Good dude with level-headed opinions




It’s been a weird last 8 or so months, and not looking like it’ll let up anytime soon.

Wish everyone on both sides took a step back and asked “wtf are we doing.”

That feels accurate.

But that has nothing to do with whether this is murder or not.

You can be 100% correct while this is still a criminal shoot.

He wasn’t that terribly confrontational leading up to it. I think he was filming and waving traffic like a dork.

ICE agent is aggressive af.

The deceased is taken to the ground after this gif ends. The start of that is in the gif.

He’s not even really resisting. It’s slippery out there. They don’t really try to cuff him. Just take him down. Which is fine.

But then they cannot take his legal weapon and fill him with lead while he’s prone/on his hands and knees.

Does he even attempt to do anything with the gun? It’s just on him as he gets taken down and beat. Then they take it.

Why kill him then?

the shots are fired immediately after the ICE agent disarms the suspects gun and runs away with it.

All I can figure is the ICE agent that started shooting saw the ICE agent pull the gun out of the guys waistband and panicked and started firing because he didn't know that it was his own agent that had pulled it out.

Are you saying you shouldn’t carry on the off chance that 8 officers try to gang bang you on the sidewalk?



You are so dishonest.

The dude never gets the attention if LEO if he doesn't interfere trying to save some illegal predators, rapists, etc. He died for some illegals that wouldn't piss on him if he were on fire.

I conceal carry often, and you want to know why I have no fear of being shot by LEO?

Bro have you watched the clip? What the frick could he have done differently?

He’s in the goddam fetal position until they shoot him they’re not even trying to get him flat or cuff him

The only smart thing any of the officers do is disarm him, but they were still searching him for the gun AFTER he was dead in the street which means the guy who disarmed him clearly didn’t communicate that fact very well

Dude give me a break. If a guy has 7-8 federal officers on him and they can’t contain him he’s clearly resisting arrest.

When the Dems try and round up the Christians in a few years, I expect all of the concealed carriers to sit idly by and let it happen. I know the whole reason the 2A exists is to protect against a tyrannical government but if a LEO says it’s time to arrest Christians, then you just have to get out of their way and let them.

A dead communist? Oh well.

I think I’ll go make some hot chocolate and watch the rain.

From what i've seen so far, that looks like what happened.

I don't see the gif, but I can only surmise that the combination of MN officials calling for violence, examples of violence, and the guy bringing a gun to frick with LEO, human nature takes control.
That is fine

But doesn’t even come close to absolving an agent for wha very may well be a very criminal shooting of the deceased.

Or they just fricking suck at it

One of them is just throwing awkward haymakers

The other one tried to grab his arm and missed completely and then just gave up

He’s in a frickin ball on the ground

This is what I think happened. Still plenty to figure out, but this is my leader in the clubhouse.

You are correct. I just re watched it and I see now where he raised his arms up, walked away, and then went down to his knees completely complying

Oh wait, that’s what a normal person that wants to still be alive would have done

Here’s a guy that’s never dealt with a situation remotely close to arresting or detaining someone.

The guy is absolutely no where close to being contained safely

People who don’t follow the rules or care about the social contract seem to think we are going to continue to care about ideological neutrality in government

Facts don't matter. The communist have explained away the gun as being a plant and accused the man of defending himself from six ICE agents who were beating him.

Moderates and the right need to face facts. What we are seeing is a communist revolution. They are not going to go peacefully. We must break the back of this leftwing extremist movement now or we'll fall one by one in the coming few years.

He does raise his arm up and then gets monkey slung to the ground where he lands on his knees and curls up in a ball

You are legitimately making the point for me
