For any normal citizen, pointing a gun at someone unprovoked is considered assault at best.

- quantified 6y agoI think the law is a bit different when that someone shows up at your door or is inside your house. Isn't that the essence of the Breonna Jones case? I was reading of a different case recently too. If they've announced that they're law enforcement, it's a bad idea though. You may be in the right if you're just armed and not pointing it, but being in the right never protects you.
- fountainofage 6y agoThe law actually isn't different. Cops just have qualified immunity and have shown they throw hissy fit little tantrums if a DA holds them responsible for being the worthless sacks of shit that they are.
- dboreham 6y agoThat they sometimes are.
- fountainofage 6y agoYeah, I bet if someone came over and beat the shit out of you for only an hour a day, you'd be correcting people that the person is only sometimes an asshole.
- mindslight 6y agoI agree that good cops do exist. Show me a cop that, for example, wants justice for Breonna Taylor, and I'll agree they're one of the good ones. But without being able to clear what is actually a very low bar for belief in American ideals and the rule of law, most of them are part of a criminal conspiracy.
