Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

I was curious why he singled out that guy to be the bullet sponge. Now it's apparent why. I wonder if those knives(?) were collected at the scene by the PD?

Well, what did everyone expect?

Yup.

One thing I think we can all take away from this and other recent incidents- stay the hell away from these situations.

Chaos is coming.
Dont go to it.
Let it come to you.




If the triggerman in this situation would have stayed away from the area he would be at home with his wife instead of sharing a cell with Bubba right now.
We all hate what is happening right now and we all want to see a stop put to this BS.
But right now the scales are not tipped in our favor. It would not have mattered one iota if this man would have been sitting at a light in his car minding his own business and was drug out of it by protesters, beaten like Reginald Denny and with his dying breath shot one of the perps.
He "attacked" the "peaceful protestors", regardless of what the facts are.
It wouldn't matter if this guy was protecting a bus full of nuns from being gang raped by the mob.
He was wrong.
The media will spin it that way.

Keep your mind in the middle and stay frosty.

He was also the guy who had just hit him in the head with a skateboard, every bit as deadly as a baseball bat. You can see the skateboard in mid air in that pic.

I think his right hand is just in the foreground of his belt. I don't know what's in his left hand, but am pretty confident that it's not a comb.

ETA: There's also video of him pulling a protester to the ground prior to the attack. As in most every case, it appears to be one that everybody has shit on their face. I wonder what the DA will do with it. Because his earlier action constitutes a potential chargeable assault, it could potentially revoke his self-defense affirmative defense to the latter act, but NM law is in question so who knows. He (shooter) definitely escalated in the first instance. It also doesn't take a genius to know that pulling a gun amid protesters is very unwise for a ton of reasons, even if they are trying to whack you.

Not condemning anyone but if you are carrying you should never, under any circumstances, escalate a situation or make it physical. I think it certainly does dampen your defense argument. You want to always be able to show you avoided confrontation at all costs until your life was on the line or the likelihood the court wont side with you goes way up

That being said I dont know all the facts so perhaps the facts are it was escalated outside of his control.

I dunno about anyone else, but I find myself much more on my P's and Q's when carrying. At least, I'm more aware of it.
