. In my time on the ambulance, there were some times I wished I could carry, but it was pointed out to me that if I needed the gun, I didn’t need to be there; that you protect yourself first (by absence) because there is nothing more useless than a dead medic; that the very first question is always always always, “Is the scene secure?” If the answer is no, you don’t belong there.

i have wondered but not asked who the hell asks a 17yr old kid to provide security for his car lot.... does the owner not sell enough cars to hire a real, bonded security agency??

All of this, to me says either that he was looking for a fight or knew the chance was high that one would find him.

To me, that leads to one conclusion: Stay the F away, especially if you’re going there on your own. Obv if you’re paid EMS, that is not a valid option.



Blessings,
Bill

How does one know when to have a gun? It would be super convenient to know.

It is better to have a gun in times of no trouble than to have trouble in times of no gun.

^^This.

By the definition BOR is using, all concealed carriers would be arrested because they had a gun and must have been looking for trouble. BS. This isn’t some town that is a cross country trip for him, something like 17ish miles. Maybe he had friends, family, or interests there. Maybe he didn’t, BF deal. This is still a free country, for now. We can’t get to used to ceding the town to bad actors. Going there prepared for trouble, if it came, and looking for a fight are two very different things. So far, I have seen nothing that would indicate to me that he was looking for trouble, or stated anything.

exactly my point. If it can happen there, it can happen anywhere...

 

[Bill of Rights]

How does one know when to have a gun? It would be super convenient to know.

I carry a gun and I do things in my life. The default is to carry, and I need a good reason not to do so, such as, “carrying a gun there is a felony”.

What I do not do is carry a gun “to” places. That is to say, I don’t decide to go somewhere, followed by the specific thought, “Better take my gun.” If I’m thinking that, I need to not go to that place.

I can’t tell you how to decide when you need a gun. I can only tell you how I decide which places I go and which I do not.

Hope that helps.

Blessings,
Bill

This! I don't need a pistol to go to the store, but you can bet your ass I have one.

Some conservative websites say the alleged shooter of the 5 yr old boy has a GoFundMe. Other sites say that's fake news.

Looks like they might have finally deleted it.
It shows up on the search, but when you click on it, nothing.
