    ^^ post #1 in this thread ^^

    I watched a one-hour show about the DOJ report on ABC last night. What a damning indictment of just what cowards Texas police officers are. 377 officers afraid to confront an 18 y/o kid with no firearms training.

    Most damning to me were the multiple times the kid had to stop to reload, and the officers bodycam recordings show the officers saying “he is reloading right now”.

    WTF ??

    From my military training we were taught that is the exact perfect time to assault a shooter because he can’t shoot back. If you remember, this is exactly what stopped the shooting in the Gabby Giffords case, kid had to reload, fumbled around, and an unarmed bystander in the crowd rushed the shooter. 1 civilian was braver than 377 Texas police officers.

    Look at the officers guns in the bodycam videos. Most are all kitted up with aftermarket doodads, red dot sights, vertical grips. Their guns look cool and they can brag to their buddies about what a cool gun they have. But then they run away and hide while kids and teachers get slaughtered. Look at the face of that one officer running away from the classroom with absolute panic on his face.

    Look up Pittston Coal Strike of 1989, and jack rocks.

    Kind of an unconventional one, but looks like it would work.

    I devoted a lot of time in 1989 and 1990 representing Pittston in that mess.

    there it is

    ironically, it just adds fuel to the fire that firearms should be regulated much more than they are now

    In one series of texts cited by prosecutors, Ethan Crumbley told his mom that he thought there was a demon in the house and that it was throwing bowls. He pleaded with her to text him back. In her testimony, she said that she was driving back from the horse barn when the texts came in so wasn’t looking at her phone. The content of the texts weren’t troubling to her at all. “It was just him messing around,” she said.

    One key to the case was Jennifer Crumbley’s decision not to take Ethan home from school on the day of the shooting, after he had drawn a bleeding person and a gun and wrote “blood everywhere,” “the voices won’t stop” and “help me” on a math sheet. The gun in the drawing had a striking resemblance to the one his parents had purchased for Ethan as a Christmas present a few days earlier, according to a prosecution witness.

    Crumbley said that she would have taken Ethan home if he wanted to go, but that school officials gave her the option and indicated they didn’t think he posed a threat.

    A ruling by Hawaii's high court saying that a man can be prosecuted for carrying a gun in public without a permit cites crime-drama TV series "The Wire" and invokes the "spirit of Aloha" in an apparent rebuke of a U.S. Supreme Court decision that expanded gun rights nationwide.

    "The thing about the old days, they the old days," the unanimous Hawaii Supreme Court ruling issued Wednesday said, borrowing a quote from season four, episode three of the HBO series to express that the culture from the founding of the country shouldn't dictate contemporary life.

    "As the world turns, it makes no sense for contemporary society to pledge allegiance to the founding era's culture, realities, laws, and understanding of the Constitution," the 53-page ruling says before citing the hit HBO show.

    Authored by Justice Todd Eddins, the opinion goes on to say, "The spirit of Aloha clashes with a federally-mandated lifestyle that lets citizens walk around with deadly weapons during day-to-day activities. "



    Really could not agree more with the ruling, or the language used in the ruling.

    The hood rats shoot kids too. Probably a couple hundred a yr. , at least that’s the number on the other side of the state.

    But yes, this is especially bad. But usually, those shootings never make it off the local page, especially if does not involve white folk.
