But did the *cough* victim shout “Hands up, don’t shoot!” after he fired at police officers?

Close to another Trifecta, but a three-pete isn’t shabby at all. Thanks, Gun Bunny.

That the burglar was armed with a knife, suggests he expected to be confronted. Or was he going to use the knife to make a sammich? That he was fool enough to think that a knife would be sufficient, is his problem. The victim should have at least put one in a limb, marking him for future identification.
If the Good Citizen had of put the “warning shot” center mass we’d of had a two (2) in a row DRT Trifecta. Oh well, tomorrow is yet to arrive. FGS happen everyday, some figures show that over 2 million a year, which is north of 6K a day. Seems as if the suppression of these stories is getting worse. Doesn’t fit the narrative, I guess.
Interesting article on that Standard Arms Model G. Some of that narrative reminded me of a coupla gridiron competitions of late, ie “…was a heartbreaking, maddening jammer…” “It wasn’t supposed to be that way…” On any given Saturday. *sigh*
Right. If our Virginian kin had been quick to squeeze this could’ve been glorious, so now we settle for great.
I’ll sleep well.
About only one way to keep the recidivism rate down these days!
You brought up Navy’s victory over Army this year, not me. The Mids had to win only one game this year, and they very nearly achieved that record. Go Navy.
That being said, did anyone else notice the absence of Our Illustrious Commander-In-Chief at the game? Seems he had more pressing issues in Delaware.
‘Sides, imagine the optics of the entire stadium, filled to capacity with military and their dependents shouting “Fuck Joe Biden!” on national TV.
Now that makes me grin.
Stand by for another Al Sharpton deployment to Ferguson in 4, 3, 2…..
If the 4 LEO’S were behind the local shopping strip cooping and talking about contracts and retirement, they wouldn’t be in sharptons and the lame stream media sights. They didn’t follow the Ferguson effect that you don’t do anything except expired meters and expired tags on empty parked cars. I’m assuming that the perp now cooler than room temperature was not of my race.
“not of my race”.
What are you? An E.T.?
I am humbly sorry about the not of my race error remark. Was thinking of something else
