A guy asked why you need a gun. Shouldn't the "defund the police" crowd answer that?

This woman took a wrong turn, and the rioters were on the top of her car. She had a two year old girl in her car. The police wouldn't respond, because of the moronic police defunding that the left wanted. I couldn't find this in a YouTube or Google search. When that happens, use duckduckgo. Bingo. I knew it existed, because Tucker played it on FOX. FOX is the channel that liberals say is fake, and at the same time say the border is secure. Even Biden stopped telling that lie.

[Flatmanlewis]

Yeah. I like hearing the Defund The Police idiots double-speak and back-track when they try and explain that position.


The unbelievable irony is that their claim of wanting to protect people from a less-than-perfect criminal Justice system has led to a ridiculous spike in crime in every major US city and most of the midsize ones too.


Most criminals would be far better off being apprehended by police officers than any random collection of citizens. Then again, when citizens do actually apprehend criminals they want THEM charged with crimes so the only people this DTP idiots seem to actually care about is the criminals themselves.


Hence, I will not support in any way, any person or organization that even remotely supports that nonsense.

[ChinaGrove]

I agree.

there have been B&Es in my neighborhood. My next door neighbor's house was broken into while I was home recovering from surgery. It was in broad daylight. It could have been my house and in my condition I could not have fought back. A few months after that I bought a handgun and a shotgun.

Stupid people think that owning a gun means you want to shoot people. It's quite the opposite. We pray we never need them. But we can't count on the liberal court system to protect us. Look at the border.

I am trying to get myself used to the idea of shooting somebody. There is a big difference between hitting a target, even a moving target which I am working on and shooting an intruder I have been told that if you point a gun at somebody it has to be with the intention that you kill them. I am angry that it has come to this. I have only fired a gun maybe a dozen times in my whole life. I hate the idea that I have to deal with this.

Google the Mantis X.


You can dry fire all day long without the cost of bullets. You will get as good as John Wick. I practice with a video game. I put on the red dot sight. Learn how to pull the trigger without the dot moving, and you will master it. It's not all aim, the trigger needs to be mastered.

[ChinaGrove]

And never use the gun sites. If you take the time to use those, you're dead.

I have heard of the MaNtis X. I own a 357 S&W model 66 and it took me a little time to get used to handling a K frame. It is larger and has some recoil. I try to get to the range at least once a month. I did not want to go with an automatic because it seemed too hard to maintain.

[ChinaGrove]

The Mantis is expensive, so I don't have one. With video shooting there's no recoil. That's why I recommend dry firing. Get used to no recoil. In a home invasion, recoil is the least of your worries. But if you get to anticipate recoil, it clouds your reflexes.
