I was in a civilian training course and the instructor (ex military and law enforcement) recommended against using 00 buckshot for home defense. He based this on his having to secure a crime scene apartment where someone was killed by this method. He said the sickening carnage and damage to the premises would make the home psychologically uninhabitable for a home defender.

“Trump fumes as protesters stake out festive zone in Seattle”

It wouldn’t take much effort to clear the rabble out. These people aren’t Iraqi insurgents. They’re a bunch of okupiers.

That’s what happens when you elect a socialist radical to a position in government, they betray the trust of the people. She opened the city hall after hours to the “protestors” aka the mob, for a photo op. Good thing, I guess, that the building is still standing.

This is, after all, a domestic dispute, and we know that the cops who step in to stop an abusive person from beating the victim are very often, if not always, turned on by said victim as well as by the abuser.

Some relevant posts around the web, to go with the one from Ace in Neo’s later post.

Unfortunately, the city council is almost all Marxists and sympathetic to Antifa. Mayor Durkin hasn’t the spine to do much. And don’t get me started on King Jay. He’s hiding out in Olympia mumbling about justice, science, and social distancing or some such. He’s easily the least impressive governor in all 50 of our states and that’s saying something.

The head of the Seattle Police Dept. union was on Laura Ingraham tonight expressing the outrage his members feel. Obama’s DOJ neutered the SPD during his term and they are a much diminished and hampered in trying to protect the city. It shows. Another of Obama’s contributions to the “fundamental transformation” of the country.

Why don’t black lives that are taken every day by other blacks matter? Eighteen black on black murders in Chicago last weekend. Nary a peep from BLM. This meme that the police are murdering blacks is BS and the data shows it. As we all know. The country is gripped in a mass hysteria. All mass delusions and madness of crowds eventually ends. How will this end?

Neo, sorry I didn’t know about the situations in all the schools. I was primarily speaking of California schools, of which I had personal experience. And unlike you, I did not research the subject thoroughly. 🙂

If BLM is stupid enough to join antifa in seizing urban areas, then they give Trump the rationale needed to declare BLM a terrorist organization as well.

If majors won’t act and Governors won’t act, then at some point Trump will have to act. Antifa has been declared a terrorist organization and in Seattle are engaged in open insurrection. That cannot be allowed to stand. They’re playing hardball now and shall reap what they’ve sown because in the real world… actions have consequences.

Does she have any other thoughts? Fixated on race? Racist maybe? Oh noessssssssss! Sorry. 😉

Hope you like New Mexico. I enjoyed the time I was on temporary work assignments in Abq 30 yrs ago.
