One Dead After Shooting at Protest in Denver

Show me where I defended the shooter?


I said your logical reasoning sucked. You proved it again when you said I defended the shooter. You probably will make assumptions about this post. You are O for 3 already.

Keep this up and we'll have to send you back to the Black Mountain Hills of Dakota.

Others are just left leaning and keep quiet about it around gun folks because they know gun culture generally leans right though they pop up on ARFCOM and The Liberal Gun Club Forum.

For that matter, they pop up here, too. Hell, I’m essentially a lib in many areas of contention—I’m just not a dick about it. Or Marxist. Or anti-constitution. That, and my watches run on “colonial minutes.”

Why wear the straitjacket of being defined by a label? Thinking freely and for oneself without being bound by dogma is where it's at...can you dig it?

I knew that you could.

I can, in point of fact, dig it.

So based on the currently publicly available information, it appears the UOF decision was somewhere between Bad and borderline. Investigation and /or trial will need to sort it out.

A big question is did the news crew record what lead up to the shooting? IME professional TV camera men always have the camera running just in case. If so, the police either have that footage or are getting a subpoena to compel the station to give it up.

Shooter was a contract security guard but personally leaned left. Along those lines, did the shooter engage the deceased in the course of his duties because the deceased was threatening the new crew ? Of was the shooter so unprofessional he let his personal biases suck him into a politically driven confrontation ?

....the video game.

Correct.

Googling “Space Invader tattoo” results in a hundred images of actual tattoos on gamer/nerd/geeks

Googling “Space invader tattoo Antifa” results in no actual tattoos.

No one should think “Space Invader tattoo = Antifa” but we’ve jumped to that conclusion. The illogical conclusion made online, and repeated here, seems to be from the fact that an Austrian Antifa group uses the space invader symbol.

Shooter might be a card carrying anarchist hell bent on overthrowing the USG, but the tattoo isn’t proof of anything yet. (As I said before, I’m curious what the text below the invader says.)

Let's cut out the ad hominems.

I don't know what to tell you. If you're consuming American media with the expectation of getting anything other than marketable outrage porn engineered to maximize "engagement" so you view more ads... you should lower your expectations? Because that's all any of it is.

Denver doesn't outrage the left, so that valuable spot is reserved for something that does. It's a simple business decision. Surely we're not against a private company maximizing profit?

Completely agree with you.

I was being facetious with my comment.

When you’re armed and a person violently attacks you then sprays you with mace/OC/CS it’s perfectly reasonable to believe he wants to disarm or further injure/kill you. I know when I went through the academy we were taught to use deadly force on a subject who sprays or threatens to spray us. Same for tasers.

We are all missing key parts of what led up to the confrontation escalating, but even if the shooter was the national head of antifa, I wouldn’t be able to determine he’s guilty of anything. And remember he’s in a left leaning jurisdiction where getting charged for a lawful use of force shouldn’t surprise anyone.

Careful Bro! Without an anchoring point you'll fall off the edge!
