    Has there ever been an armed conflict in human history when atleast one idiot far away in his ivory tower didn't say, "well they were an idiot for being there in the first place"?

    It was probably said about the "idiots" at Lexington, probably said about the "idiots" at the Alamo, and probably said about the "idiot" freedom fighters in France in 1940...

    If only those people had just complied and left it up to the people in charge and let the trained military to the job for them, Im sure things would have turned out better.

    On that note... A "no blood for oil" antiwar friend of mine (when I was still a leftist) once said about a friend of mine that had permanent ankle damage from IED shrapnel in Afghanistan; "He volunteered, he knew what he was volunteering for, he shouldn't have been there if he didnt want to be in danger."

    I just don't see it in a paramilitary context.
    One side is operating in a paramilitary context and one isn't. Maybe that needs to change.
    IDK Sled. The Antifa fags aren’t going into the burbs or the country now are they? They know better.

    If Portland won’t put down its riots - which could be done easily - then that’s on them. Conservative paramilitary action ain’t gonna save the city.
    There's a reason they don't come here!

    Nothing I've read or seen in this story, which is a lot, has changed my mind that the kid shouldn't have been there. For that matter, no one should have been there. Protests are dumb. I don't care what your cause is, get out of the fucking road.

    What my mind has been changed on, with @Swaye being the first making the argument, is how he handled himself once in the situation. He didn't fire indiscriminately and fired only when directly attacked.

    People died in the street, not in someone's house. There must be a legal process. However, I hope that he is acquitted.

    Big picture, I feel the country got lightly that there were relatively few of these incidents.

    So I tell you yesterday I am taking a break from the Tug because the shit slinging is gay and unbearable, and you @tag me in this thread, which you know interests me BIGLY. Oh you devious and clever toilet. This is a VICTORY for perineums everywhere. Well played Grumble. Well played.
