The law stands on the side of the animals. Period.
The judicial system has been consistently setting these animals (like Eric Clanton) free and prosecuting anyone who dares defend themselves.
We are being cornered and told "you have to allow us to kill you."
Thank you. I've always felt there was something very wrong with how they can put one item on the front page headlines in the largest font possible, then put the "oopsies" in fine print on the back page buried under all the advertisements for used cars, etc.
I agree, but I think their ultimate goal is to find a reason to bring in the UN "Peacekeepers" as an "emergency measure until we can get a federalized police force activated".
..and you know how "temporary" works with the governments.
They should plan to resign, and on the side form private security forces that can be hired by smaller communities that actually appreciate the protections they offer. Maybe they'd even get in with a group that had a judge or two who would actually put criminals in jail for more than a week.
2A (edit for clarification: this would be in the case of cheating only. If we lose legitimately, though that seems an impossibility due to the rampant fraud we already see, then we double down on getting someone we trust re-elected and hope that the country is still around for 2024)
It doesn't matter if he was empty handed and buck naked, the human body is a killing machine and the guy in the blue shirt didn't have fucking 5 minutes to interview the asshole over it to make sure he wasn't trained in martial arts or some form of hand to hand combat.

Vigilantism is going to be the only answer once the police are defunded, but just watch how at the exact same time there will be a major vigilantism related "crisis" that crops up around the same time which will be used to ensure that not only do the police get defunded, but vigilantism will be heavily dealt with by the Feds.
I live in a location that is swelling with the cancer spreading outward from the west coast. One of our neighbors is liberal, and the other, judging by who they were supporting for city government is either hard left liberal or just flat out retarded (the individual they support is one of those stealthy individuals that tries to sound like they are on everyone's side, but peppers their campaign information with "affordable housing" and words like "diverse" and "inclusive")
It's my understanding that Sony has had such a hard on for copyright infringement involving this specific game, that they even DMCA'd their own posting of an image from the game.
