@LostInThePondUS You went on about the word "The" today and it reminded me that author Jude Stringfellow wrote a novel titled "The". Thought you might like it. It's on Amazon. Good book.
@MFRemillard No one said the gun was in his hand. He reached for it later, after this photo. No one denies he had the gun on him do they? No one said he had it in his hand when he approached. HE CONCEALED IT and had extra bullets and no ID.
A guy punches a police officer. The cop stays calm, walks to his patrol car, opens the door—and then a German Shepherd lunges at the guy.
Do you stand with the police officer?
A. Yes
B. No

@robbystarbuck@amuse Brother I have extra in the car, but not on my person if I'm in a store or on the street and you can bet your a$$ I have my ID on me at all times. It's the LAW. Be safe.
Thank you. Pointing out the obvious is necessary for these idiots. His own parents BEGGED him not to go to the protest. He killed himself - suicide by cop.
POLITICAL VIOLENCE: Alex Pretti's parents begged him not to 'engage' with federal officers, but he was insistent. Now classified a domestic terrorist, Pretti brought a military style pistol with optics and between 30 and 51 rounds. He came expecting a firefight at distance. If he were merely carrying for self-protection he wouldn't have had that many rounds on him - it is clear he was prepared to kill as many officers as possible. He didn't bring his permit or ID (it is illegal to carry in MN without both).
@Hefobundna Don't think so. He had reached for it, was shot, then it was taken off of him. Get your facts straight. No ID? He wanted trouble. Extra clips? He found it.
