I stood SSDF a bit during my time in the Navy and one of the things they repeatedly hammered into our heads during training was you are only authorized to use deadly force in VERY specific circumstances. In all other cases, we were only to use enough force necessary to stop the action.

So assuming this situation happened in the military and this person was believed to be a threat, the correct response would be to shoot the guy in the leg or something, as that would likely stop him. If a guy is waving a gun around and acting crazy, you shoot his arm. You don't just aim at his chest and unload.

Why the hell do Freepers think that cops should have less restrictions on use of deadly force than the loving military? I mean besides the obvious "they're hateful racist shitheads" part. Oh wait, I guess that's the only part, huh.

I know that cops are not trained like that--there's no such thing as a deliberate disarming shot. If they shoot, its supposed to be center-mass/shoot to kill. Of course, deadly force should be the last resort and they have a number of other tools they can use, assuming the taser isn't too uncomfortable to wear that day or something.

You give them too much credit. There are a few options he could mean. First, he could be claiming that another group was here first, thus, by his logic legitimatizing wiping us out and making us colonists as much as they are. Secondly, there is a belief among many (Ted Nugent is an exemplar of it) that modern native Americans aren't real natives because we don't wear headdresses, act like characters in westerns, and don't go along with their political and economic agendas. This is analogous to what Thomas King calls Dead Indians. He might also just be stating we have no right to be acknowledged as such.

It could also mean that since Europeans have been here for a few centuries, that "native american" has lost its meaning since aren't we all native to america now?

As always, you can never go too deep into the abyss when trying to decode Freep.

What the hell kind of investigation are they calling for? Statues on a privately owned piece of land were taken down. What kind of crime was that?

The state barred statue removal because "are history"
The City wanted to remove the statues but couldn't do it directly
They could, however, sell the land to a nonprofit who then could remove the statue since it was private land.

So admittedly, it's a little skeevy in terms of skirting legal restrictions, but it's aboveboard.

Btw Trump was one of 5 kids. How come we never hear about the extended Trump's the way we do with the Bush's? I even worked for one of the brothers from the Billy branch of the family for a while.

He literally cut off medical payments for his nephew as a threat to wrest a greater share of inheritance.

Being related to DJT and his brood is not quite as bad as being one of the surviving Hitler family, but it's still not something they're proud of, likely. Or even if they are, they can't capitalize since he's shoved them away from his hoard of russian cash.

He goes to Trump properties. Which he still owns. And forces his security entourage to spend inflated prices to stay there.

Each golf trip costs at least $3M. Most of that is going to the Trump Org's coffers.

And that's just the most direct means he's been tapping the office for cash.

Edit: So it makes his "I'm working for free" bit extra disingenuous. Easy to "give up" six figures when you're stealing 8-9 figures from the taxpayer piggie bank.

F.B.I. Raids Office of Trump’s Longtime Lawyer Michael Cohen

There are quite a few posts like this one, saying that it's specifically going to be the Marines, and ONLY the Marines, that Trump is going to call in and use to start arresting people. I don't know where that idea came from, but whatever, knowing Freep, probably the Turner Diaries.



Freepers fetishisze the Marines as the ultimate badasses short of special forces. Also, from several polls I've seen the Marines are the most Trump-friendly branch in terms of approval and the only one with a majority approval, so it could just be a question of unwavering loyalty to Dear Leader.
