Gonna be a mess - got an excuse to agitate

[Great-Kazoo]

I saw the video and from what i saw it is infuriating..
Police Officers not listening to anyone or applying common sense?
This guy was not a threat...if this is not tyrany what is? To be honest though if they killed me like that, there would be no riots!
So, another tragedy turned a circus..
Ok...looks like National Guard is called in several states...But I have a hypothetical question...If stuff like that gets out of hand, how do we protect our homes, our daughters and our families? Wasnt the Socond Ammendment to ensure the functioning of a free state? Are we here going to be a bunch of AR clutching neurotics glued to social media? How do we organize guys? Who am I supposed to turn to if the stuff hits the fan and I have to hide my family from violent mobs and gangs??

Gman answered your question.

Here's food for thought.

All this protesting is probably funded by the drug cartels. A diversion enables the trafficking as I heard the COVID-19 was really bad for the narcotics trade. Hard to enforce the drug laws when this kind of rioting is going on. Even a US Customs drone was pulled from the border to monitor Minneapolis. There is always a hidden agenda behind every event, the MSM just spews the corporate/gov view. The protesters won't stop until they get massacred, probably in an act of terrorism by an agent provocateur.

LOL, if it's on Vox, it's probably a distraction and lie. I think it's far more likely these protests are being fostered by the same people who fostered Antifa and the Occupy movement -- and for the same reasons. Is it any coincidence that these protests are coordinated so quickly right in the middle of a political season? Antifa and Occupy were definitely movements sponsored to energize a segment of the usually-apathetic population and this one smells the same. The same segment that keeps saying, "never let a crisis go to waste."

Great action by the guy that moved in on the miscreant trying to "liberate" the AR. I'm sure that action saved some lives.

In nature, predators usually only target sick, elderly, separated and weak animals even though they are capable of taking on healthy adults. That's because a simple injury can terminate their life. People are no different.

Looters are no different. Some gun owners might imagine this post-dystopian world with roving gangs of people lead by guys named "Negan" going door to door to take the wimmen's and the food, but it's nothing more than a fantasy, for the same reason that some liberals imagine a post-gun world where all guns have been confiscated door-to-door. Unlike older forms of pillaging, firearms are a great equalizer and there's only a select number of houses a looter or even a mob of looters could sack before they ate lead, and they are quite aware of that.

So, they go after unguarded stores, things that are 100% safe from eating lead. If a bunch of koreans are on the roof with guns, they give that a berth. Life isn't a Netflix series, even the "bad guys" aren't too keen on risking their neck. If you're genuinely worried, just take down any signs that say "this house is completely unoccupied and unprotected and you won't risk your life by breaking in!". You know, like a bunch of faded "Hillary 2016" signs left in the yard. Don't have that? You good.

Do you know your neighbors? Do you know if they have guns and know how to use them? Any military vets living close by?

If it comes down to your neighborhood/street, you'll need to stand with your neighbors and coordinate to push back. I know who I will be talking to if it comes to that. I'm not going to be knocking on doors and trying to coordinate right now. I don't need the Sheriff coming by to ask me a lot of questions before there's an issue.

Thank you...Good point...just moved to Parker... No mil vets that I am aware, but i will start asking the right questions...Not afraid fot me..just concerned about my family...I have two pre-teen kids, a wife with a medical condition and a senior in my house...we are sitting ducks!!!

A chevy drove into a bunch of DPD officers, no video. At any rate, it's a black compact car missing a mirror and a bumper. BOLO. Probably hiding in a garage, though.

Kinda weak response from the rioters.

[crays]

To put it simply, as far as my opinion on the matter:

The public was tired of, and starting to see through the covid narrative being pushed by MSM and D.

Previous admin and current pols involvement in unsavory/illegal action being exposed.

The creepy old Joe scandal may have been gaining traction.

Society beginning to open back up and return to the real normal.

And, oh yeah, orange man bad.


Anyone really believe the worldwide coverage of this particular despicable and heinous action, and the ensuing chaos is not "engineered"?

Anyone recall hearing much about any of the other above issues on the news or socials or around the water cooler the last few days?

Here's a C&P from my local AzCDL page. AZCDL is like a RMGO. ONLY without the non-stop emails and THE SKY'S FALLING rhetoric. The only time i get emails is when a bill is made public. OR they raffle off a gun.






I would like to let everyone know that after last nights protest riot/ shooting here in AZ that I am safe. I was caught in this riot when I was working my night shift at the restaurant here in Scottsdale AZ when the rioters started spreading out from Phoenix to downtown Scottsdale.
I was outside during my smoke break when all the sudden the tear gas canisters were fired from the police and several police choppers with their lights on. I went back inside the restaurant to let my co workers and executive chef and restaurant owner.
We had to quickly evacuate the restaurant as the crowds were soon spilling towards our restaurant. I was then given the ok to bring my gun and have it on me. Thankfully the owner and pretty much everyone at work is pro gun and 4 other co workers of mine were also armed with handguns and rifles and I was
2 of the workers who carries around body armor protection nearby.

I was asked if I would escort the female workers to their cars as they knew I’m always armed. As the restaurant was closing up rapidly I stood outside to guard the place which I voluntarily did. Last night was one of the most tense times in my life where I had to prepare for unexpected violence.

In the past I’ve faced many dangerous situations from being held hostage at knifepoint as a kid during a violent home invasion to other encounters where I had to draw my firearm and tonight was the first time I had to deal with a large crowd of violent people.
I am grateful to have survived last nights chaotic ordeal as well as all the training I’ve received to handle worse case scenarios such as this.
Last night was also the first time I ever utilized my backpack body armor vest and the other tactical gear I always have on me.
Thankful to God that last night I did not have to fire any shots in defense and I could go home safely.
Would like to thank the members of both Phoenix and Scottsdale police department as they were stationed just outside the restaurant parking lot. I firmly believe in our constitutional rights of freedom of speech and the right to assemble and protest but please do so peacefully without violence. Once violence and looting become involved your cause and voice loses credibility.

While I'm sure that the actual events that lead up to the death of Mr Lloyd were unscripted and unplanned, the response by the media and the Antifa/Soros crowd is indeed 100% engineered. It doesn't take a tin foil hat to see that when you see pallets of bricks delivered in the dark of the night to areas where there would be protests ... when you see white guys in masks with earpieces smash the first windows, etc.

This is all part of the left's inability to accept the results of the 2016 election (although its been brewing for a lot longer).

Agreed. I sincerely hope no one reads my post and assumes that I feel the root incident was engineered. It is the overblown reaction to said incident.
