It’s a warning shot that isn’t a warning shot for purposes of any LEO encounters.

We may find out, I would bet there will be retaliation against those residents.

What happens when “buck fever” sets in on a home owner protecting his property and decides he’s not going to jail or leaving his family and his post? We may have that answer soon.


First pull of the the trigger is the expensive one, rest are basically free.


Don't use a weapon that will mark you as bad.  Use the tools of the enemy so the damage can't be discerned.  IE if they are throwing molotovs well gas has never been cheaper.  Improvise and don't forget a fire extinguisher.


If I am in fear for my life and those of my loved ones I will use the most effective tool at my disposal.


Even though its perfectly legal to say more, I won't. The most effective weapon isn't a rifle on the first pass.  a little improvisation goes a very long way.  people dealing with a problem like being on fire or overpressure may be easier to shoot anyway.  common items with lifting charges coupled with common accelerant both in use by rioters make very effective deterrent / distracting tools.  know your enemy, know his weapons, use them against him in ways that make events unclear but outcomes work in your favor.   I'll stress point 2, if you may be in proximity to any of this a fire extinguisher (or several) would be good to bring.

Poor attempt at sarcasm on my part.  Good call too as I was, for a brief time, indirect fire infantry 11C.  Level, check. Level, check.  Level, check....

As notoriously bad cops are at shooting I would never admit to a warning shot.  Just tell them you had a ND while clearing your holster.  Or your a bad shot.  but never fire a warning shot

If a shop owner is inside of his store, legally armed, then I would consider anyone breaching a closed store destructively to be a threat to life, just like a home invader, and I would absolutely defend my life in that situation and rightfully expect protection FROM the law, especially since he is without protection OF the law.

Now the video I saw of the store owner driving up, pulling a shotgun from his back seat, and firing upon the fleeing looters that were damaging his store? That'd be murder. Much as anyone thinks they have it coming, shooting a fleeing thief in the back who poses no threat to life, is and should be, murder.

The more I think about this question and the silly comparison with passing a counterfeit bill, the more I think the answer is "Yes, I do think rioters and looters and rioters should be shot dead on the spot, and city trucks sent around every morning to pick up the carcasses and haul them to the dump."

Layered defense is best. Mutual support with neighbors watching out.  Controlled access in.  Make your neighborhood hard.  Single point access. At night get some lights up to blind their vision.  Get your roofs ready for cocktails.  Hoses ready and sprinklers on if you have them.  Dogs are good. Cars stacked on roadways at alternating parking angles creates a cordon.  Hurricane shutters can help the glass from getting crushed.  Fire bottles ready to put out the fire.  DONT EXPECT LEO support.  When they come, be ready.  Defend what’s yours.

Been thinking about this for a few days now. If this is truly a well-coordinated event then stuff like this has to be a part of the next phase. I remember those transformers being taken out like they were yesterday. Utilities have made progress in physically securing their infrastructure, but it won't be much help in areas in which LE is otherwise occupied and the rioters have free reign to do whatever they need/want to do.

Honest questions:

How can a white officer assigned to a shithole black neighborhood not become somewhat racist?

How can a black officer assigned to a white methhead neighborhood not become somewhat racist?

It is not so much ingrained hate as it is "this group of folks are subhuman trash, and I do not like them, and they all have this same skin color so I associate that with them."

Don't use a weapon that will mark you as bad.  Use the tools of the enemy so the damage can't be discerned.  IE if they are throwing molotovs well gas has never been cheaper.  Improvise and don't forget a fire extinguisher.


If I am in fear for my life and those of my loved ones I will use the most effective tool at my disposal.


Even though its perfectly legal to say more, I won't. The most effective weapon isn't a rifle on the first pass.  a little improvisation goes a very long way.  people dealing with a problem like being on fire or overpressure may be easier to shoot anyway.  common items with lifting charges coupled with common accelerant both in use by rioters make very effective deterrent / distracting tools.  know your enemy, know his weapons, use them against him in ways that make events unclear but outcomes work in your favor.   I'll stress point 2, if you may be in proximity to any of this a fire extinguisher (or several) would be good to bring.


