Looks like we might have more riots. Another guy shot by the Police.

[Blimey]

Have these cops been suspended yet, to appease the mob? They might even get a grand jury, but the cops acted fine and the video clearly shows it. It doesn't show what happened before this video--and the cops did have vest cameras. My guess is if anything it will justify this even further as they will have spent longer than you see in this video pleading with the guy to put his knife down.

Guy filming was yelling that the Police used too many bullets....

I've never taken a defensive firearms course where any instructor has discussed round count during a life-threatening conflict. Except, perhaps, to stress the need to carry spare magazines.

Question (from uninformed Liberal): "How many times do you really need to shoot?"

Answer: Until the threat is stopped. Possibly zero rounds, if the bad guy runs after seeing my gun. Possibly every round that I can manage to cycle through my firearm. The situation, and the assailant, dictate my response.

Media is reporting 30 Philadelphia police officers were injured in last nights rioting , arson, and looting sprees.

They had to use a nice, clean photo to help advance the narrative

Lovely young lady clapping at :26 when the cop is hit. Rochester had very nifty car barriers they deployed a couple months back. They are light and when the car hits it the car is immediately forced upward.

Look at that....

Not that this was hard to predict...

But I was correct again....

I was never able to be a sniper in the Army.

Each time I used my Army training, I shot until the threat was no longer a threat.

And, apparently nearly every rioter has something in common.

I suspect that this will not improve voter turnout in the upcoming election in Philadelphia.

It sucks. I sympathize with these communities that can't seem to pull themselves out of poverty (and indirectly mental illness that leads to these attacks). The gov't incentivizes people to stay in the cycle of poverty and some people snap. It happens with poor white people too. I also sympathize with the poor guys who decided to become a LEO only to discover they are hopelessly powerless to make any real positive change in these communities. It sucks for everybody and it's really sad that the cost is human life. Regardless of right or wrong, I'm sure that guy had family that loved him. Same with the LEO's being slaughtered at these protests.

I try to never take for granted the comfort of my home and the love of my family... I wish there was more we could do. On the same note, I would do whatever it takes to come home to my family and protect them. Unfortunately, that's the position these LEO's are in.

Yet the police unions will continue to donate heavily to the Democrats that created this environment.

More and more are realizing they have been making some serious errors in the past, many have left that line of thought and have thrown their support behind Mr. Trump.

Better late than never.

 

[Pale Rider]

Personally, I favor shooting anyone throwing bricks or molotov cocktails. Of course, being mindful of what is behind the target is a problem in most cases.

There hasn't been a crowd like this at a Biden /Harris event in a long time. I wonder why he waited till so late in the game to get his base energized?

 

[stokes]

Only one cure for this shit.Water cannons, dogs and long wooden clubs.Bring back the riot squads.

 

[dwa12479]

Police should have got back into their car and drove away. They want the cops defunded, thats what it will look like. Enjoy.

 

[Podmonkey]

I am beyond sick of this shit.

 

[SonOfSun]

That's impossible. Bricks are too heavy to throw.

And then they have cans of soup. Soup. And they throw the cans of soup. That’s better than a brick because you can’t throw a brick; it’s too heavy. But a can of soup, you can really put some power into that, right? --Donald Trump​

But they aren’t given effect roe so they won’t do jack shit.

apparently cops in dc killed a guy also and the narrative is almost certainly a lie but why not riot anyway.

 

[S&W Fan]

And, apparently nearly every rioter has something in common.

I was just thinking , what a diverse crowd that was.

let me guess ..he was a nice boy

Philadelphia rocked by fresh unrest after police shooting

Police reinforcements are deployed with the National Guard during a second night of protests.

Mr Wallace was an aspiring rapper, and often recorded songs on issues including gun and police violence and racial injustice, according to relatives and neighbours, who described him as a "quiet, family man".

I guess having 8 bastards qualifies somebody as a family man.

Quiet family man who kicked somebody's door down and put a gun to their head.

In 2013, he pleaded guilty to assault and resisting arrest after punching a police officer in the face
