But, if the looter doesn't throw the brick through the window, the shopowner is in violation of the law -- by brandishing a weapon and preventing a crime. Makes sense to leftward leaning Democrats, I guess..... No, it makes sense according to the law. That is exactly why there is a possibility to prosecute the McCloskeys. Also all your comment is weird. Is the shop owners standing looking out their windows for potential stone och brick throwers? Because that is what they must do to be able to take up a weapon for what you say would be protection before the stone is inside? Are they drawing faster than the stories of Wild Bill and Billy the Kid? Edited October 7, 2020 by Matzzon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense to leftward leaning Democrats, I guess..... Point of Thai law. If you fatally shoot or stab an intruder on your property, you better make sure you did it ON your property and he dies on your property. A friend of mine, ex- Rhodesian army, disturbed a burglar on his Pattaya property and popped off a few rounds as the perp escaped over the front wall, killing him, whereupon he fell off the wall onto the street outside. After being apprised by his neighbor, the son of a cop, of the risk to his personal freedom that this crime scene presented, the neighbor helped him drag the corpse back inside and onto his front lawn. Then they called the cops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimGant Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Quote The state of Missouri does allow the open carrying of firearms, as long as it is not done in a threatening manner. So, I'm walking down the street with my sixshooter stuck in my belt, and carrying a large briefcase -- when two unkempt individuals start running towards me, one possibly holding a weapon. In Missouri, am I allowed to pull my sixshooter out and aim it at the two individuals? If not, Missouri is nuts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if they were well dressed, would you still pull your ‘six shooter’. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sanuk711 Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Grand Juries "Nearly" always do what is expected of them....so that isn't a surprise. The target of a grand jury investigation has no right to testify or put on a defense before the grand jury. Was the crowd protesting at the McCloskey's, or just passing by on their way to protest somewhere else.? If so it seems a bit extreme to come out with a gun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevenl Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 How many to times before did we have this discussion here. We'll all have to wait and see, so far the best indication about the outcome we have is that the grand jury has said a crime may have been committed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnybangkok Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 4 hours ago, TopDeadSenter said: White. Black. White. Says who? How is this relevant? We have no way of knowing how the McCloskeys racially identify. Lots of people that at 1st appear to be white actually identify as being an ethnic minority for a variety of reasons. Just look at Rachel Dolezal, Jessica Krug and Elizabeth Warren. edit to add, and why does white get a small w, while Black gets a capital B in the same sentence? Reuters seem intent to race bait readers, very sad indeed. That may be so, but the McCloskeys go to sleep at night safe and sound in the knowledge there are no rioters and trespassers smashing down their front gate and entering their property. Not sure whether they win the war, but they won this battle. You've posted some questionable statements on here before but this one is in a class of it's own. Are you seriously asking whether the McCloskeys identified as being white or black? I'll tell you what (and mind I'm no expert here) I'm going to guess they identify as white. It's a long shot (excuse the pun) but I think I might be right. And no one was 'smashing down their front gate'. The damaged gate was at the entrance to the complex and was shown by video to be undamaged whist most of the protestors entered. Non one was on their property; everyone was on the street peacefully passing by their property. They didn't have to leave their house and they certainly didn't have to appear on their own lawn brandishing firearms. Anyway, it's irrlevant what you and the rest of those on here supporting these clowns think. A jury of their peers have found them guilty as what they did was against the law. Now since so many of you are all about law and order, you would think you would be quite happy to support this decision but no, the law is only correct (self-defence for Kyle Rittenhouse for example) when it suits your agenda. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
