Washington, D.C., is a city filled with meaning and symbolism in the form of memorial statues.
I find it noteworthy that entering the city by crossing the Potomac RIver on Memorial Bridge from Arlington Cemetery in Virginia, leading to the circle around the Lincoln Memorial, you are greeted by a pair of horses’ asses, and two old men groping naked, nubile, young women
She did say the first sentence in an interview on TheDaily Show. There is no proof she ever said the second sentence. Check Snopes or any other fact checker service. I don’t like her at all, but I also believe in the truth. This meme should be removed as fake news and an Islamaphobic slur.
Ummm…if you are using memes to get your news information, you’re gonna have a bad day. They are JOKES!! You know, for a forum full of gun owners who train to end a threat with deadly force if need be, there sure are a lot of sensitive people on here…
I’m focusing on you saying “deadly force”. Training to use the amount of force that is necessary to stop a threat is the focus. If it’s lethal or deadly force due to an aggressor not stopping, that is what it takes. However, if the aggressor stops without the requirement of deadly force, then the application of deadly force, can cause legal issues.
Sorry that offends you. Maybe, take a moment to be clear in your communication, before you decide that you are
the voice of a forum full of gun owners. I am a gun owner on this forum and I train to use the amount of force necessary to stop a threat. If that is deadly force, so be it, that’s what was required to stop it. However, if the threat is stopped, by a lesser level of force. That does not imply that a further escalation of force is lawful.
There is a difference. For example the citizen who stopped the aggressor in Houston. Which, by the way in my opinion, was a legitimate use of force. However his fate, is no longer under his control. As many are pushing for charges to be pressed against him. Due to the threat being stopped and he chose to apply deadly force by shooting the aggressor a number of additional times after the threat was stopped.
If the additional shots had not been used he would have had the keys to the city most likely. But now he is waiting to find out his future.
I was talking s#!t about people whining and getting their panties bunched up about jokes on here. It had absolutely nothing to do with the specifics of self defense or what is or isn’t legal, moral, or otherwise. I also was not acting as the voice for anybody but myself. I simply found it funny that a forum full of gun owners has so many f-ing crybabies.
Before this becomes Olddude v Dave part 2 Im going to end my part of this conversation here and go back to laughing at jokes.
I don’t think anything about you, nor am I offended. This is a public forum. Nothing that happens here affects my day to day life. I try to point out issues that may result in complications for someone. Or I post about an issue that I think may be relevant.
As far as @OldDude49 and @Dave17, I’m pretty sure I’ve made my position pretty clear. .
