- A federal judge dismissed major felony charges against two former Louisville officers, ruling that Breonna Taylor’s boyfriend firing a shot was the legal cause of her death, not the flawed warrant.
- The judge reduced civil rights charges against the officers to misdemeanors but upheld some lesser charges, with a trial still pending.
- The U.S. Justice Department is reviewing the decision, while a third officer involved has already pleaded guilty to conspiracy and will testify.
Been saying, if my door explodes off the hinges without warning, I’m firing into the gap, no hesitation. A Colt .45 lives on my desk and I practice with it every week, not posturing here. If I can fall back to the AR-15 leaning on my nightstand, well, good luck to me I guess.
Been called a bullshitter, macho, tough guy, whatever. “What are you gonna do? Outgun the cops?! LOL, die then you idiot!”
If they no-knock my door, it’s a no-win scenario, they’re here to kill me, might as well die with my boots on. Not going to lay on my belly and beg for my life. (If you’ve never seen the pigs execute Daniel Shaver, give it a watch. Once was all I could handle.)
I don’t own a gun, and you can downvote this dude’s comment all you want, but his logic is impeccable. If you can’t use your right to self defense against an armed incursion into your home where your children sleep, then when?
It’s 2024, this is genuinely a sane opinion now.
In one country.
Perhaps more, but places like Mozambique don’t get much play in the news cycle.
