It's like catching a person with an ace up their sleeve and having the dealer say "well he had a Queen high straight last hand so what does it matter?"
We need to kick the card cheat from the table. We need something done.
Interesting trivia, a local church in San Francisco used to do this. They used the church bus to drive congregants up through the area. That church grew in size and collected a lot of political clout. It had so many Bay area politicians in their back pocket. Eventually the leader of the church, a Rev. Jim Jones ran into some trouble in South America.
Yup. Whole lotta blue state politicians that may not win reelection if we hit them with election reform.
This whole cheating thing isn't hard to understand. If during a card game an ace falls from someone's sleeve, we all know what justice looks like. We wouldn't expect the other players to prove the cheater played a pocketed card. We wouldn't expect them to prove that the cheater would have otherwise lost. We wouldn't expect them to replay the hand. No, we would take that cheater's winnings and reapportion them out and toss him out the casino... at best.
Alright, here's the deal. Bad training will undo good training. So don't just do anything. Asking for advice online can be helpful but cna hurt you if you get bad advice.
For the legal aspects of lethal use of force, Massad Ayoob and Andrew Branca are the best resources you'll find. Ayoob's Deadly Force and Branca's Law of Self Defense are the gold standard on that.
As far as learning and using the pistol, a 380 is considered about the most basic level of round for personal self defense. It's fine but you'll want to get quality HP ammunition. This may be a problem as it's all backordered everywhere. Look up reports and tests on the ammo you choose and how it shoots out of your barrel length. Shoot a few to test its cycle through your weapon.
As far as training, seek out the local range and ask who they have with a good reputation in your area. You'll want to learn how to carry your weapon and conduct a proper drawstroke and acquiring a sight picture. Dry firing may assist with this practice. You need to develop muscle memory. Generally the fight goes to the person who can put hits on target first so it's crucial to get that down.
This isn't really something that can be taught in a few paragraphs. So it's hard to say precisely what should be done in brief but you'll want to secure the fundamentals.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who made the connection.
Yup.
To be concise:
- A pic went viral of Kyle in a BRCC shirt with a code attached from a sponsor for BRCC.
- BRCC released a statement saying they aren't sponsoring Kyle and take no role in legal disputes.
- The CEO liked two BRCC supportive tweets that called Kyle a murderer.
- It was revealed the CEO donated to Obama, McCain, Gabbard, a republican state senator, and to 2020's ActBlue campaign.
That's a weird way to quantify it since they're in the majority. It's a slim majority but Republicans dominated them by a bit more in recent history when the GOP had the majority.
