Yeah, I know why they do it, but there is no. such. thing as "gun violence". There's just "violence":

Problem solved in 90 days.

That’s still the way it is in many parts of the country.

However, I have been noticing a disturbing trend of cops who are more afraid of surviving a gunfight and the public scrutiny that comes with it over shooting it out. Two videos I saw this week alone of cops getting shot and running away.

I personally think that the whole “urban warrior” thing and the public outcry that was a result of the outcry of the left and the “militarization of the police” battle cry of the right has set back officer survival mindset for a decade in some places.

Why do you think the apologists for and enablers of these scum hate Castle Doctrine, Stand Your Ground, and Right To Defend With Deadly Force laws? LE are obliged to handle even violent miscreants with kid gloves. Plain old citizens are under no such constraints.

I don't carry two handguns, but you'll very rarely catch me without one plus a spare mag, these days. That's only within the last six years.

I remember a time when murdering a law enforcement officer was akin to killing the POTUS. It just wasn't done.

And now it has been normalized, part of everyday life in modern society. And of course, civilian's lives are worth even less.

Self-protection is a human, God-Given right, and our everyday proclivities should reflect that, regardless of circumstances.

Good to have you with me!

I wish my brother would do the same. He is a BLM supporter and anti police. We haven't spoken in two years.

My brother and I got into a hell of an argument over the left’s attack on Law Enforcement Officers and the BS systematic racism argument. We stopped talking for a while over it and many other political disagreements.

Last week he admitted defunding the police and the ideas he previously defended quite vociferously have resulted in him hearing gun shots popping off EVERY SINGLE NIGHT. He won’t defend BLM anymore.

None of this was necessary. Nothing BLM has done has made life any better in this country for anyone.

Face to face with an armed man suspected of killing a Polk County deputy sheriff, SWAT officers riddled his body with 68 bullets.

"Altogether, nine officers fired 110 times Friday at Angilo Freeland, who Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said "executed" one of his deputies.

"That's all the bullets we had, or we would have shot him more," Judd said after autopsy results were released Saturday."

Old Testament justice! Love it! Need lots more of it.

When I first moved to Houston in May 1990 they were calling it Gunpoint Mall.

And I remember that Summer there was a weekend where there were I think 18 homicides...and it wasnt even a record, just tied the old one.

Then Mayor Lanier cancelled some boondoggle light rail commuter project and used the money to hire a shit ton more cops. Houston was pretty safe for a while, then Katrina happend and all the riff raff / worst of the worst from New Orleans moved to Houston.

An HPD cop I know told me what one of the Houston hood rats said to him (hood rat speakin, not my HPD friend) "You gotta do something, these n-words are giveing us a bad name" - even the Houston hood rats were afraid of the NO scum.

I moved to VA for 9 years then back to Houston (Northern burbs) in 2009 and rarely went into Houston, never unarmed.

As for Greenspoint, I have called it gunpoint since the early 90’s at least. I believe it earned the nickname after several armed robberies in and around the mall about that time but it already had a reputation as gang infested from the near by Acres Homes “community”.

Agree 110%. Shoot a cop or shoot at a cop you get dead. Period.

It seems like EVERY FUCKING DAY a police officer is getting shot. Sorry for the language, but if there were ever a case for such language, this is it. I'm damn sick of it. One is too many (obviously).

I’m of the mind that people taking up arms and doing what must be done is exactly what the criminal powers that be want. The headline(s) would read “(insert white persons name) shot and killed 2 black teenagers (the only time their race would be mentioned) in Chicago”. They would be vilified and accused of racism and violence etc. openly on media until the narrative was gospel; whatever the facts were would be irrelevant at that point. Half the nation would BELIEVE the lie.

Now the leftists in charge step in and restart the “black guns are bad” and push for legislation “for the children” even if a handgun was used. All part of the plan. No criminals would be their target, only law abiding citizens whom they really fear.

It is folly to go about these days without whatever weapon a jurisdiction allows. America is not the place it used to be. Not only are there citizens that would do you harm for almost no reason, there are now millions of bona fide invaders that openly hate us, as well as a criminal element that has been created and honed as a weapon against us.

Interesting to see that others carry two guns as well. I'm usually carrying both a 938 and 229. I've been known to carry a rifle and 3 mags in the back seat when going to interesting places.

I can’t think of much that bothers me more than the prospect of Americans divided and fighting with ourselves. I truly believe we are not as divided or different as the chronically dishonest and utterly evil legacy media claims nearly every single day.

I am confident that those who seek to divide our nation and those who want to see us killing each other while they roll cameras and profit from the chaos will be exposed and face consequences. I may not seem like the most optimistic person but I truly believe this. I believe the escalation in rhetoric from them is an indication that they are aware of their power slipping away more and more every single day.

These people went all in to help elect one of the worst presidents in our history. If they don’t think Americans are aware of this across all ideological lines and the damage it has done to their credibility they are not being honest with themselves.

They don’t have to; the media and our corrupt leftist government will spin it as if EVERYONE feels that way. Until we are ready to take up torches and pitchforks as a nation, they will continue because they don’t care what the people want. Control doesn’t work that way.

A) Police exist to protect criminals, not society. "Sheriffs" in their traditional use/investigators* serve to protect society, but not regular police.

*Well, and traffic cops and code enforcement.

B) The JBT bit really was/is out of hand. Waco and Ruby Ridge were pretty notorious, but Atlanta's and Houston's department had major issues with integrity, responsibility, and honesty. I'm sure there are more.

The "Thin Blue Line" idea is BS. No one** thinks a lawyer is evil, if he has to pull another lawyer's ticket/report him to the ethics board. He is, more or less, supported, for taking a difficult action in defense of society.

To my knowledge, doctors and engineers are the same.

Any police with a different attitude, are a problem.

This, of course, is not what the idiot brigade is upset about. They are just a front for anarchy.

**I've done it. It sucked. Some of the family of the lawyer didn't like me very much, but no one else had an issue.

The criminal should not have been on the streets in the first place. On Dec 28th, he got caught by a store owner robbing a place and pulled a gun on the owner. His ass should've been in jail.

However, like many big cities Houston has a George Soros funded district attorney, Kim Ogg, who releases violent felons back on the street for little or no bail. Last year, they released a murder suspect on bail and he killed off the witness in his murder trial.

I believe the first step in taking back our country is that we have to get these George Soros funded district attorneys out of office. It doesn't matter what the police do if the turd is back on the street in a matter of hours. Low information voters eat up the whole line about bail reform being about some poor kid with a joint going to jail, but it's the proverbial magician's assistant as the dirty commies really mean bail reform is low or no bail for any offense no matter how violent. Here is an article listing some of the George Soros funded district attorneys.

They took his ass into custody about an hour ago. Unfortunately, he's still alive.

Now, how do ya like this horse shit? From the linked article:

quote:

As of Jan. 27, four police officers have been killed by gun violence and 24 have been shot and injured according to the Gun Violence Archive, a nonprofit that tracks gun violence incidents around the country.

Turner and Finner expressed frustration with the rise in gun violence in the city and said they would be formulating a plan in the coming days.

"No more excuses. Everybody take an active role … and do whatever you can do to fight gun violence in our city," Finner said.

It's

Not

THE GUN!!!!

Assholes!!!

The members of this forum are armed to the fucking teeth and we are not committing violent crimes! It's not the gun!! FFS!!

This is what we are currently dealing with in NY. Defund the police, bail reform, DA's unwilling to prosecute... What is the first thing they point a finger at? Guns. Ridiculous but sadly anticipated. I think the thing that saddens me the most on a daily basis is the realization that most people in this country are stupid. Willfully so.
