You can’t shoot someone for trespassing

I understand that. I misunderstood his question.

Obviously a verbal warning before shots fired.

I look at TV and see how cops do it, so I would expect to get the same courtesy when I go to court.

They had no problem arresting people on the beaches and enforcing other nonsense, but as soon as it affected them, now they want to stand with the people. Did these fools not see this coming last year? Did they really not expect the tyranny to pass them by? Don't answer that... they probably did think they would skate by.

Police, Firefighters In LA Form Group To Resist Vaccine Mandates | ZeroHedge

Police and firefighters in Los Angeles have formed a resistance group against COVID vaccine mandates for state workers in the city, stating that they aim to “maintain human rights, constitutional rights, civil rights, and civil liberties as sovereign natural free human beings, and American citizens."

I guess now we gotta call LAPD "sovereign citizens" now...

So the Minneapolis City Council seems dead set on eliminating their Police Department. A Hennepin County judge rejected the proposed ballot language as ambiguous, and now the City Council is holding an emergency meeting to revise the language. Ultimately, it will go before the voters of Minneapolis.

Personally, I hope the measure passes. You get what you vote for. A majority of the citizens of Minneapolis voted for their leaders, and now they are about to serve as a cautionary tale. Sometimes your function in life is to serve as a warning to others.

So it goes with Minneapolis. There are a number of cities these days that are all but completely unsafe to live in, or near.

Minneapolis is about to say "Hold my beer."

What’s scary is the people pushing this stuff have infiltrated most major cities. We see it in Knoxville right now with the Covid stuff. Groups posing as teachers are trying to organize walkouts so schools will shut down and there’ll get their way. It starts small and moves on to other things like abolishing the police.

When I retire, we're going to end up in a two-bedroom cabin somewhere in the East TN area. Hopefully on the side of a hill. Walland, Townsend, Seymour, or more down towards the Tellico area. Maybe North Georgia. That's a good area as well. But wherever we end up, it will be nowhere near where all of that crap is floating at or near, and we are going to live out our years in peace, and quiet.

Unless someone tries to take it away from us.

You’ll shoot someone over a simple assault?

It's not necessarily an unreasonable response if I'm held to the same standards as law enforcement. But again, in this hypothetical, there would have be a certain chain of events that would need to happen before it gets out of hand. There is no guarantee that I would be able to call the cops during a hypothetical like this. You are talking about an extreme and a rare event.

Just give the people the same powers and immunity to handle these situations and everything will be fine.

Yeah, that’s a purely foolish hill to die on, but you do you. Safe to say you won’t be relocating to Minneapolis to enjoy those “powers and immunity”.

With any luck, your theory will be tested in Minneapolis. It will be interesting to see what those who live there think about it down the line.

What Minneapolis and these other cities are doing is ridiculous. I've never jumped on board with what they are going for.

That was in reference to the conversation about a person defending their home or dealing with a "trespasser".

Police have a place. They need to go after killers, robbers, rapists and vandals/property criminals. But writing tickets, enforcing silly house rules and engaging in the drug war is not their place. And choking people out for passing a fake $20 or selling loose cigarettes is unnecessary, also.

They get tons of arrests of killers, rapists, robbers from writing tickets and other “minor” infractions. And those two instances happened because of the criminal resisting arrest or fighting police
