Re: Politics

SpaceNut,

If you point a firearm at a law enforcement officer, they will shoot you!  This outcome is the real physical world reminder that the law still applies to you, regardless of how you perceive yourself.  Nobody is forcing these dimwits to engage in this idiocy.  They're being encouraged to act like street thugs by Democrat politicians and media cretins who don't get shot by the Police because they never show up to these clown shows.

How many lunatic leftists are prepared to die to attempt (and fail) to prevent law enforcement from arresting the usual assortment of illegal alien child rapists and murders that the Biden (Democrat) administration rolled out the red carpet for?

I guess we're about to find out.

I'm quite pleased that our radical leftists have now decided that they support The Second Amendment to our Constitution, but if they want to use their 2A rights to murder law enforcement officers, then they're going to find out that Republicans have been 2A supporters far longer than they have been.  Either think before you act, or suffer the consequences when you don't.

FYI...
Renee Good was apparently sent $15,000 USD, via Venmo, by the Mayor of Minneapolis, Jacob Frey (Democrat), on the 3rd of January, mere days before her lunatic behavior towards law enforcement cost her her life, with the payment description set to "Melt ICE".  Presumably, that payment was made to act like a prototypical leftist lunatic.  You can't spend bribe money you received from the Democrat Party to act like a street thug after you've been shot.  I'm sure it's "just a joke" since this is a leftist we're talking about here, but one of her Venmo payments she made out to someone else had that payment description set to "terrorism".

A normal person can be forgiven for thinking that people like Renee Good are terrorists when they pay other people for "terrorism".

Radical leftists are free to continue LARPing as a revolutionaries, but they should know that most revolutionaries get shot in the streets.

Re: Politics

Saw the video of the Minnesota shooting and the agent pushed a woman, being near the one shot stepped up to rebuke the agent was then mugged and tackled to the ground, pepper sprayed and shot while he struggle for his life all for protecting the honor of the pushed woman.

We are all civilians first regardless of what jobs we do. Assault is still assault even when in a uniform as you are all civilians once the clothes' are off.

Maybe she hit first but did not see that.

Video shows them shooting

Re: Politics

SpaceNut,

When you actively seek out law enforcement officers to fight with, you should expect them to fight back, because that is what we train them to do.  They are not obligated to twiddle their thumbs and wait for you to shoot them.  All of this insanity could have been avoided by allowing those officers to do their jobs, then fighting a legal battle in court.  If you attempt to fight a gun battle in the streets using weapons against people who are better trained and equipped than you are, the only likely outcome is that you lose your life.

Re: Politics

Trump issues four immigration demands to Walz, Democratic leaders


Trump on Truth Social
The president posted on Sunday:

“That is why I am hereby calling on Governor Walz, Mayor Frey, and EVERY Democrat Governor and Mayor in the United States of America to formally cooperate with the Trump Administration to enforce our Nation’s Laws, rather than resist and stoke the flames of Division, Chaos, and Violence:

1. Governor Walz and Mayor Frey should turn over all Criminal Illegal Aliens that are currently incarcerated in their State Prisons and Jails to Federal Authorities, along with all Illegal Criminals with an active warrant or known Criminal History, for Immediate Deportation.

2. State and Local Law Enforcement must agree to turn over all Illegal Aliens arrested by Local Police.

3. Local Police must assist Federal Law Enforcement in apprehending and detaining Illegal Aliens who are wanted for Crimes.

4. Democrat Politicians must partner with the Federal Government to protect American Citizens in the rapid removal of all Criminal Illegal Aliens in our Country. Some Democrats, in places like Memphis, Tennessee, or Washington, D.C., have done so, resulting in safer streets for ALL.


In addition, I am hereby calling on the United States Congress to immediately pass Legislation to END Sanctuary Cities, which is the root cause of all of these problems. American Cities should be Safe Sanctuaries for Law Abiding American Citizens ONLY, not Illegal Alien Criminals who broke our Nation’s Laws.

All of these requests are rooted in COMMON SENSE, and will provide the best possible circumstances to, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! The Trump Administration is standing by, and waiting for ANY Democrat to do the right thing, and work with us on these important matters of MAKING AMERICA SAFE like it is in all sections of our Country where we are, together with Local Leadership, participating and involved.

DONALD J. TRUMP PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA”

Re: Politics

So any competant nation could build a workable car of good quality.  Just maybe without all of the superfluous electronics.

Britain, the country of the Henry Hoover and creator of The Best Plug In The World, should be all over this. Amongst other ruggedised simple equipment.


Use what is abundant and build to last

When armed citizens go looking for a fight, yes, violence becomes more likely, and that’s reckless. But “they’re trained to fight back” is not a moral blank check, and it’s not even the standard we claim to hold law enforcement to.

Officers aren’t trained to win gunfights as a first principle—they’re trained (and empowered) to enforce the law while minimizing unnecessary harm. That means de-escalation when possible, tactical patience when feasible, and force that is necessary and proportionate, not force that is convenient, retaliatory, or emotionally satisfying. “You should expect them to fight back” is a description of risk, not a justification for everything that follows.

