I literally thought to myself "here's my cover for my 2020 mix tape" and then read your comment. A great and bizarre picture indeed.


jesus christ. That seems like a produced photo. The cast, the wardrobe...the house. Seems like something Banksy would do. And i would think jeez how lazy, so fucking on the nose.

Pink Lacoste shirt and assault rifle plus Karen with a handgun. What a year this is!

i just read that mob of peaceful protestors broke down an iron gate to enter that road despite 'private property' and 'no trespassing' signs, and when the lawyer in the pink shirt who was eating dinner saw them and told them it was 'private property' someone threatened to kill him, his dog, and burn down his house.

what an asshole for attempting to deter that with his lawfully owned firearm

and - get this

look at this crazy white power shit he had the nerve to tell the news:

Quote:
Mark McCloskey, 63, told KSDK-TV he is actually supportive of the work against police brutality. In fact, as a lawyer, he represents victims of police-sanctioned violence.

“I do civil rights cases,” he said. “Right now, I’m representing a young man who was assaulted by the police who is sitting in prison right now for being involved in a car accident after which the police came in and assaulted him. It’s on video.”

“I’m not some kind of extreme, you know, anti-Black Lives Matter guy,” McCloskey continued. “I do these cases. I have been doing them for decades. I mean, I have on the wall of my conference room — I’ve got an anti-slavery broadsheet, the abolitionist broadsheet from 1832. It’s been there as long as I’ve owned this building. I mean, I’m not the enemy of people that really care about black lives, but I’m apparently the enemy of the terrorists and the Marxists that are running this organization.”


what an asshole

The threatening to kill his dog thing... Are the protesters upset at the cop's near monopoly on the unjustified shooting of dogs? Cops have been getting away with trespassing and shooting dogs for far too long: its our turn now!

If that's the case I can't argue he had a right to respond the way he did - that's fucked and no one should be threatened like that.

I still hold that the graphic here is so jarring and something that 99% of people simply cannot relate to though. So glad that he had his assault rifle available to calm and diffuse the situation and ensure no one got hurt.

Its a claim the homeowner made in an interview, I haven't heard any audio that supports it.

I appreciate that you guys in particular are living through difficult and turbulent times and that there is a lot going on and some real fear in the air. I sincerely hope that people can keep their shit together though and remember that the goal here should be peaceful change. People getting threatened, wanton damage to personal property and bringing out the guns isn't going to make anything better for anyone.

it doesn't matter

we have selective video of his reaction and that's all that matters

and if a peaceful group of people smashed through an iron gate and started marching toward your house en route to intimidate a person in another house along the way you would be totally cool about it too and just run inside and bring your children out front and grab your djembe and just start groovin to a crunchy beat and show THE MAN how we FIGHT THE SYSTEM

then your wife would just start hackey sacking with protestors

and you'd burn some incense and light up a huge fatty

and everyone would just totally peacefully cooperate and at the end of the day your lawn would be in great shape and everyone would be totally respectful of your bathroom leaving it in exactly the same pristine shape as before

I think the right is learning the opposite lesson here. How many counter protesters that open carried got assaulted? How many unarmed counter protesters (or bystanders) were assaulted just this week? It seems that being armed is the only way those on the right can assemble and protest.

How the turn tables. You'd hope that the Protestors would be smarter than that, but as usual I seem to be under-estimating the intelligence within any particular group.

I'm out - I have work to do today. Carry on crew - and stay safe.

I dont think it's just the right (though I'm not sure about the trump banners here. That guy is useless.)

I am annoyed by his choice in firearms. At the very least he has enough money for an NFA item. If a full auto AR isn't quite up to snuff, I was thinking he could avoid muzzle sweeping his wife with this sort of setup:

And who knows, maybe that would've btfo'd the protesters.


If he wanted to compliment his house, he should have gone with a 6 pounder and a double load of grapeshot.
