Holmgren wants subjects not citizens. I will not give up my second amendment rights because someone wants to be a cop.

"We want citizens to be good witnesses, to be good report-takers and to identify suspects."" He's right, you know. If only the Virginia Tech shooter had known the cops were only there to observe and take notes he wouldn't have gotten nervous and shot himself by accident, prematurely ending his right to act out his aggression.
We must continue to provide safe, target-rich environments for these poor souls or become known as a nation that has little regard for its troubled yutes.

Oakland cop actually saying he wants the citizens he is supposed to protect let themselves be victimized rather than defend themselves. Holmgren said: "We're not saying that we want citizens to go out there and arm themselves and take the law into their own hands. We want citizens to be good witnesses, to be good report-takers and to identify suspects." Where are the copsuckers? Not here to lick the jackboots yet and tell us why the "police are on our side?"

There’s a new sheriff in town; his name is Ron Dellums, mayor, and a proud communist all of his professional life. After a 22-year run in the House of Reps, during which he was consistently voted the most ineffectual member of Congress, he brings his vision of “community policing” to Oakland. This looks like the first test for the seriously aging pinko to show whose side he favors. But I don’t hold out much hope for the people of Oakland. When Oakland-bred former drug kingpin Felix Mitchell was whacked in Federal prison, the leader of his endless funeral cortege in Oakland was...yep, Ron.

The rabble rouser, John Gibson, might have bothered to mention that the police ALSO said the owner was within his rights; and, more importantly, that the DA said it was justified, and NO CHARGES would be filed.
This does no excuse Officer Krupke's Holmgren's assinine statements.

You can’t defend yourself in today’s society. People who can defend themselves aren’t dependent on government. That lack of dependency is the cardinal sin to libs.

Holmgren,here is an idea, oh thou great worthless cop, you be a good report taker and a good witness. Had Holmgren’s family been the target, he would shoot to kill and laugh between photo ops.

So, if I came up to the rapper and stuck a gun in his neck, I would have been OK. He or his boys wouldn’t have killed me with their guns.

Probably a few “motorists” hold up stores, too.

“Well, kind of. Actually Boonie was more than just another rapper. He was also a domestic abuser, a firearm brandisher, a convicted drug dealer, and on the day he died, an armed robber.”
Sez enough.
Rappers are a bunch of low-life dirtbags anyway.
Certain rights, like driving on a highway, can be only extended by the State as the State built and maintains the highways.
Other rights are granted solely by God, like the right to self-defense.
Only those authorities which GRANT a right can take it away.
Kalipornia is a mirror image of New York City on the West Coast.

This is insane!
Even the stupidest rapper or brother in the hood — KNOWS he can get killed simply walking into the wrong neighborhood or night club wearing the wrong colors...
Why are the assholes horrified when one is killed going in to rob a business with a gun in their hand threatening folks?
It should be clear — commit a crime and you may die...
If you don’t want to die, cry or spend your life in prison, don’t do the crime — idiots...
Hell - in a sane world, it would be open season with bounties offered for thumping gangsters, rappers and any gang member with gang tattoos..

If only the Virginia Tech shooter had known the cops were only there to observe and take notes he wouldn't have gotten nervous and shot himself by accident, prematurely ending his right to act out his aggression. For all the cops at Virginia Tech running around with hardware and hiding behind trees while students were being killed, the gunshot that ended the rampage was not fired by any of the donut munchers at the scene.

I’ll bet Boonie “was just about to turn his life around” but for this one moment, he had “lost his moral compass”.

Yes, the NRA has a legal defence team that helps in approximately sixty cases a year.
If you’re not a member, I am inviting you to join. Maybe your donations or membership dues can help this guy.

Next time a convenience store is robbed and the owners/workers are killed lets just do that. As them to identify and give the notes they stood there taking to the cops so they can catch that mean old robber who blew them away. /sarc
