How do we know that he wasn't reaching for a gun when he leaned into the vehicle? You have to be monumentally stupid to do what that guy did and NOT expect the cops to take you out, but it didn't require that many bullets to stop the guy. That struck me as excessive. 2 1

Most Americans could get on board with the bulk of that statement if they could only bring themselves to condemn the burning of our cities. But they can't. TDS is a very dangerous condition when suffering from it causes you to do things that are far worse than Trump could ever dream of doing. 2

They truly see words as violence and as no different than if a Trump supporter had actually assaulted them physically. Therefore, in their reality, wearing a MAGA hat = getting punched in the face by the person wearing a MAGA hat. This has been coming for well over a decade as young people emerge from college campuses that encourage this warped mindset. 1 2

As I posted earlier, this is so reminiscent of the "It's okay to punch a Nazi" bullsh*t from the left in 2017. They are dumbfounded when you call them on it. 2

Sig1Hunter Posted August 25, 2020 Posted August 25, 2020 Reports on the Jacob Blake shooting from a witness quoted in this article (you gotta wade through piles of irrelevant trash to find it) say that the officers identified Blake in possession of a knife. Attempts to tase him and control him were unsuccessful. A still shot from the video appears to show something that could be a knife in his left hand as he rounds the front of the car. https://chicago.suntimes.com/metro-state/2020/8/24/21399620/kenosha-shooting-jacob-blake-neighbors-witnesses-protests ‘“One witness, who did not want his name used but said he had an unobstructed view of the events leading to the shooting, said Blake pushed past police and that’s when they struck him with Tasers. “He didn’t even flinch,” the witness said. “He just kept walking.” Blake tried to climb into his car, that’s when a police officer grabbed him, the witness said. “They start to wrestle,” the witness said. “The officer is punching on him. Two officers come to assist. They get him down on the curb behind his vehicle. Somehow he manages to get up. They said he has a knife. All of the officers pull out their guns. ... (One of the officers) tells him, ‘Get out of the car!’ and he starts shooting.”’
