In reply to Void. By bringing up Epstein, you know that it's a troll.

Do these morons understand that their legal gun carry becomes illegal the moment they engage in crimes like obstructing and resisting, which their organizations are intent on committing?

I would not offer training to these people. Pretti at least, and possibly Good as well, both seem to have committed suicide by cop, which is one of the most dangerous threats our officers face.

I defend the RKBA rights of our grotesquely misguided communist countrymen, but I would not assist their activities in any way.

In reply to Chris T in KY. In Minnesota a person is required to have their carry permit AND ID on them when they carry. Without that, the person is not carrying the firearm legally but rather illegally under Minnesota law. Pretti had neither his permit or ID on his person while he was carrying his firearm, he was under Minnesota law illegally carrying a firearm. So the argument of "But he had a permit!" is moot because although he had been issued a permit he was not carrying his permit that day thus was illegally (under Minnesota law) carrying his firearm.

I would like to see some of the reasons lefties give for buying and getting CCWs. And I don’t recall seeing a “right wing” push for gun control. More like — if there are rules/laws/common sense follow them?

In gun classes the rules and limitations and common sense stuff are presented and discussed as critical to safe and “legal” carry, no? How many will internalize those? Self control is required for safe carry. Given Pretti’s behavior and the inane (and insane) screaming and whistles that accompany these “peaceful” protests that seems to be lost in the mob. Chances are there will be other incidents like the one Rittenhouse faced.

Probably should separate two motivations for leftists seeking firearms training. One is the same reason lots of mainstream conservatives do: fear of crime. The disturbances surrounding COVID and the George Floyd riots disproportionally impacted places where leftists live. So did the increased crime. I am not going to worry about this. The second motivator is the insurrectionists planning to take on the government. That will be a short fight, if they envision fighting with guns but it is more worrisome if the guns are to provide protection for drones, bombs, trucks etc.

In reply to Miner49er. Out of this "thousands of mentions", not one shows Trump in contact with Epstein in person, nor by letter, text or email. They are mostly Epstein and his cronies bitching about Trump, and Epstein plotting with Congressional Democrats to find something they can use to smear him and coming up empty-handed. A handful are wild anonymous accusations that the police investigated and found to be baseless. I assume the Biden Justice Department checked them out too, and found them to be without merit, or they certainly would have filed charges to go along with all the other kangaroo-court, banana-republic lawfare the piled on him for four years.

Democrat Rep. Jerry Nadler appears to suggest American citizens would be justified in shooting masked ICE agents.

One of the plans of commie Mamdani and his cabinet band of commie-mulsim loving misfits is to make it a thing that American females in New York City must bow to muslim culture and assimilate. Aside from the thing that it would be ‘legal’ in NYC for muslim men to sexually assault ‘infidel’ women – and there has already been a case where a woman sexually assaulted by a muslim man was dissuaded from, and encouraged, by ‘a special police unit’ for such incidents to not report the assault to police but rather to call a special number to speak with a female muslim ‘social worker’ who will explain to them the ‘intricacies’ of muslim men and their ‘special right’ to sexually assault women. But anyway, on this very destructive and unconstitutional and violent and tyranny and authoritarian commie-muslim fusion NYC is to become under Mamdani and his band of cabinet band of commie-mulsim loving misfits, is trying to make it mandatory that women must wear a hijab in public and dress in ‘muslim morality’ style, among other things (i.e. in other worlds create ‘sharia law’ as the law of the city). How exactly all this was going to happen is not fully known yet, but some things were and one of those things was to start indoctrinating females in public schools by indoctrinating them by promoting wear of the hijab. and spreading this to the state.

[NY] High School Promotes Hijabs to U.S. Girls, Hides Islam’s Violent Misogyny.

“A New York high school encouraged non-Muslim girls to try wearing hijabs to ‘dispel misconceptions.’ But the event seems rather aimed to reinforce misconceptions, since it is obvious the girls were not informed about the violent misogyny inherent in and praised by Islam.
