I meet a lot of "special forces" at work, for some reason they are always the drunk ones wanting to fight everyone.

I think I met maybe a handful of "true" special forces in 7 years, they usually don't talk about anything they actually did.

....

I highly doubt that as keyed up as he was, he was thinking rationally any more than the officers were.

I find what you think of qualifying as 'deserved to be shot' a bit disturbing as well. I can understand why the officers did it, and don't find fault with them for it, but he did not 'deserve to be shot'. After all, if being an ignorant, loudmouthed, self righteous prick who threatens cops and other authority figures were a death sentence, the gas chambers and crematoria would have to run day and night to deal with 4chan alone.


He was going for a gun after claiming for weeks now that he'd rather die than go to jail and threatening to kill cops. The only way this shooting could have possibly been more justifiable is if he had actually managed to kill a cop or two before going down.

When it came to it, he really did prefer death to jail - at the least, he was a man of his word. I could probably respect that more if his dying act wasn't actively trying to kill police officers. Good riddance.

(full disclosure, my brother is a highway patrolman like the kind he almost ran over, so I'm probably a little biased).


Automatically Appended Next Post:
I actually just watched the video of the shooting.

If I'm being honest, the trooper he almost ran over looks like that was on the trooper. He ran out from behind a car and got in front of the speeding truck.

But then, the stupid SOB obviously, OBVIOUSLY, reaches into his jacket no fewer than three separate times. The last one, where he's shot, it could not be more clear that he's reaching for something big. There's no audio, but I assume that the police officers warned him the first two times.

Protip: If you don't want to be shot by cops, don't reach into your jacket. Keep your hands visible at all times. If you do need something in your jacket or pants, like a wallet for ID, ask permission.

This goes double if you're a gun-crazed militiamen leader - who again, was confirmed to be holding a loaded, concealed pistol.

But but... he's white! He should have been given every benefit of the doubt available!!! Hell, the FBI had bulletproof jackets, they should have waited for him to fire a shot to confirm his intentions before they executed him. "Comply or die" only applies to dangerous unarmed minorities...

The double standard from the militia people is staggering. This whole situation shows the disparity on how people are treated. These guys pushed every limit and kept pushing farther and farther and got away with it solely on the fact they were white. Eventually it had to end. I am surprised only one of them died in that whole situation. Everything I have seen it looks like this was probably the least destructive way to end this whole situation, and while it had a loss of life, I think they did a good job in trying to keep it from escalating into an all out firefight this way opposed to doing it at the occupied location.

I think it can be argued that the light touch on the part of the feds
was due to the presence of weapons.

It can be argued. I don't know if I believe it entirely.

If the minority protestors showed up anywhere armed to the teeth,
the public would be calling for a nuclear strike.

Sure it would. Not like any minority groups have ever gunned up and called for killing cops.




I don't remember any calls for 'nuclear strikes' or 'droning them' or what ever to be honest. Maybe I missed it.

And? Several folks have labeled these militia crazies as terrorists too.

And called explicitly for killing them.

Do you want to share the videos of Fox and their lovers calling to 'drone' or other wise kill the NBP marchers who were armed?

Too many folks are making statements that minorities would have been killed if they did exactly what these militia are doing. Not folks would have 'called for their deaths' but flat out stating they WOULD have been killed. I continue to say that is BS. Because it is.

Why bother? You've clearly got a case of persecution complex here.

You can say it is BS, but the fact that you have an inordinate amount of minorities being killed in confrontations with police begs to differ with your statement.

There's a big difference between making a threat and almost running over a trooper while trying to run a roadblock and then reaching into your jacket where your gun is. .

That's a good point - I guess a parked vehicle seems a whole lot less secure when a crazed gunman's truck is careening toward it. Guess he just picked the wrong way to dodge. Don't think he got hit, though, which is good.

I dunno, man. I drive and and deliver for a living, and when I slip on the ice in crappy parking lots I know I commonly thrust my right hand into the left side of my jacket at hip level for balance.

Must be what he was doing. It's just bad luck that location also happens to be where he kept a loaded firearm that he boasts about being happy to use, as well as almost just driving over an officer.

A good example of how cops feel about people they are dealing with putting their hands in their pockets is well illustrated in the video posted earlier of the drunk moron who was arrested at the gas station.

I think they learned some lessons with Waco and Ruby Ridge. As far as minority protestors remember that in Baltimore, they were given, "room to destroy".
