Minnesota has no stand your ground law. If someone is looting you, you're fucked.

"John Rieple, the owner of Cadillac Pawn & Jewelry, a store in Minneapolis, Minnesota, has been booked on a murder accusation after a man was found dead of a gunshot wound on a sidewalk near Rieple’s business, according to Hennepin County jail records.

The shooting came amidst a night of major unrest in Minneapolis following the Monday death of George Floyd after a police officer restrained Floyd with a knee pressed to his neck. Anger over Floyd’s death spilled into the streets, as people looted and torched businesses. Videos showed heavy looting at Rieple’s store. A graphic video, which you can watch later in this article, shows the shooting aftermath outside Cadillac Pawn & Jewelry, but be aware that it’s very disturbing. In that video, bystanders claim someone was “shooting from the pawn shop,” which police haven’t confirmed."

He should have called the cops.

He had insurance, didn't he?

No need to murder someone.

He will have to learn a hard lesson.

I can't tell you how many times I've personally heard this straight from an officer's mouth.

Blue states keep on bluin'! You would think that libtards would eventually see they create nothing but 3rd world shitholes for their states, with laws that protect the criminal thugs, not the law abiding citizens. Yup...the South is a great place to live - love our stand your ground laws!

Whether you're there to loot or shoot,
once you're done better beat feet and scoot...
...don't be on scene when the po-po arrive,
might be the decision that keeps you alive.
Pawn store owner knew he didn't want to go to jail,
but he forgot that these riots are too big to fail

So the new rules are : let the criminals do whatever they want.

And if you laugh about bring a bat to a gun fight if the gun owner/user is trained...most alloy bats when used in defense has a button on the handle to shoot a dart. Enough said.

He needs a riot attorney...they have some specialized "riot" laws there that he could use during his defense.

Yes. Women take note. Democrats are allowing black men to rape your ass and get away with it. You are not allowed to fight back.

Men, you have to watch.

Rape is a forcible felony and is justified use of deadly force. And justified use of deadly force by third party.

Defending an armory also justifies use of deadly force, and pawn shops are armories.

Many pawnshops are also Agency drop sites so the owner probably has a national security mandate.

Good. Stealing is not a capital crime.

And indiscriminate shooting from inside the building to the outside was dumb.

Put this asshole under the jail.

Minn sucks big time,, I live in Georgia and I can protect myself from someone trying to harm me anywhere I go with a gun,,knife,,club or whatever I can find to use and if I catch you in my house robbing me,,I can shoot you too... It is also a felony to assault an elderly person here.

They are arresting white people just to placate blacks so they don’t riot even if the whites did nothing legally wrong and were justified. Happened in Georgia and now happening nationwide. Blacks are receiving preferential treatment and are being allowed to run wild. Caucasians get out of the cities now while you still have a chance.

Patriot groups of the Midwest need to organize a little jailbreak.

Minnesota has no stand your ground law. If someone is looting you, you're fucked.

People posting on this thread saying "shoot to wound" have no clue about firearms.

There is no such thing, that is a political/Hollywood concept.

The human body is not meant to take a projectile at 2000+ fps, period.

If one survives getting shot, it is luck.

This is why Tasers were invented.

Uh no you won't. If they try to sue them that would be a death sentence for them.

Yes, according to the Democrats, absolutely, let them rape your daighters' loot your business, kill you and your wife after raping her in front of her. Because if you dodnt let them do that, and you kill one of them, you will go to prison for murder.
