Just saying in the Shoutbox someone said a retired Police officer tried to stop him but the armor protected the shooter and the officer was killed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boatdrinks Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 Yes, body armor. Seemed to surrender easily once law enforcement arrived in numbers. Appears to be an outsider. Sadly, a retired BPD Officer working security at the store bravely engaged the suspect and was killed in the process. RIP No Tibs, not going to wear body armor but do as you wish. I’ll take my chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention he surrendered once other weapons showed up. Edited May 14 by Beast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also kind of hard to reconcile being “ pro -abortion” and being outraged at a criminal pulling a trigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me, I would prefer to be standing next to the off-duty officer who plugged this luantic in the head as he began his reign of terror. Absent the off duty police officer, I'd prefer to be next to the sensible gun owner who plugged this lunatic in the head as he began his reign of terror. of coarse he would. victims only know how to be victims.

delirious Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 More guns = better. Obviously not from a crime perspective, but from a freedom and anti-authority perspective, and self-preservation perspective. Why does the state get to hold a monopoly on force? I don't need to roll out all of the states throughout history that have abused that monopoly and made aggression towards people legal, just or not. I'd rather deal with the consequences of having guns exist than give it up and have no defence whatsoever against an abusive state. Secondly, crime is always going to exist, and abolition never works. Drugs, sex, porn, abortion, the list goes on. Guns wouldn't be any different. The slippery slope of this is tremendous. Okay, less guns, what's next? No knives? No forks? No tridents? When does this lunacy end? It's disappointing foolish people throughout history have willingly given up their rights for non-existent promised security. It's a tragic comedy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