So you are saying my 2 gallon pump sprayer full of 99% alcohol, collection of road flares and fireworks is a good idea? (I don't really have any of this stuff)

Wonder what the crowd reaction would be when a bunch of folks start doing the funky chicken because of invisible flames

Sigh, guess this is where I reference my sig line again.

That is the type of shit I want to see.

I have at least 6 or 7 Trump stickers that could be used in that manner.

The Govt gives an insane level of protection to currency, considering how badly THEY abuse it.

If a shop owner is inside of his store, legally armed, then I would consider anyone breaching a closed store destructively to be a threat to life, just like a home invader, and I would absolutely defend my life in that situation and rightfully expect protection FROM the law, especially since he is without protection OF the law.

Now the video I saw of the store owner driving up, pulling a shotgun from his back seat, and firing upon the fleeing looters that were damaging his store? That'd be murder. Much as anyone thinks they have it coming, shooting a fleeing thief in the back who poses no threat to life, is and should be, murder.

Like when the bad guys have a shoot out with the popo and call "mercy" when they run out of bullets.  Just because someone starts shit should not give them the right to dictate its ending time.

Yeah - I don't know the actual 'charges' and might have over sold that ---  What I read was that after breaking into a home he forced the woman to another room at gun point -- that's my understanding of the definition of kidnapping (?) -- I assume he wasn't there to show her his new pistol so the threat of death is implied --

Regardless of the actual charges and result -- he certainly should not be painted as Saint George.  That's patently false.


eta: and pretty sure his arrest record was posted earlier in either this thread or maybe the original one from before the riots -- couldn't even guess what page it was

I don't have to prove shit. Read the list yourself. That's what I did. I'm not the one making the claim those people are traitors. If you agree with it, you get to provide evidence because you two are the ones claiming it is true. The evidence provided is largely links to generic tweets saying "George Floyd's death was bad. We support people questioning the events that occurred" and shit like that. Definite Benedict Arnold conduct.

It is not so much ingrained hate as it is "this group of folks are subhuman trash, and I do not like them, and they all have this same skin color so I associate that with them."

I dont think you can as white person.

As for blacks ive never met one as far I know that isnt already racist in some way already so I don't know about that.

FBI will lead the charge, "public opinion" polls and news media will follow up with a saturation campaign.


And when Antifa steps up to using guns (where have their friends, the John Brown Gun Club, been?), the news media and the usual crowd in government will be pushing for their gun control wish list.

The question is whether or not the public will go along with it.

I think this is the correct take.

History is full of nations that subjected themselves to heavy handed government out of fear. Security is almost always chosen over Liberty. The story of America's Independence and first 200 or so years is the exception, not the norm.

When the dust settles from this shit show, we're going to get more government. Things may stabilize this week, or there may be a period of anarchy and chaos, but when it's over, the American people will subject themselves to whatever flavor of government is in place.

Is there a contradiction here, or is it just me? It seems like at least with the cop situation, there was an attempt to follow due process before the bad guy fought that process and then the cop overstepped and negligently killed him. In the riot situation there is no attempt at due process - we just skip right to the killin'. At the end of both scenarios, someone died because they tried to steal stuff.

Before anyone starts with the "passing counterfeit money isn't the same as looting" argument, would you be okay with the cop's actions if Floyd had done a smash-n-grab instead? The cop's actions should be wrong no matter what the offense was, correct?

I still hold the cop was over the line, and it *seems* like shop owners should be able to defend their stores, but I'm having a hard time making a logical argument why the cop's actions should be murder, but the shop owner's wouldn't be.

Whether it is a shop owner or a home owner, when invaded by rioters and looters in today’s reality, the owner is facing being beaten to death simply for saying “no, this is mine”.  So defending against looters with lethal force is not just defense of property, but of your very life.  That is why it isn’t murder.
