It's famously peaceful if you carry a gun to a protest and it famously drives no officer around you even more to their edge.

  My man loves that boot.

    If only take sides and don't make any actual arguments, then unfortunately you won't convince anyone either.
    • DangitBobby 9mo ago
      Cops can kill at will isn't something that needs to be argued against.
      • kreetx 9mo ago
        Cops can kill if they have reason to believe that the other will kill. Look it up.
        • DangitBobby 9mo ago
          "at will". They aren't going to give you a medal for how far you can bend over.
          • kreetx 9mo ago
            You should elaborate, because if this is the sentence you want, it's no different: Cops can kill at will if they have reason to believe that the other will kill.
            • DangitBobby 9mo ago
              They can kill when they have a reasonable basis for assuming they are facing an imminent threat to their lives or addressing a threat to public safety (but NOT to prevent criminal activity that isn't life threatening). That isn't the same thing as a license to kill, and they are accountable for charges like murder when they don't meet a "reasonable officer on the scene" standard. I don't consider that to be "at will" (likened to "at will employment") so much as "at their discretion."

  If these cowardly goons are afraid of American citizens exercising their second amendment rights they should find another job.

    As should you refrain from making assesments on human psychology if you are not able to do so.

  Interesting. When people who stormed the Capitol openly carried assault rifles, MAGA had no problem with it. They called them patriots and peaceful protesters.

    It's not about people carrying a gun at all, it's that should you carry a gun to a protest and should you engage in resisting to law enforcement while doing that. Had this person been perfectly still, he'd be still alive. (And also, had he not had that gun, but still resisted, he'd likely would have also been alive.)
    • spacechild1 9mo ago
      > Had this person been perfectly still, he'd be still alive. Again, I'd like to see you stay perfectly still after getting peppersprayed in the face without any reason. At no point was he threatening and attacking ICE agents. He was trying to help another woman who had just been assaulted by agents. They created the very situation that led to this tragedy.
      • kreetx 9mo ago
        There was a reason if you watched the video, it was the "help" of putting his hands on one of the officers. And bringing a gun into a situation like this. There was a lot of whistlers, but I think the woman being helped was one of them, so this was what started the chain of events.
        • spacechild1 9mo ago
          What started the whole thing is that an ICE agent violently pushed the women from behind.
          • kreetx 9mo ago
            Yes, because the woman was following the agent around, whistling.

  didnt realize the punishment for that was death
