“I can’t really put into words how I feel about the fact that one of the nicest people I ever met was shot because an officer felt threatened,” McDermott told the Morning News.

Falling in line with most people's ridiculous disdain for self-defense in general, this attitude is pervasive and toxic.
It is the same attitude that is allowing the enemy to destroy us. This view that standing up for one's self is wrong and immoral, and that the aggressor must be accommodated and appeased, is disgusting.

Paradoxically, this is actually a survival mechanism of the weak. The risk/benefit assessment of the weak favors cowing to the enemy, hoping they spare you as you throw your fellow tribe member under the bus in an attempt to save your sorry ass.
This needs to be stamped out, and without mercy. Tribe members who do this are a liability and ought to be, well, purged.

This is how most people think when it comes to LEO's:

1) All cops are idiots who are just looking to hurt you when "you" aren't in trouble and don't need their assistance.
2) All cops suddenly become people to be counted upon to save you when "you" do NEED their assistance
3) When it comes to dealing with "Bad guys" cops are the most well trained superhuman dudes out there- able to do magic and disarm violent people without cause for alarm or potential injury/death. They just shoot them to murder them- not to put down the threat in the most viable and realistic way.
4) When it comes to regular citizens gun rights- cops are all snipers and operators and the general public cannot be trusted with guns.
5) When it comes to actual real world shooting and MMQB'ing- cops cant shoot worth shit and shouldn't have guns or be militarized- they just need to be like those club wielding whistle blowing bobby's in Britain.

This is how most people think regarding many subjects. They demonize when it helps along their worldview/opinion/politics/agenda- and then do an about face when it helps along their worldview/opinion/politics/agenda.

People are dumb, they do not use logic, they cannot intellectualize any longer and they are mush brained little slaves beating the drums of their inept "leaders" and repeating word for word what the MSM tells them.

All of this racism masquerading as social justice is flowing from the top down- our Government is trying ever so hard to ignite a race war and come in all protecty and righteous like to "save" us from ourselves when things go sideways- how will they save us? By further dismantling our Constitution, taking away our rights and suppressing liberty.

This is a brave new 1984 don't you know- up is down and down is up. Get used to it or fight it tooth and nail.
Well said.
The cognitive dissonance is astounding.

IF you paint it black, does it become a tactical axe? When is MAGpull coming out with a replacement handle?
Only lumberjacks and carpenters should be allowed such dangerous tools.
Universal background checks, registration, and no Short Handled Axes (they're concealable and stuff).
