the woman is a bit off, she will be slower to a proper shot,

she should hold it with both hands, but she has her finger off the trigger,

so overall its not too bad.

actually the way she hold her gun i think she will lose in a gunfight

I don’t think so....the weapons they are holding are not British. Maybe Sweden or another European country.

Don't know much about weapons, but to me look like Heckler & Koch used by some UK Police

Fixed the Reuter's headline.

Your line is biased, Reuters' is factual. 

[Surelynot]

A Republican activist has claimed Donald Trump is the "bodyguard of civilisation" who gave up a life of luxury to save the US.

Yes, they are carrying guns just incase they get confronted by an angry violent mob .

If they get attacked, they would raise their guns .

Yes, the keyword here is "attacked".

People protesting peacefully is something entirely different and there is no need to aim weapons at them.

No reason not too either...do you know how many meters a person can move in a second or two? When seconds count, the police are minutes away.

Now if anybody would have told her how to use it that would be even better. Like: Don't shoot your husband in the back!

no she doesnt, but i agree she will not shoot properly in that position,

and she will be slow to take a proper position for a shot

The George Soros funded Open Society Foundation has made no secret of their support for "progressive" candidates in local district attorney races around the country (U.S.) and it has provided financial support for their campaigns.

How do we know anything about her fingering of this weapon or shooting posture from a single moment in time photograph? I do agree with you, however, that her finger is not on the trigger.

It gets weirder and weirder...

 

Both Pompeo and Vice President Pence count among a leading rank of Christian Zionist politicians in the United States, who link matters of geopolitics — whether confronting a regional nemesis in the theocratic Iranian regime or helping Israel extend greater control over the Holy Land — to biblical prophecy and revelation.

 

Pompeo has spoken of waging his “never-ending” political battles until the “rapture.”

 

Use Google, lot more similar stuff about what drives the trump administration

So you mean they went into a locked community? Strange that only these two morons reacted then. Why was not the whole community scared and out with their guns?

Probably, because they did not see it like a threat, and do not hate certain people. They even have people in the same community that see them as haters and wrongdoers. 

Not much to discuss about. Two morons that unfortunately live in a country where even idiots can have guns.

I would suggest she is more than competent in the use of that gun, most folk I have taken shooting are incredibly fearful of having a gun in their hand, she ain't....

PS. The gun business end is no problem for the guy's back, or anywhere else........????

Wow, that's an impressive couple of speakers - Honey Bunny and Pumpkin really haven't aged very well. Perhaps Scott Baio or the Pillow Guy will bring the intellectual heft to carry all that water for the GOP.

Quite impressive to have been in power for almost 4 years and not yet have a platform for these minor issues such as COVID-19, re-opening schools, etc. Almost like their version of governing is to completely destroy and ignore the government.

I take that point...there is no evidence this DA is "corrupt." But you asked for support for the proposition that Mr. Soros has a connection to this DA.

Thanks for posting this vid, simple1.  That was a frickin' awesome speech.  I watched Biden's speech, too, and this one completely blows Biden's out somewhere in the vicinity of the outer rings of Saturn.  What a pleasure to watch.  Delivered with genuine passion rather than the forced and, to me, faux passion of Biden's speech, which a Hollywood B-actor could have performed so much better.

 

MAGA - Trump by a landslide in November 2020.  Four more years!

Trump 2020 guaranteed.

 

 

Not only decry the 2nd amendment, but will actively confiscate them if kamala Harris has anything to do with it. 

All in the name of protecting " our babies". 

Then Completely fails to see the irony in that statement when she promotes 9 month terminations.

Look like UK anti-terrorism police on patrol. So far as I know in the UK Police with lethal weapons do not confront protestors.

That's right, in the UK they go down on one knee to them. Unless of course they are veterans protecting statues, or members of the public walking their dog on the moors, or a child playing in his front garden. 

Then it's the full force of the law.
