    Why would dare even be a discussion about even a possible remote scenario where he was charged with anything or even fired? This country is gone mad. I’m telling y’all right now if a bunch of hoodlums are trying to break in my truck and climbing all over it it’s hammer down time. And next time I go home? I’ll be fully arming myself until this mess is over!

    these people are not “protesters“. They are thugs and gang members and the lowest levels of society using this as an excuse to burn down their communities.

    There’s usually some sort of question to it, like when that FedEx driver shot a robber a few months ago. Most of us have enough common sense to know he did nothing wrong, but the people who make those decisions don’t always have that. However, St. Louis has plenty of self defense killings, so as I said he won’t be charged with anything.

    And I didn’t call them protesters.

    Typical. Someone get’s themselves killed by
    1) blocking the truck for no reason other than loot it in name of protest. As by their comments in the video with the Amazon “brotha” that they let go in name of protest.
    2) getting in between large heavy objects that can move and kill you in name of protest.
    3) open back door of said large heavy object that can kill you to grab whatever you can grab in name of protest.
    4) have a bunch of angry clowns that can’t speak english or politely tell you that someone is stuck there in name of protest. ( they are peacfully protesting remember. Sure whatever) in name of protest.
    5) beat on truck and make driver feel threatened for life in name of protest.
    Than blame everybody but themselves for their actions in name of protest.
    I personally would not stop for anyone until a cop stopped me after I broke free from that terrorism in name of protest.

    I don’t understand why the drivers on the highway wern’t pushing back and clearing their way through. Why are they scared. This is one reason way it’s gonna be so easy for unarmed people to take your stuff and rule this country. All those people were sitting there thinking I don’t want to harm an inocent person so I’ll sit here like a duck and quiver in fear and tell themselves i’ll take the beatings and the rape and other harm to person and property cause I don’t want to push back and defend myself in fear of being called a rascist.
    But none of those are inocent people. The innocent and smart people are not doing terroristic things towards other people and acting like thugs and anarchists and flashing gang signs. They are holding signs and candles and flashing peace signs and other protest friendly feel good family things. Or just staying home like the rest of us pissed off at what happened to a man by bad cops and still getting along with every human being we encounter and deal with daily to pay some goodness in life forward for a civilized society.

    A national CCW permit gets my vote. It's too much trouble to get one for every state that doesn't have a reciprocating agreement with your permit's home state. Would make a few people think twice about jumping on the running board of a truck if they were met by the barrel of a gun aimed at their head.
