Trump defends armed St Louis couple
“When you look at St. Louis with two people that came out — they were going to be beat up badly, if they were lucky — okay — if they were lucky. They were going to be beat up badly and the house was going to be totally ransacked and probably burned down like they tried to burn down churches. And these people were standing there, never used it, and they were legal, the weapons, and now I understand somebody local — they want to prosecute these people. It’s a disgrace.”

Re: Trump defends armed St Louis couple
it is a universal right to protect yourself and what's yours.
this is always the first right aggresors try to deprive their victims of, . .then they remove the right to complain about it.
this is precisely what we are experiencing in u.s.a. and everywhere, . .
who is the perpetrator? when in the course of human events it becomes necessary for a people, . .etc. great words, . .time has come to exercise them. now or never more again.

Glad to see he's saying something about it. They didn't break any laws. They need some training but they didn't do anything wrong by protecting themselves and their property.

Re: Trump defends armed St Louis couple
The problem with what they did was pointing the firearms at the protesters..

Every responsible firearm owner knows you CANNOT point your weapon at someone as a form of intimidation.

Had they stood there with their weapons slung or holstered and not pointed at the protesters the DA would have nothing on them.
 Quoting: ^TrInItY^


wouldn't they just need to provide evidence that the protesters had bad intentions?

I don't see any difference between this or ol'lady shooting her 44 magnum at a burglar is her house.

Yes, and these laws are retarded. Merely taking it out without pointing it is considered brandishing..... so let's not allow people to judge the situation ... force them to either submit or kill someone.

The problem is not with what the couple did, it's with the laws that make it illegal for a gun owner to make the call on whether to force deescalation or kill.

Technically he didnt, he stood with his gun ready but parallel to them. She was pointing her's so may be charged. Their best bet is to show just cause for their behaviour, recent trend of antifa and BLM rampaging mobs. When the latest mob came through the side gate onto their private property. Reasonable fear of attack etc from a legal perspective which led to their actions. Ultimately its bread and circuses by the DA, cheap head line grabbing against the 'wicked rich people'.

Re: Trump defends armed St Louis couple
Omg someone doesn't distinguish between intimidation IN PUBLIC and self defence IN PRIVATE!


So it's illegal to 'intimidate' criminals tresspassing and threatening on your property?
Well then you definitely can't shoot them,

You are correct. Plus they came onto private property the second they broke the gate, so there is a legal argument to be made that they feared for their life based solely on that.
Also, from what I saw, the wife was the only one who pointed a weapon at anyone.
I'd rather be real and rejected than fake and accepted.

That's my understanding as well, and I am in Missouri. We have some of the most aggressive firearm protection laws in this state, including castle law, constitutional carry, etc.

I understand one should not brandish a weapon. However, this is a bit different as their private gate was smashed and individuals came on to their private property, threatening them. Legally, I would think that gate being smashed was akin to your front door being bashed in and intruders entering your abode with force.

Re: Trump defends armed St Louis couple
You guys should read up on this couple a bit. They are a couple of lawyers that have a history of swindling people out of property. They had a duty to retreat in this instance, but think that everything in that subdivision belongs to them.

Normally I'd agree but not this time, they broke into private property. Owner can do whatever he needs to get rid of them if he felt threatened.

My understanding of Castle Doctrine in most states is that it only applies to WITHIN your four walls, and inside of your vehicle. At least thats what the CCW instructor told us. I have always wondered if this is accurate, but there is such differing info online (imagine that)
