"Strange times. The left is going to defend the 2nd amendment."

And Republicans are going to present the 2nd amendment as a threat to public safety. Albeit it seems a dwindling number of Republicans.

I think there will soon be an inflection point, where Republicans begin fleeing like rats off the sinking MAGA ship.

"Doesn't matter, commiting a felony, the push of the officer, while armed overrides 2A rights. It's a very serious matter."

Sure.

Got it.

Had he been hauled off with a criminal charge of impeding federal officers...who cares. He probably was. But unless the Police thought he was wearing a suicide vest, they don't have much of an argument for shooting him.

And who knows, maybe the Police will make the claim that he could have been employing tactics common to Islamic terrorists. For Renee Goode, that would have been a real possibility. Europe was closing down Christmas markets out the fear that terrorists may use vehicles to mow down crowds.

"Tomorrow the Mad King most likely will feel differently."

I was thinking about you the other day. I was with some co-workers up in Norway discussing the Greenland thing. They're all fighter pilots. I told them, the US news is basically like barrage jamming-you know what that is-elevate the noise floor to obscure the actual threat picture. And it's working.

I have no idea what is actually going on in the US. I feel like all the major news networks just want controversy. And I get it, that sells adds. That gets clicks. And whether it's MSNBC or OANN, Trump loves it. There is no bad publicity if you're a reality TV star. There are plenty of YouTubers who have made their names by doing really stupid ----. That's what people want to see.

BTW, the current generation of radar jammers are SICK! If you still had access to classified networks, you'd be both amazed and amused.

The world will be a much safer place when all of those countries who looked towards the US to bolster their security begin to develop their own nuclear weapons.

"He obstructed an officer of the law without saying he was armed, with a concealed weapon."

Was that weapon on him when he was shot? Did he threaten the Police with it?

"Tragic, all because a person brought a concealed weapon to a protest, which is his right, but doesn't absolve someone from being irresponsible."

Including the Police?

I've worked with CBP and other federal agencies for years, and they were extremely professional. I have never leaned in favor of protesters, because most of them just seem to be attention hounds. Pull out your cell phone and get clicks. I'm beginning to question the professionalism and standards of DHS, and it sucks.

"He didn't brandish the weapon, but he did conceal and bring one, causing more risk to him and community."

..said every progressive anti-gun activist. Ever.
