One day.... This is going to happen to a law abiding citizen where the citizen turns the tables on these thugs. Imagine the thugs being hunted down individually in their homes while they are sitting down for dinner. Someone is going to snap. Especially when innocents are gunned down by a SWAT team due to a “mistake”. I hope it never happens, but I believe it will. (no, not by me, I don’t own guns anymore)
If I was on a jury for the citizen, (If he has one) I wouldn’t convict him.

Yes: I lost all of my guns in the big Duck Hunting mishap a few years back.

What the police don't seem to comprehend is that if some nutjob wants
them, there is nothing to stop them. Sure the nut may be killed in the end
but it's not rocket science to stalk or kill anybody.

I fear that too many will die before the police rage ends.
And they used the media to show off their (Look at us) asses.

Actually these things have happened but are sent down the memory hole after appearing in the news. A decade or more ago a mentally disturbed man who had violated no laws but who aggravated Alexandria Virginia cops by conducting ‘counter surveillance’ of them was visited by the Prince William County Virginia Swat team. As the Swat boys were just about to break down his door this citizen , who was not napping, suddenly opened the front door and shot the commander of the Swat team in the throat . It was a fatal wound. The rest of the team then fled in disarray and started firing on the residence. Many more cops arrived and an extended gun battle ensued.The resident kept firing at the army of police and sent a couple more to the hospital. Eventually after several thousand rounds were fired by the forces of order the resident was fatally wounded. The Prince William County cops were obviously enraged that they had been made look like fools and their was a lot of hot air vented about the need for more gun control laws. Something, I am happy to say , the Old Dominion has been universally resistant to. I am sure there have been other such events when one man has managed at the risk of his life to make an army of heavily armed state officials look like Santa Anna at the Alamo.

I'm surprised this isn't already happening. Maybe it is, but they aren't reporting it.
