Eh? I was only replying to Normiss's assertion that he tried to run someone down. Who said what about 'charging' is neither here nor there.Do you want to have an ideagasm?

rhaig 0 #228 January 29, 2016 I mentioned "charging" as I'd heard it mentioned in a video account. Though it was hearsay. As with any incident, let's see what the official report says before we cry foul. I'll put my tinfoil back on my sandwich. My gut says nothing was done wrong here. I expect the "charging" account will not be confirmed.-- Rob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SStewart 13 #230 January 29, 2016 Sad, and all this bullshit was for what? Because some free-loading religious nuts don't want to pay pennies on the dollar grazing fees. Ammond Bundy said god wanted him to come to Oregon and cause trouble. I guess god wanted Finnecum to die. Why is god such a dick?

headoverheels 333 #231 January 29, 2016 SkyDekker Looks like he is conflicted about what he wants to do, surrender or shoot. His fantasy of how this was going to play out is known, he wrote it in his book: http://pbs.twimg.com/media/CZswE9tWYAAFdP5.jpg ... The video reminds me of reality trumping fantasy. Another quote from his book: “We should be free to make stupid choices if we want and then be allowed to experience the full weight of those choices."

Of course I did. Let's say we were in the Trump thread and someone said "I don't know whether Trump called all Mexicans rapists but he does beat up his Filipina maid" you don't have to deal with the question of what Trump said before you say "hang on a minute, I'm pretty sure he doesn't physically abuse the help". I assumed you'd understand that without needing it spelled out. Sorry.Do you want to have an ideagasm? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ryoder 1,590 #233 January 29, 2016 First photo is the moment of the shooting. Anyone else notice the shooter is using a half dozen LEO's (and their vehicles) as his backstop?Second photo is from 10:00 in the video. Watching the video doesn't show the intensity of the explosion like walking through frame-by-frame.

Coreeece 2 #234 January 29, 2016 normissI'm curious at what a cop thinks about someone driving towards their roadblock like that. Back in the 80's they would've just started shooting at the truck and jump out of the way at the last minute as the bad guy blasts right through the center of the roadblock, unscathed... https://vimeo.com/70280204Never was there an answer....not without listening, without seeing - Gilmour Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JerryBaumchen 1,354 #235 January 29, 2016 Hi Sky, QuoteIn the end we aren't even sure if . . . That might be the best we can do on here. Early this morning I caught a newsfeed that said he reached for his pocket & they found a 9 mm hand gun in his pocket after he had been shot. I've been gone all day & cannot find that newsfeed now.

wolfriverjoe 1,523 #236 January 30, 2016 ryoder First photo is the moment of the shooting. Anyone else notice the shooter is using a half dozen LEO's (and their vehicles) as his backstop?Second photo is from 10:00 in the video. Watching the video doesn't show the intensity of the explosion like walking through frame-by-frame. One thing that happens under great stress is "tunnel vision". You focus on the threat and little else. That sort of "ignore the background" behavior is not unusual. And explosions in real time are no where near as impressive as in slow motion (unless you are actually there for it). Although I may change my mind if more info comes out, I'm probably going to give the cops the benefit of the doubt on this one. He had clearly stated that he'd rather die than go to jail. He clearly stated he would shoot back. When you "telegraph a punch" that clearly, I don't blame the cops for shooting at the first sign of a hostile action. Or interpreting an action as hostile when it may or may not have been. This isn't some poor motorist moving too quickly for his registration, or even some dumb fool fighting and trying to run away because he has a warrant."There are NO situations which do not call for a French Maid outfit."

gowlerk 2,190 #244 January 30, 2016 It doesn't matter in the end exactly what happened. To those who believe in the cause, he is a martyr despite the fact that acted in a way that could only end in his being shot. This is the same as Micheal Brown, also a martyr for people to rally around, even though he deserved what he got. For both very different groups the idea of a fallen hero, taken out by heartless brutal oppressive authorities is what will be remembered. They are now icons.Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
