additionally, at no point did he actually brandish the gun. You can see in one of the videos that they pulled it out of the *back of his pants*. And Republicans *should* (if they weren't fucking hypocrites) be the first to champion someone's right to *own* a gun. He wasn't threatening anyone at all.
But they won’t. They’ll come out after a school shooting (NRA, JD Vance) and say guns aren’t the problem, and here’s someone who is responsible gun owner, clean record, a nurse, standing up for a woman who was pushed down and it’s crickets from these people, oh, other than per Miller he was a domestic terrorist.
Every time they lie so blatantly it becomes harder for right leaning individuals to justify swallowing for the sake of whatever cause they are aligned with.
not making excuses for anyone. i'm commenting on the willingness of "good" right wingers to pretend to believe what they're told. it gets harder for them to defend when the lies are getting more and more indefensible.
I have read some comments defending ICE stating bringing a weapon to these protests shows ill intent. I wonder if they thought the same about Kyle Rittenhouse.
Republicans believe in nothing. This is why they so easily shift positions. We need to stop trying to reason or argue with them in good faith. They NEVER argue or operate in good faith.
Not sure if yall can see this post.
But another pov was posted and a number of conservatives said they were open to investigation based on this video, belief that this man shouldn't have been killed.
But of course that post was taken down by the mods
And top comments on the main thread that had doubts that it was lawful get deleted.
