This shows the wisdom of the founders giving us the 1st, and 2nd ammendments. The rights that protect life.
Ridiculous.
I’m in no shape to outrun thugs. And I’m not one to toy with them. If they want a piece of me if will come at a heavy price. I may not have a firearm at all times but I can do quite a bit of damage with what I always have.
My wife has her own weapon and spare mags....she would be embarrassed to have to sit while I did the heavy/dirty work.
Sound advice. But why does the author assume only of of them will be carrying?
They also lie when they no longer can trust the police to enforce the law. That line of officers watching people being beaten in San Jose and doing nothing was a political watershed that nobody in the media has shown any sign of noticing yet. That one will resonate far past November.
Gives you something to think about. Also, depending on your vehicle, consider the possibility of your drivetrain becoming entangled with protester debris if you are forced to mow thru them.
Mexico has committed acts of war. We should invade and take over that corrupt hellhole!
Not so hypothetical. It happened in Ferguson.

Resets the rules of engagement, doesn't it? Among other things.
It would be a long drawn out guerrilla war fought to conquer a place that not even its own people want to live in.
The same idiots tell us to be tolerant of others who are different or have opposing ideas while they use violence to shut down free speech that doesn’t march in lockstep with their inanity . Anarchy is what they represent .
Leave in peace from a place in which they have been forcibly disarmed.
"Forcibly" you ask?
Sure. Try to go to a presidential candidate's campaign rally, armed as is your usual habit with a concealed or openly carried pistol. See what happens.
I hate to tell you but the rules were changed a long time ago.
I call to your attention two legal cases from 1981. From Wikipedia:
“In two separate cases, Carolyn Warren, Miriam Douglas, Joan Taliaferro, and Wilfred Nichol sued the District of Columbia and individual members of the Metropolitan Police Department for negligent failure to provide adequate police services. The trial judges held that the police were under no specific legal duty to provide protection to the individual plaintiffs and dismissed the complaints. In a 2-1 decision, the District of Columbia Court of Appeals determined that Warren, Taliaferro, and Nichol were owed a special duty of care by the police department and reversed the trial court rulings. In a unanimous decision, the court also held that Douglas failed to fit within the class of persons to whom a special duty was owed and affirmed the trial court’s dismissal of her complaint. The case was reheard by an en banc panel of the District of Columbia Court of Appeals.”
“In a 4-3 decision, the District of Columbia Court of Appeals affirmed the trial courts’ dismissal of the complaints against the District of Columbia and individual members of the Metropolitan Police Department based on the public duty doctrine. The Court explained that “[t]he duty to provide public services is owed to the public at large, and, absent a special relationship between the police and an individual, no specific legal duty exists.” The Court adopted the trial court’s determination that no special relationship existed between the police and appellants, and therefore no specific legal duty existed between the police and the appellants”
Isn’t nice to know that unless there is some kind of special relationship (I couldn’t find a definition of this anywhere) the men and women who your taxes support have NO requirement to provide individual citizens with “adequate police services”.
Now, does all of the repeatedly demonstrated lack of police response make sense? Do you now understand what happened in San Joes any better?
Get used to it folks. Unless local politicians and police forces have to buy their own equipment from their personal savings there will be no improvements. What business would tolerate this level of fraud?
“Serve and Protect”???
Better to be tried by 12 than carried by 6.
A vehicle is a weapon in itself.
They start rocking mine, and I’m outta there, no matter how many bodies I have to leave behind.
lol. Like our politicians aren’t corrupt! I think they are worse.

Watch the recent in-store camera footage from yesterday's terrorist attack in Tel Aviv. People running for their lives.
Even firing a warning shot can work wonders as a repellent.
