Walking in the middle of the street and confronting someone in a car.....so peaceful.

Other people have a right to move about as well, especially on a street IN A FREAKING CAR

To be fair, inconvenience is not considered a reasonable fear for your life your safety. Would be a terrible self defense claim. Not that the protesters are right, just that killing is a pretty big stretch.

Looks like they're ramping up the "protests" all across the country.

Guess the Democrats feel the need to sow more chaos.
"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

Obviously I wasn't there but "inconvenience" could quickly lead to fearful of your life depending upon how aggressive the rioters were.

The grossly outnumbered armed civilian got attacked by a mob for honking his horn.

He chose to do something while things were going south.

Totally agree; when the **** hits the fan, stuff moves quickly.

I'm sure the video doesn't illustrate everything, but I didn't see anything on the video that should lead to a gunfight.

Funny thing about cars is that some people behave as if the vehicle is an extension of their body. Their instinctual reaction to their car being hit or attacked is to react as if they've taken a hit or attack on their body. Vehicles are very personal, so attacking them is high risk because among some individuals it will trigger the same response was if you'd attacked the person with them not in a car, fight or flight or ego/pride rage, only they are in a car and can run you over or in some cases fire bullets.

To be fair, I don't care. Marxists will not give any mercy as you are lined up against a wall to be shot.

Also at night, in Texas, surrounded by a mob banging on your car....good chance of getting off.

I don't know if you can, but can you get an order for Ons, that's O-N-S,
Junior Market, the address is 1934 East Anaheim, all the windows are
Busted out, and it's like a free-for-all in here and uh the owner should
At least come down here and see if he can secure his business, if he wants to...

So to clarify this "story"

Protestors walking down a street, most likely illegally, stop traffic, begin banging on a car, someone hops out, identifies the perpetrator as a paraplegic, her husband steps in front and takes the shot.

Seems absolutely reasonable a person would pull a gun on a paraplegic.

Serious question:

You are in your car and get stuck in a protest. You honk and people start slapping the hood to your vehicle...someone yells, I am going to ****ing kill you....


Reasonable fear for your life? I would have pulled my gun. One brick away from being knocked out?

I can tell by her description of the events, that if I were to have witnessed the event, I likely would describe it a bit differently. I know this because my expectations have been calibrated by watching interviews of people in the crowds and comparing those interviews to the footage.
Agreed, I believe she was in the area, I do not believe she actually saw the events unfold.

Damn, seems like this gal should have been at home watching Friends on netflix or some *****

This **** is pure hysteria. No way around it.

I was agreeing with you. People banging on a car and the shooter targets the non threat in a wheelchair?


Shooter probably just fired wildly at the multiple threats and hit the person in the wheelchair.

The violent Biden voters believe they are entitled to blocking roadways.

Some drivers also believe they are entitled to using the road ways.

Conflict is inevitable.

A person in an SUV hopped over a curb and attempted to run over peaceful protesters holding a "Defend the Police" rally in Colorado on Saturday.


you were saying...?
NO AMNESTY!

in order for democrats, liberals, progressives et al to continue their illogical belief systems they have to pretend not to know a lot of things; by pretending "not to know" there is no guilt, no actual connection to conscience. Denial of truth allows easier trespass.
