    And the worst thing is is that it is all too much to decipher.
    You could go mad trying to wade through the morass.
    And I suppose that is part of the plan.

    Not cool to raid people for defending their home. It is getting to the point where you can't defend yourself when people threaten you with death.

    Yo, that word. I don't think it means what you think it means... in educated circles it's well known that this word is not in the same word family as the n word.... the use of *****rdly predates the n word. Also look at the context. It is about being stingy; with money and such.

    Here is another article. One of their lawsuits was to keep a gay couple out of the neighborhood. Another is suing to claim association property as their own, even though it is not theirs.

    This entire thread is hilarious. The protestors were on private property. Period. Half these libs in this thread wanna b**** about their 1st amendment rights but fail to realize what the 2nd amendment is. I’m not in defense of this couples actions but some of the posts in this thread are sure pushing an agenda.

    They were protesters, not looters. Furthermore, protesting has historically often involved civil disobedience like trespassing on private property for example. You don't have a good grasp of the basic facts here.

    And do you think that changes anything? Do you think they shouldn't have the right to defend themselves if a mob is threatening to kill them and their dog?

    They were a mob and they were breaking the law. They were harassing and threatening death to the couple as well.

    So what? Protesters break laws to make points. See, history.

    The couple pointing guns at them you mean? That couple?

    Do you consider it a peaceful protest if people are breaking the law and threatening people with death? Did you know peaceful protest and unpeaceful protests, lynch mobs, and riots are different under the law? Also there are times when it's legal to brandish a weapon. If you are being threatened and need defense it's completely legal in most places. Not an expert on St. Louis mind you, but regardless they did nothing wrong. If someone threatened to kill me, especially a mob, I think I'd have two choices... flight or fight. They are fat and old so what option did they pick? Fight. And that's completely OK in a free society with gun rights.

    LOL! You are delusional. Since when is peaceful protesting destroying property and throwing death threats around? Speaking of having a good grasp on the basic facts. Again you are clearly talking out of your arse.
