Will he write, “Please loot the place next door?”

“A 22-year-old mom who works full-time as a security guard at Menards was arrested and charged with looting TVs from a Best Buy.”

Just can’t find good help these days.

All you people want to know where Americans that would defend things are and why they’re not doing it?

“A 36-year-old licensed gun owner was arrested around 9:30 p.m. Sunday after patrolling officers heard numerous gunshots at the scene of looting at the Dollar General, 5018 S. Cicero Ave. They found the man on West 50th Street walking down the sidewalk with an AR-15 semiautomatic rifle with an extended magazine, prosecutors said. He allegedly admitted firing shots into the group. “

Right there is why. His life is now ruined.

Very disturbing. Should this turn out to be a conspiracy that allows rioters to move state to state to reofend, the problem clearly goes to the top of the Democrat party. A breakdown of the offenders bailed out would be instructive.

Watch this - these people are lucky the press was there:

Good Samaritans detained on live TV while protecting LA business from alleged looters:

I've watched enough of these stories to see that cops are deaf in most confrontations. They don't care what you have to say, and won't listen.

Every bad boy they grab has a dindo rap, so they ignore ANYTHING they hear. "I'm the owner of this business," "I was assaulted" "I'm a member of the press" aren't going to interfere with there mindset of arresting the guy in front of them.

Or, as we've seen in many cases, shoot them either.

I was one of those people on an LA rooftop with a rifle back in 1992 - as an underage kid. My decision to do so was based in part on the fact that we *knew* the cops had abandoned the city and would not be around.

As I’ve said on FR recently, that made the decision a lot easier than it would have been if the cops had still been around. I am not at all certain that I would make the same decision today when the LA cops not only have not abandoned the area but are actively persecuting (yes, persecuting) defenders - and completely ruining their lives.

Some of the writers for some of the largest media companies have been referring to looters as protesters. Bizarre.

"Tip: Bounce the buckshot off the street"

Yes. The shot will flatten after hitting the pavement and stay low. In a demonstration a long time ago, I saw a skip shot go under a car and pop balloons fastened to the pavement on the other side of the car. It will lose some energy, making it less lethal, and hit rioters in the feet and legs. It also spreads out much and stops many of them pretty fast. I don't remember the shot size...maybe no. 1 bird?

Any good stories about the riots that may help people prepare in similar situations today?

The situations aren’t exactly analogous, but there’s enough commonality. I suppose I should probably do an “Ask Me Anything About“ thread or something.
