(60,771 posts)A group of snipers hears about a group of right wing thugs appearing to threaten some statehouse, and suddenly some shots ring out from some distant place 400 yards distant, whereupon ten of the armed thugs drop to the floor. Or three steroid-addled cops start beating on some pregnant woman with their nightsticks when a few shots are heard and when the crowd disperses, all three of the assault team lay on the ground from GSW. That it hasn't happened yet, I can only attribute to the fact that "libbruls" don't consider violence a solution to anything. But self-defense is another thing entirely. How long will it be before some 21st century version of Zorro show up to even the chances of the victims of the brutal cops? I'm in awe of the restraint shown so far. I only wonder how long it can be counted on to be perpetuated? If they think they are the only ones with guns, they think wrong. Some day, some of them will beat the wife or sister or mother of the wrong Afghanistan vet, and THEN who's the hero?
