Should you shoot? Riot edition

This, unfortunately, is the “kneeJERK” that will be heard around the world. The dynamics of this situation and the time it is taking place is the worst possible, it’s called the perfect storm. This changed from protesting to looting to all out anarchy. When Mayors, politicians and police give away law and order to the anarchists it becomes more deadly.
I can’t get over the fact that a police precinct/department abandoned it’s post. I have no words for this cowardice. If our military acts like this, we are doomed.
I was living in a fantasy world for two days, thinking and expressing to my wife, this won’t happen in our state until I read this mornings news. Boy, am I an idiot.
I’m treating this like the first 30 days of the pandemic because what we are seeing is pure pandemonium.
This could actually be the start of our revolution.
I’m really sickened by that video, our children had to see a murder take place in real time. Worse a murder by someone in a uniform. How can a child respect the uniform after this?
This may sound quite idiotic, but would it help if the idiot cop presented himself to the country and made a sincere apology to the family and us as a country? He actually owes us all an apology, the same way China owes us an apology, or am I just losing it?
I do feel bad for his family and his neighbors. He could have been my neighbor or your neighbor.
I actually felt better about the Coronavirus.
Now I have new concerns. I have grandkids the same age as the “protesters”.
I pray I never have to draw my weapon. With everyone in masks it’s going to be a whole new level of awareness. It’s not just the mob mentality, the lone wolf predator will have it’s way, it can smell the blood.
I was on high alert for the pandemic, I don’t know how much higher my awareness can get.
Hope everyone stays safe out there. This morning I’m going to pick up some groceries, is this a survivable task?
