Capitol Hill Blue Forums Hot Topics & Breaking News The RoundTable Round Table Summer 2022

You're pro'lly saying to yourself: You'd be wrong. Dude traipsing around like that is perfectly legal in Oklahoma. Police did find a pair of brass knuckles on him though, and THAT is a misdemeanor. Guess the brass knuckle lobby isn't very strong in OK.

I'm betting he is about to effect a citizens arrest on a judge.
SovCits try to do that pretty often yanno.

Walking into Target armed like that, with employees running out the back door, is a great way to be killed by the police. Lots of states have Stand Your Ground laws now, which say that anybody who fears for their life can use that as a defense when they kill you. If police killed you, they would not even be indicted! They'd probably get a medal.

Maybe this is all a ploy by Republicans to kill of civil libertarians willing to exercise their rights. Anybody ever thought about that?

I think this would be a good time for Susan Collins to resign. She could go out with some dignity instead of looking like a sucker who's voters turned her out. I wonder if there is a recall effort underway?

There should be.

Then, Susan, as a citizen again, should be subpoenaed for the impeachment hearings of Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Barrett for lying under oath about the "settled law" of Roe. They all lied when they stated they support the concept of Stare decisis.

It is often said that a Rightwinger will piss on your leg and tell you that it's raining. Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Barrett did exactly that during their confirmation hearings validating that these people are conniving lying sociopaths who will say anything to achieve their agenda.

That dude mostly looks stupid. A-holes like this give law enforcement a headache. As the article notes, “quite honestly, nobody needs to be walking down the street with a rifle,” Rogers County Sheriff Scott Walton said in an interview about dealing with such situations. “But I don’t make the laws; we just try to live by them and do a very difficult job in a world that’s got those people in it.”

Later, the local prosecutor lamented, some people “want to push the envelope and draw a response.”

“They want law enforcement to make an arrest on a legal possession so that they can institute some type of lawsuit for some kind of false arrest,” Kunzweiler said.

He also said that comes with a heavy amount of decision-making and examination from law enforcement to determine whether anything illegal is actually happening.

The Sheriff agreed. "What would I want my daughters-in-law to do if they had my grandkids and saw someone like that?”

Why even put Law Enforcement into a position to have to decide what to do with knuckleheads like this?

PIA made a good point about standing your ground and being afraid of guys like this one - it won't end well for these Yahoos who walk around like they're armed for battle when going to buy a pair of sneakers at The Foot Locker.

I think it is going to lead to a lot of stores prohibiting firearms and another bruhaha about that.
