Joke 'um Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 If my dog becomes aggressive in public, I bring her up short with the leash. These "protesters" are running around without a moral/behavioral leash. Walking in the park, you're approached by a stray pit bull. What is your reaction? Today's protesters are using the right to peaceably assemble and the right to petition the government as an excuse to assault and intimidate fellow citizens. The word for such behavior is "riot". You are always right to protect yourself from assault by rioters. As for brandishing? Old Man Clanton (Walter Brennan) said it best in "My Darling Clementine". "When you pull a gun, kill a man." Otherwise, leave it home. It ain't like showing a cross to a vampire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 I look at the video and see and see a senior citizen, someone my age, almost surrounded by a group who has demonstrated a tendency towards violence. It brings to mind that saying about old people and life sentences not being the same threatening nature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
