Detroit Police Aid Armed Terrorists Menacing LGBT Parade

[Shadow Wolf]

According to witnesses there was a man with what they thought was a gun and in the same vicinity they heard a "pop-pop" sound. I want to believe those witnesses. We just have to wait for what the police find out about this.

BB guns don't go "pop-pop." (Very often you have to pump them for each shot, so two pops also excludes a BB gun) And there is simply no way anyone is going to hear a BB gun in that kind of environment. You might as well be listening for a whisper.

With a BB gun? Is the man mad? A BB can hurt, but the guy can probably punch harder. Or a pistol whip with the gun. Thats certainly more effective than a BB. Unless you want to put an eye out.

His intent was probably to scare and not to shoot. According to the linked story it looked like the real thing.

Those are the sort of guns that cops hate at times. They look so much like the real thing that they can and have shot people for brandishing them.

A BB gun will scare, till they realize its a BB gun, a gun that practically does nothing more than sting like hell with a chance of being lodged in the skin. But it's not likely to maim enough to effectively use for self-defense. And he said "I'll shoot the mother ****er." He'd be better off carrying pepper spray as it is at least capable of incapacitating someone.

You can shoot someones eye out

You can shoot someone's eye out

They can, but it's unlikely to actually happen. You either have to be a crack shot or you target holding still. It makes for a poor and foolish self-defense plan. You can technically shoot out an eye with a blowgun, but don't count or plan on it unless you're exceptionally skilled.

Once again the police have decided that armed Nazis and racist terrorist are more in need of protection than those they are menacing.

Do you really think the police constantly following and watching the Nazi protesters were there to protect them? If a group of police officers had been shadowing the leaders of the Pride parade all day, I doubt it would be perceived as being for their protection.

I can understand the error. For the gays this is a rather emotional subject. It is a case where they feel "there oughta be a law!". They are quite calm compared to the reactions of some of the gays that were there. The actions of the police made it a loss for the Nazis. They could not be violent. At least and still try to claim to be on the side of right with the police "protecting" them. You should click on the story and watch a video of two from it. The police prevented attacks on that group that could have resulted in a very violent response .

I agree.. Shame on the police.

Yeah there shouldnt have been any police there at all. Let human nature take its course.

What? Come on now. That makes too much sense for this kind of subject.

You mean to injure or kill anyone who is different?

Except for the videos in the article which show armed Nazis being protected by police. And why doesn't this blog (my source) lack credibility? Is it because it is targeted towards a gay audience? Do you have something against gay people?

Why doesnt it lack credibility?

When I see something from an advocacy group, be it
Sierra club or VFW, I dont just take their word for it,
and the less so when I see such hyperbolic language.
"More to the story" is usually the case.

We had the "MAGA kids" a while back, who were wildly
misrepresented, with overheated language. What was
actually going on was pretty much the reverse of what
the ones with partisan axes to grind were pretending.

As for your "something against gay people", that, I
hope, was unworthy of you.

In D.C someone shot a gun near a LGBT event (he was arrested) which caused the crowd to panic, then there are the "Straight Pride" counter marches going on near LGBT events and here in Los Angeles we have a big police presence on the streets to prevent anything happening at any of the LGBT event because there have been threats.

fake news

Once again the police have decided that armed Nazis and racist terrorist are more in need of protection than those they are menacing. Instead of placing these white Neanderthugs under arrest for disturbing the peace and disorderly conduct the police in their lack of any sort of common sense gave a big finger to a community under siege and encourage these racist criminals to commit more terrorist acts such as these because the terrorists know that the police will be on their side.

Those terrorists had no legitimate business being at that parade armed to the teeth, the only reason they were there was to harass, intimidate and terrorize the LGBT community and the police let them. Shame on them!

Political garbage. The cops are doing their job by surrounding the problem group before things get out of hand. That is not an endorsement of the group's views.