And “just fight it in court” is a nice slogan until you remember that court is slow, expensive, unevenly accessible, and doesn’t resurrect people. The legal system is exactly why we demand higher restraint from the state: because the government gets more authority, more weapons, more protection, and more second chances than the average person.

So yes: if you choose the street as your courtroom, you’re gambling with your life and everyone else’s. But the state doesn’t get to respond like a rival gang and then shrug: “What did you expect?” The whole point of professional policing is that the people with the badges are supposed to be the adults in the room—especially when someone else is acting like an idiot.

WTF is wrong with expecting that we can complain about our government and how our government operates without the fear of being shot down dead in the street like a dog? Looks  like the leftist communists didn't need to vote; Trump boot lickers are more than happy to grab their ankles while cosplaying a day on Epstein's island.

Re: Politics

clark,

But “they’re trained to fight back” is not a moral blank check, and it’s not even the standard we claim to hold law enforcement to.

If people like Alex Pretti cared at all about morality, they would not assault law enforcement officers in the process of executing an arrest warrant on a child rapist.

Officers aren’t trained to win gunfights as a first principle

If you don't win your gunfights first, then you don't get to apply any other principles.

And “just fight it in court” is a nice slogan until you remember that court is slow, expensive, unevenly accessible, and doesn’t resurrect people.

If Alex Pretti was kept in jail by the State of Minnesota after he assaulted two federal law enforcement officers and vandalized their vehicle 11 days before he was shot during his final assault against federal law enforcement officers, then he'd most likely still be alive today.  That means he wouldn't need to be resurrected because he'd still be sitting in a jail cell where he belongs.

Alex Pretti was released because the State of Minnesota and the City of Minneapolis are run by criminals who clearly don't care at all about the people they're supposed to protect and serve, unless Minnesota Democrats now exclusively protect and serve thieves, rapists, and murderers.  They keep paying and encouraging their hooligans to fight with federal law enforcement officers, then bailing them out after they get arrested for assaulting federal law enforcement officers, so there's no other logical conclusion to reach.

The signal chat excerpts between Walz, Frey, and their street thugs indicate the violence they're perpetrating is intended to distract attention away from the fact that Walz and Frey were active participants in an organized crime ring which fraudulently disbursed about ten billion dollars worth of Medicaid funding to people who only provided care to their wallets.  After having been caught stealing from the federal government, they then thought to themselves, let's add incitement to violence, funding violent organized criminal activities against federal law enforcement, and insurrection to our list of federal charges.

The legal system is exactly why we demand higher restraint from the state: because the government gets more authority, more weapons, more protection, and more second chances than the average person.

The duty to exercise restraint on the part of the state doesn't mean its citizenry are allowed to actively seek out federal law enforcement officers to assault to avert attention away from the criminal activities of their local and state government officials.  Thieves like Walz and Frey will always feel entitled to what other people have, but that doesn't mean that they are.

But the state doesn’t get to respond like a rival gang

Gang members randomly attack other people who they believe are part of rival gangs.  Whether they are or not is irrelevant to them.  This is precisely what the left does, and why they eventually lose public support.  If any law enforcement agency starts doing that, then we're in agreement that they're acting like a gang.  That's not what happened here, but you are welcome to go through as many anti-logic loops in your head as are required to believe otherwise.

The whole point of professional policing is that the people with the badges are supposed to be the adults in the room—especially when someone else is acting like an idiot.

I'm disappointed that you, a leftist, refuse to support Alex Pretti's right to choose between a court battle and a gun battle.  Our professional federal officers worked with Alex Pretti, a professional local street thug and idiot, to save him and the tax paying general public from a slow, expensive, and unevenly accessible criminal trial, which would most likely have resulted in a slow and expensive prison sentence.

WTF is wrong with expecting that we can complain about our government and how our government operates without the fear of being shot down dead in the street like a dog?

You don't "complain about your government" by chasing after federal law enforcement officers and assaulting them in the streets while they're in the process of arresting child rapists.  The question you're really asking is, "Why isn't our federal government playing our stupid games by our stupid rules?"  The answer is simple and direct.  When the left refuses to interact civilly with people who were previously behaving in a civil manner towards them, they only have themselves to blame.

Looks  like the leftist communists didn't need to vote; Trump boot lickers are more than happy to grab their ankles while cosplaying a day on Epstein's island.

Our leftist communists are still pretending that laws don't exist if they disagree with them.  Everyone else seems to accept that this is not how the law works.

Re: Politics

clark,

Here's a video showing the behavior of your perfect little angel towards ICE a few days before he was shot:
Associated Press - New video shows Alex Pretti in scuffle with federal officers days before his death

These two goobers were caught using Signal Chat to provide real time locations of ICE agents to street thugs like Alex Pretti:
