Couple in MO being held as 2A heroes...

[WillBrink]

While I have zero empathy for those protestors, I think we do ourselves a potential harm by making them some sort of 2A gun totin' heroes before we have the facts and know who they are. Right now, I see them as classic hypocrites, and I dislike that even more than legit anti gun types.

They did far more wrong than they did right in that event, and we 2A supporters best check out those who decide to stand with. Something does not smell right...

They contribute to dems and anti gun dems and causes, and supposedly defended the looters in court pro bono. What?

I read they're registered Dems, then not. Regardless, what I smell is "guns for me, but not for thee" types, and until I know more, I'm not feelin' them. Secondarily, their gun handling, hers in particular, is truly cringeworthy to watch.

That mob they were a "victim" of they helped create, but when the barbarians are at their gates (literally), the guns come out.

Disregarding bad firearms handling and tactics, this was an excellent example of how the 2nd amendment was intended to work.

I think even more so, look even the clueless and untrained can prevail.

If one wants to isolate it to just that event, sure. However, they're getting some hero warship on social media and they don't deserve any of it and are precisely the types we are fighting against. Maybe they will be of use to the narrative as people point out how fast such people see a value when it's them at risk, but right now, people are missing the irony of the event.

Or a Nazi flag. As it turns out he has defended many black people in court.

Mostly agree with Will. I'm all for appropriate armed self-defense and I wouldn't have enjoyed the protest march, but this looks more like brandishing by fence-sitting types than like any sort of principled 2A stand.

That would have been awesome, given their politics and all the idiocy surrounding the "boogaloo" meme.

The lady reminded me of "Yolanda" from Pulp Fiction. (The restaurant robbery scene)

Samuel Jackson: "Tell that bitch to chill!"

Ringo: "Be cool hunny-bunny!"

Yea, it is ironic. Hopefully a wake up call for folks like this that the 2nd Amendment has a purpose and value along with showing him exactly what he has been defending is wrong... but not going to hold my breath...
