You can't swing a pistol around with your finger on the trigger at people 25-30 yards from you and not expect repercussions, no matter if they tore down your gate or not


Was finger on trigger?
Was safety on?
What kind of firearm was it?
Was it even loaded?
Was it a gun, plastic relica, or bb pistol?

And yes, it does matter dip shite. It's private property that was forcefully taken over even after numerous verbal warnings.

One step closer by any of them onto the property and skulls would have been peeled back - and rightfully so.

Go frick yourself on the hyperbole of repercussions.

there it is, and the first time I have seen it posted (if there were others, I "missed" them like 808 did my first post). That's all I needed, thanks

Portland doesn’t even intersect Lindell.



Wasn't saying that. Was saying there is like one entrance to the neighborhood that has a coded gate. That's how it was described.

The others, like at Linedell, appear to have manual, locked, gates for emergency access.

No. Everyone that touched it and went through it.

Correct and correct.

Also irrelevant to the Castle Doctrine.

Thib-Tiger seems to want to actually KNOW the underlying ownership facts, so that he can conduct an informed analysis of the legal exposure in this situation.

A desire to gather relevant facts does NOT make one a moron.

Refusal to do so, on the other hand .....

A group of rabid lunatics belonging to an organization that preaches destruction and violence based on skin color tears down a private property gate and begins to storm the property and you think no one should have been worried about them or stopped them because of the social repercussions?

People like you are why the Gulags and Concentration Camps can operate.

Hypothetically, because I have no guns because my boat sank, if they are outside in my yard damaging my property, but not at my house or directly threatening to harm me, I will let them know that I have a weapon and let them know if they come too close to my house ill shoot them. Then I'll call the cops and let them handle it while keeping an eye on them and my weapon at the ready to defend myself and family


Thank you for the answer. So you ultimately agree with what the couple did but had issues with their gun safety?

In Missouri, you can pull a gun out wherever you have a right to be if you are threatened.

quote:

According to Findlaw.com, Missouri's law is more extensive than those of other states because it allows you to use deadly force to attack an intruder to protect any private property that you own, in addition to yourself or another individual. This means that if someone illegally enters your front porch or backyard, you can use deadly force against them without retreating first. More specifically, a person does not have a duty to retreat:

(1) From a dwelling, residence, or vehicle where the person is not unlawfully entering or unlawfully remaining;

(2) From private property that is owned or leased by such individual; or

(3) If the person is in any other location such person has the right to be.

Ask him if he would let them know about it with his finger on the trigger while pointing it at them. Go ahead, ask him

If someone loaded their gun, as Mark McCloskey states, and then made a threatening comment, as McCloskey states, he could’ve shot the person and been legally justified.

You will always get an answer from me. I enjoy open discussion. Even if it’s with AggieHank and Tboy

Absolutely. I said that in my first post.

They legally did nothing wrong, but they’re ignorant dangerous gun owners. In 2020 there’s no excuse for that. You can learn basic rudimentary gun safety from Google and YouTube . And if you own a gun you should absolutely understand how dangerous of a tool it can be and how to properly use and care for it.

These two numbnuts were pointing guns at each other and others with their finger on the trigger.

Jesus Christ with a popsicle. Where the HELL did I say that?

I simply said that they should have been AWARE of the repercussion and that they therefore clearly were WILLING to ACCEPT those repercussions.

Illiteracy makes me sad.

AggieHank, it's been clearly established that this is "private property." As the folks on this board have clearly demonstrated, once someone is unlawfully on private property, regardless of whether you own the property or not, you're entitled to shoot them.

Kind of like if you were walking down the street and saw someone breaking into a random furniture store. That's someone else's private property. But you're free to shoot them according to the posts here.

Peaceful protesters who destroyed a gate to enter onto posted private property.

Say huh? Violent Assault? Did I miss something?

“We must protect the right to peacefully protest, and any attempt to chill it through intimidation


Sorry but this is absolutely hilarious in so many ways you can’t deny. Chilling a “peaceful” protest... that broke through a locked gate to go “intimidate” another individual. And also “intimidated” private property owners while the “peaceful” protesters were trespassing.

Insert Castle Law here.
