      Its hard. I’m not going to defend the police on this since holy shit there was so much horrible horrible decision making on the part of the cops. Making blind shots into an apartment and not caring about over-penetration at all is so fucking stupid. While Breonna Taylor did not do anything to deserve getting shot, we have to remember her boyfriend did fire at police. Bloodshed was really the only logical end of that story. Before this gets misconstrued, the cops basically kicked in the door at the middle of the night (12:40 am) with little to no warning and I can see why the boyfriend would absolutely open fire. Its just fucking ironic or I guess really sad that the conservative’s fucking wet dream situation just happened but due to the occupants being fucking black it gets all so political. When most of the time these dimwit conservatives are saying this is the* fucking purpose of guns. A unknown entity is fucking kicking in your door at the middle of the night and you have a fucking right to defend yourself if they are to be believed but nah since she dated a drug dealer (not her current boyfriend) all that shit goes out the window. Its infuriating and it really does bring to light the over abundance of no knock warrants and how they are handled. I just think with hindsight we can see the boyfriend did make a bad choice but with the information he had at the time I can’t blame him for opening fire but it does make the situation very muddy.

      Note: I also want to make note in an earlier draft of the message I also made mention of the cops being in plain clothing as well. I don’t know how I forgot to make sure that was mentioned but it is a very important fact. So even though they may have yelled “POLICE” you have a fucking shithead in t shirt and jeans. Which isn’t very convincing

        Yeah, it’s really the tale of the hypocrisy of conservatives. Guy has a gun, uses it for home defense against sudden home invaders (dubious decision, but one commonly encouraged in our culture); man should be a hero to these “COME BACK WITH A WARRANT” doormat cunts. Instead, it’s all apologia for the police.
