I watched the Laura show tonight. She was discussing the continuing riots and attacks on businesses in Minneapolis this weekend that no other MSM outlet covered. Interviewing business owners, they told their story how they ran to their business only to helplessly watch it be looted, destroyed, and in some cases, burnt to the ground.
Some had businesses handed down for generations. Others were foreigners who came here to realize the American dream. Their city and state leaders allowed their dreams to go up in smoke.
Lowlifes who do these things have no fear, because there is no real deterrent to stopping them. We've seen these so-called leaders tell their police to stand down; to not enforce laws; to not protect these businesses; to allow them "room" to vent.
IMO, a real deterrent works every time it's tried. What if we had a federal law that allowed property owners to use deadly force to protect their property with no ability for city or local governments to prosecute?
A group of thugs start busting into a business. The business owner and family or other employees open fire killing dozens or hundreds of lowlifes. Other businesses do the same. Who in their right mind (after witnessing this) would think of trying to break into, or destroying another business down the street weary if they are armed and willing to kill to protect their investment?
True, hundreds of funerals, but also hundreds of businesses saved, millions of dollars not lost, and thousands of jobs saved in just one city. We need a national law of using deadly force to protect our property.

When violence, rioting, looting and arson come to your front door you have two options.. Either you run or stand and fight for your right to live peaceably and earn a living.... Protecting your family, lively-hood and property is lawful.. Woe to those that would attempt to take that away from the average American.
That's the point, it's not lawful. You can protect yourself and family from harm, but not your property. All you can legally do is watch it be destroyed. I think that's wrong. I think you should be allowed to use deadly force to protect what's rightfully yours; what you worked years and years to create.
Depends on where you live.
God Bless Texas!

"In
North Carolina a person may use deadly force when defending themselves or others from the threat of immediate death or serious injury. This applies when the person in in their home, vehicle, or place of work. The person using the defensive force must stop when the aggressor has stopped the illegal action, or has retreated from the premises. There is no duty to retreat from where the person has the right to be. In this case deadly force maybe used to prevent immediate death."

Understanding the Castle Doctrine and Self Defense in Texas

You can open carry in Texas now if you have a CCL.
But yeah....you can shoot someone for stealing your shit,as it should be.
We've been open carry long before we adopted CCW laws. Problem is if anybody seen another person carrying a gun, they'd call the cops on you.
Yep...
As much as those open carry protesters annoy me at times they're doing a good thing by drawing attention to our rights.
You see cops arresting open carry people with long guns all the time when it's perfectly legal.
The few people here never had a real problem with it. It's just who wants the attention drawn towards them in a restaurant or park when the cops are asking a bunch of questions. My strategy is never let your enemies know what your abilities and capabilities are. It gives them time to make alternative plans for their attack.
There was only one time when I let my enemy know I was armed, but I really wasn't. It was in the Cleveland projects which are pretty bad places to be. I was working for a medical company and exchanging a wheelchair for one of our customers. Three black guys seen me going into the apartment. I took notice of them immediately. After the exchange was complete and I exited the building, those three guys were in different corners, and when I started walking, they started to converge from different directions.
This was in the early 80's and nobody was allowed to carry a gun back then. When they got into a group again, I took my left arm and folded the wheelchair so I could push it with one hand, and my right hand went in my coat pocket. They split up again and walked off the sidewalk giving me a clear way back to my van. They knew exactly what to do and when to do it.
That was my last delivery to the projects which I always hated to do, and I got into truck driving after that.
