For the FTP's amongst us

Wait, am i missing something?

So if you see someone you don't like, you can stop your car and point a gun at them. If they don't run away screaming...you should act accordingly and murder them in self defense.

WTF?

 

When the dog was brought into the conversation I am only concerned with the circumstances surrounding the dog that lead to this confrontation. Dumbass moving towards a loaded weapon is still a dumbass regardless.

 

That’s dirty!!!!

Remember that pie in The Help?

 

How about “if he pulls out a gun”? Would that be a decent way to tell if he was armed?

 

What’s with this “blame the victim” mentality?

 

Why?

 

That's not victim blaming.

If I went to Africa to pet a wild lion and it ate me for dinner, who's to blame?

There's plenty of stupid to go around just from looking at the video.

 

You don’t think you can pull the trigger on your boomstick before the other guy digs his pea shooter out of his sagging pants, raises it, aims, and fires an accurate shot?

 

I'm not blaming the victim. I'm telling you what I would do...flee. It's the same reason I can't stand slasher movies. If people would simply flee rather than opening the door, they wouldn't be dismembered.

 

At the distance they were at, I could draw my weapon and put a round on target before you could identify what I reached for. It's not even remotely hard and it's why LEO are cleared to shoot people who make that motion, and it's why you are trained not to go for your weapon when drawn down by someone.

 

Isn't that exactly what happened?

 

Flee then phone. You gotta live to make a call.
