If you disobey an order from an unidentified armed person who wears no badge, patch or

[Atticus]

other insignia indicating they are LEO, what law have you broken?

Are we to the point where dressing in camo and brandishing a firearm makes a person "the law"?

If one is threatened by one of these unidentified gun-toters and shoots them with their lawful concealed-carry weapon, would that not be justifiable self-defense? (i.e., "Who knew?)

Barr and the boys are playing with fire.

1. That is a hell of a question... I did not even consider that

till you brought it up.. I have been so bothered by the fact that people are refusing to identify themselves.. it just sends such a chill down my back

2. Stand your ground.

Seems like justifiable self defense to me.

Too bad you’d be greatly outnumbered.

They've been building their very own dream militia!

Isn't this just what Erik Prince does globally, for shits & giggles?

4. RUMP and BillyBarr WANT one of their people shot -

that will allow them to expand to draconian measures to quell “the violence.”

5. Your question cuts through a mountain of shit. NT

6. Especially when the Alt Right dress exactly the same way

Like these MAGATs also won't be doing this to people.

There is a literal legal and ethical reason why military and LEOs wear rank and insignia, and don;t dress like Putin's Little Green Men.

15. *ding!* Exactly.

7. they surely know they are merely ordinary, albeit heavily armed, citizens

but they have an understanding with the donnie administration.

they probably can't arrest anyone themselves, but they can pin someone down and hand them over to legit police.
they can certainly threaten and fire tear gas and whatnot and push people out of an area they're trying to "secure".

as private citizens, they might be committing things like assault with a deadly weapon, but their understanding with the donnie administration is that they wouldn't dream of charging them with anything like that.

if somehow an ordinary person decided to "stand their ground" and shoot them with a lawful concealed-carry weapon, donnie's troops would probably just pummel and maybe kill that person on the spot, why would they bother with a problematic prosecution.

9. a legitimate and salient question

and one that I'm sure elected representatives all over the country are fielding in their offices today.

10. If this is a party of armed folks, keep in mind movies are fake.

If this is one guy, keep in mind rule #26 from the USMC rules for gunfighting:
Your number one Option for Personal Security is a lifelong commitment to avoidance, deterrence, and de-escalation.

13. I am hoping that Barr's colossal ego

will sink him. He thinks he's fully in control of the whole shebang.
