And what are you supposed to do about your house, your wife, your kids if you're in jail and one guy from the mob comes back at 3am? Even if you aren't in jail, what do you do when a guy comes back at 3am 6 months from now? You have to sleep, one guy only has to skip one night to burn you out.

View Quote They could've zerg rushed Kyle Rittenhouse but as soon as he turned some brains into Jell-O and some biceps into pink mist, the big crowd dispersed rather quickly. Add the cover of your own home and they'd be pissing themselves to scurry away like roaches once a few got roasted trying to start the fire. |

Well I guess I would find out if they get me. I'm fairly certain I could get a quite a few of them before they breached the house at which point I would retreat to the various choke points and put up further defense .If I die defending my life I'm fine with that as long as I got a few in the process.
If I thought there was no way I would retain my freedom I would make sure any injured are no longer injured, reload and get ready for the police to show up or possibly bug out and go active on any high value targets I can find. The way I see it is if there is no way out might as well make the best of it. Besides, taking a mag dump to the body beats suffocating to death from cancer or whatever other horrific way I'll end up going out. Not sure what other choice you would have? Put your life at the mercy of a racist mob so you can eat from a blender and be confine to a wheelchair for the rest of your life? Yea no thanks, not even an option. None if this would happen if they just left me alone, but if you are going to force me to do things I'm going to do them to the best of my ability. Don't expect mercy, none will be coming. |

I did not see many people running for their lives in the Kenoshaw videos. They are growing more and more accustom to gunfire it appears - perhaps that is why the powers that direct them are having them explode fireworks - so when guns start going off they will not realize the shit just hit the fan.
--- I personally have worried a bit about arson. I have had a shit load of stuff stolen from my ranch over the years. It has all been "entitlement" thefts so far. He is not using it, so who will care if we steel it - we deserve the money more than he does. Most were old tractor implements stolen for scrap iron), or stuff from a mostly deserted ranch house. If I did get some game cams and got good pictures, odds are nobody would go to jail for long - but the chance of a random fire would go up 100 fold. As for "random" fires, we had over 100 tons of feed burn one Thanksgiving. At least I am completely sure that one was not intentional, but having gone through 2 fires - I tend to believe arson would be a simple crime for an asshole to get away with. |

How many roof-top Koreans went to jail? Are you the only "neighbor" you can count on? That's something to get resolved. If you can. If they try to light up your neighbor, will you be there for them? Will they be there for you?
I think one can rest assured that if a neighborhood, or even individual, lays out a couple of "mostly peaceful protesters" and gets swamped by the survivors or LE, you will see big changes. Because "Coming to a neighborhood near you!" just got real. There aren't enough cops to tamp it down and not enough protesters to go around. And the pols and liberals need to know. Their thugs are the only ones that might promise to "Come back some night." |

There is some truth here. a single house is very difficult to defend realistically without a team. all it takes is one cocktail getting on the roof. One man vs a mob is retarded, just bad tactics. But if that's how you chose to take your stand, that's what you get. Better approach is having local quick response teams of friends that can flank the mobs and get at them from other angles if things go sideways.

Right now, people are being arrested for simply confronting the mob and appearing to be able to defend themselves. The only real solution is to stop the mobs from forming in the first place.
--- as for fire - I wonder how much it would cost to make make a remote water cannon... You know a very aggressive targetable irrigation system - kind of like a fire boat uses. That is mostly a joke. I had one client with a pivot system. Pretty sure he used a big block diesel engine to run the pumps and his supply pond was probably over an acre. I could get a pump for my 20hp pto - but I doubt it would be very impressive. |
