C'mon, Mrs. C, surely you've heard of concealed carry. Just because you don't SEE guns or knives in a crowd doesn't mean they aren't or couldn't be there. Wouldn't you err on the SAFE side where YOUR family was concerned with a large band of threatening angry people storming your peaceful community? Those people weren't there to mow the lawn.Has it occurred to you that the couple might have lied about them being armed? No one reported arms. Did see it on the videos? Ins?
There is no "right" to protest private residences and communities. You have an issue with police or government, you take it to the downtown area to the precinct or mayors office. You have an issue with a private person, you take it to the courts.
I guess she was telling the crowd that SHE FELT THREATENED and if they moved closer or made any further threatening moves, she was prepared to shoot! I know I would. And so would you if your family and children were threatened. Didn't anyone ever teach that group or you that when you break into a private community threateningly espousing anger and are confronted by armed people that you BACK OFF? I know I would.Anyone who has ever attended a gun safety course had this hammered into their heads: you never ever point a gun at someone unless you intend to shoot. That woman had her gun aimed at a crowd with finger on the trigger.
A police officer points his gun at you too when he intends for you to obey and take him serious. If that couple pointed their guns at me, I would say: "Yes Sir. Sorry to have disturbed your family and community. I will leave at once."
