What is the general message? Not trolling. Just want to see what you get from Joe that Trump doesn't provide with messaging


"If we can decide not to cooperate, we can decide to cooperate as well. That’s the choice I’ll make as president. But there’s something bigger going on in this nation than just our broken politics. Something darker, something more dangerous. I’m not talking about ordinary differences of opinion, competing viewpoints give life and vibrancy to our democracy. No, I’m talking about something different, something deeper. Too many Americans seek not to overcome our divisions, but to deepen them, we must seek not to build walls, but bridges. We must seek not to have our fist clenched, but our arms open. We have to seek not to tear each other apart, we seek to come together. You don’t have to agree with me on everything, or even on most things, to see that we’re experiencing today is neither good nor normal."

You are (poorly) moving the goal posts. He was struck. He can use reasonable force to respond. That is not lethal force.

Don’t be a contrarian dumbass. We already have one in this thread.


I'm not trying to be contrarian. I am honestly confused because my perception of self-defense law was that I could use my firearm to protect myself from physical attacks.

Let's say a 230 lb man punches 170 lb me in the face. I stumble back and draw my weapon to prevent further attacks. Is that legal or am I guilty of assault? If he slapped me I could see how it can muddy the waters.

It seems.. insane.. to think that my wife couldn't legally use a handgun to stop a man who already hit her from hitting her again.

I know it doesn't strictly mirror the Keltner-Dolloff situation but I'm still asking.. because it just seems wrong and I am clearly not an expert or lawyer.

That is not lethal force in this situation. And if you think it is you are going to prison.


Hopefully I never find out. You live in a strange world where it seems like I'm supposed to voluntarily take an arse beating from a guy twice my size who could seriously injure me.

I suggest you consult with some people smarter than you before you do any of that. So pick anyone who’s not licking a window.


Texas Penal Code 9.31. “a person is justified in using force against another when and to the degree the actor reasonably believes the force is immediately necessary to protect the actor against the other's use or attempted use of unlawful force.”

I hope I never am in a situation where I have to decide. I avoid situations where conflict is likely.. you're not going to see me at any protests or counter-protests.

Most of us don't live in a world where you have an obligation to retreat.

We figured that out several pages back.



I'm pretty sure my first post here was very open about it. I would love to vote for a moderate republican but I'm afraid they are not competitive in the current Republican party.

If I believe drawing my firearm is necessary to stop someone from hitting me again then I am well within my right to do so. At least in most southern states.

Your bitch got bitch slapped for being a bitch and then he got upset and shot a man that was backing away from him.

You people suck


My people are freedom loving Americans who believe in the right to self defense. Rittenhouse did nothing wrong. And yes I'm voting for Biden.

Maybe Dolloff will get convicted.. but I will always presume the guy who got hit in the face is acting in self-defense.

Why is Biden a good choice?


I wouldn't call him a good choice. I do like his general message.. but let's be very clear.. he is just the other guy at this point.

I'd gladly vote for President Pence. Instead we get DJT or Biden.

Everyone voting against Trump showed up to vote for Hillary last time. How did that work out Mickey?


I have several friends who did not vote for Hillary but will vote against Trump in the coming election. I didn't vote for Hillary either.

We didn't think Trump could win. Turns out elections have consequences.

My guy didn't make it very far in the primary. Ranked choice he would have smoked Trump but we are stuck with a moronic system.
quote:

But that still does not set the conditions for Dolloff to put his hands on him and then draw his weapon after he is slapped in self defense.



Can you link a clip of Dolloff doing something that would justify Keltner taking a swing at him? We know for a fact that Keltner is the one who closed the distance between them.
"...I mean that he has to hold reason as his only guide to action, and that he must live by the independent judgment of his own mind; that his highest moral purpose is the achievement of his own happiness... that each man must live as an end in himself, and follow his own rational self-interest."
quote:

Can you shoot a cop after they pepper spray you?


Not when they are acting legally.

For what it's worth.. and I'm no lawyer but this is how I see the scenario.

-Verbal confrontation begins
-Keltner, who is twice the size of producer/Doloff, aggressively moves to get in producers/Doloffs face, escalating the conflict from verbal to intimidation/threat of physical contact.
-Doloff steps in between (or doesn't move) and attempts to move Keltner back.
-Keltner hits Doloff in face, again escalating the conflict from intimidation to physical violence.
-Doloff reacts to the attack by grabbing and raising his weapon.
-Keltner reacts by moving backwards and raising/spraying his mace (or whatever it is)
-Doloff reacts to the movement of raising the canister or perhaps the spray itself and shoots.

All in about 2 seconds. If Doloff reached for the mace before he was slapped then I may change my mind.. it just happens so fast it's hard for me to blame someone who was just hit in the head.
quote:


Here are the billion dollar questions that neither side of this argument wants an answer;

Can a cop shoot you for pepper spraying them? Can a cop shoot you for striking them in confrontational stance?


They can and do so legally. We can argue until we are blue in the face about whether it should be that way.. but it is.
quote:

He reached for the mace not because there was a threat to his client but because he was pre-disposed to hate the person who was holding it.


Ridiculous conjecture. Should Jake Gardner have been convicted of a crime for shooting and killing someone attempting to restrain him?

I don't think so at all. People like you are the reason he committed suicide.
quote:

So pissed I hit submit before posting.

There are two kind of genetic characteristics in humans, in response to an attack. One is 'flight' (fear)...and the other is fight.

I really don't think those stupid, delusional yahoos in the MSM really realize the gravity of what they are doing. But if they keep doing it...the will. And will rue the day that they chose lies and double standards to cover for an enemy within.


Using your fight or flight example.. why are you pissed? The victim was wearing large rings on all of his fingers (similar to brass knuckles) and hit the shooter in the face. He was standing with a group of people carrying knives, batons, and guns.

The Doloff guy may be guilty of murder. We'll get to see that play out in court and will have a much better idea of what actually happened. HOWEVER, we all know that Keltner guy would still be alive if he didn't hit Doloff in the face

If some thug wearing rings on all of his fingers is being aggressive and takes a swing and hits me in the head.. I'm drawing my weapon and ending it. He can back down and live or escalate the situation (try to incapacitate me) and risk dying. His choice.

In a situation where I draw my weapon.. trying to incapacitate me IS trying to kill me.

If it was your wife some thug was swinging at would you want her to take any chances?

Was all this "performance art?" Does that look like a fired pistol? Zoom in on the ejected casing. That looks an awful lot like an entire bullet to me.


Is the dead guy performance art too? Idiots.
Here's some footage.. fair warning some may find it graphic

This board wants the DOJ to influence the elections

Shameful and embarrassing

And to see great people like dallastiger11 go along with it is shameful


They want to win.. surely you can understand that?

To summarize
-The longest the President can be removed is for 21 days
-Removal under 25th is harder than impeachment - 2/3 of both houses.

Nancy needs to just go out to pasture


People seem to be missing an important fact.. yes, they could create the group Pelosi is proposing; however, the 25th amendment requires the Vice President and the majority of the cabinet or the majority of the group created by law to declare in writing that the President cannot fulfill his duties.

No matter what happens the 25th can't be invoked without the written notification by the Vice President.
Trump has the absolute authority to release the documents himself.. maybe he should.
