  1. ‘…..the looting possibilities at a tattoo parlour are mighty slim.”
    That has little effect on the B&E nor the arson……

  2. In Canada the RCMP would already have the guns removed, both doors kicked in and any locked cabinets broken open while they look for survivors.

  3. Guns for defense against overpowering criminal threat or if out numbered by attackers are the great equalizer – note to the gun haters: notice how no one had to be shot here because the display of defensive arms is enough to deter a criminal attack.
    – But defensive arms in the hands of the law abiding are worthless if using them for this purpose is outlawed. What puts the teeth in justified armed self defense is a “stand your ground” law such as these Missourians enjoy – which removes the insane duty to retreat provisions of last resort self defense laws such as the ones which encumber a Canadian’s security of home and person – even if you are confronted in your home by an intrusive criminal threat a Canadian will be charged for confronting the intruder even when there is no where to retreat to. This immoral interpretation of the right to defense of home and person puts Canadians in more danger from criminal invasion than even a Russian citizen.

  4. “-But defensive arms in the hands of the law abiding ….”
    but, but..we have elected Conservative government ……never mind

  5. Xiat, there is nothing – NOTHING – the Harper government could have done to reverse the current situation around personal disarmament. There is only so much rolling back of the statist policies put in place by decades of leftists and CINOs that can be accomplished in any term, or two terms, or generations. Think how long it took all that creeping statism to manifest, while we Canadians enjoyed our hockey and our beer and the TV that hypnotized us into apathy. Look how Turdeau has jumped on the First Nationals fiscal accountability deal and immediately promised to reverse it, and how he is being cheered for it!
    No – politics in this country means veering wildly from rationality to dribbling insanity and back again, and I don’t see much hope for that changing unless the average IQ and a love of reason take a sharp upward turn.

  6. Love it- sawthis posted on I Own the World this morning before work. Same reason why Korean store owners are not looted in LA. All I have is a baseball bat under my bed.

  7. I have no way to verify this, but it is verifiable, and if true would suggest that the media has some whitewash left over from the Travon incident:
    Little Michael Brown Jr. [the victim in the Ferguson incident] was arrested in a neighboring town, St. Ann, MO in November, 2013 just after he turned 18. He was charged with Burglary 2nd Degree Felony, Armed Assault/ Serious Personal Injury, a 1st degree Felony and 2 counts of Undefined Felony Assault. The Local News (Channel 2, FOX) stated he “Had No ADULT RECORD” but omitted the fact that he looked like he was out on bail awaiting trial. HE assaulted a Ferguson Police Officer after shop-lifting from the Quiktrip that was looted and burned early this week

  8. Well if anyone is wondering why on earth anyone needs an assault rifle now…all you have to do is ask how many feral Africans live in YOUR neighbourhood?

  9. Only sorry that they didn’t march the young thugs back to the Dollar General and persuahjde them to put the stuff back.

  10. “A St. Louis County tactical operations armored vehicle blocked the intersection horizontally at that very moment. Police protected by body armor sat atop the vehicle and methodically fit 40-caliber automatic weapons into tripods and trained them on crowd.”

    Apart for not having a clue wtf a “40-caliber automatic weapon” is supposed to be I would be much more worried about the goons in uniforms than about the rabble on the street.
    “We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.” ~ Hussein Ogabe al-Chicago

  11. it sure does not say much about the black citizens of this town. if there are credible eye witnesses to the shooting, then a march on city hall, with no looting and violence, and the proof that the shooting was not justified would work in their favour.

  12. You are correct. They do not care about what is justified or what is right, they care about the opportunity to get away with wrecking and/or taking things that they cannot normally get away with.
