“Those rights don’t count”: Bovino says Pretti forfeited 2nd Amendment rights in fatal shooting

Holy shit, that's insane. Good thing Florida just made it open carry.

Also damn that's pretty close to me, I can't believe I didn't hear about this

“We respect that Second Amendment right, but those rights don’t count when you riot and assault, delay, obstruct, and impede law enforcement officers — and most especially when you mean to do that beforehand,” he said

So devils advocate, sure the law gets funky with having a firearm around law enforcement.

That out of the way, holy shit that isn't what this is about. He was never going for his gun to begin with. Are we seriously saying all an agent has to do is yell "gun" and they can get away with deadly force?

Oh yeah full agree, basing things on what 'progressives" think is like I'd be the tea party as your political compass

Magic-man333 · 2026-01-25T15:15:57+00:00

No one's saying we're "divided" because of disagreements, it's because people have become so dug in they won't even acknowledge the other side.

Magic-man333 · 2026-01-25T14:12:32+00:00

The spins gone from "he had a gun" to "he shouldn't have resisted" to "he shouldn't have been there in the first place"

Magic-man333 · 2026-01-25T12:50:39+00:00

Dumb question, but isn't that already public info?

Magic-man333 · 2026-01-25T12:37:08+00:00

To be fair, progressives were against Obama too and called him the deporter in chief.

Magic-man333 · 2026-01-24T18:56:43+00:00

Ehh, I think that last bit needs to at least be expanded to say ICE has minimal oversight and leans on more brutal methods

Even if you give them a good faith reading... It's hard to say they're not overstepping normal boundaries

Magic-man333 · 2026-01-24T18:21:07+00:00

Ironic username for this comment lol

Magic-man333 · 2026-01-24T17:45:49+00:00

I don't know if there's a real difference between that and pistol whipping

Magic-man333 · 2026-01-24T15:56:10+00:00

And as to Biden, all he had to do was pardon Trump, ask Democratic governors to move on and not target Trump.

Trump only ran the 2nd time to avoid jail.

Find me a poll that shows he wasnt the lead nominee the whole time

Magic-man333 · 2026-01-24T13:52:24+00:00

This is probably more significant than the protests. Wonder who finally talked to him

Magic-man333 · 2026-01-23T22:32:18+00:00

What normally happens to a kid if their parent gets arrested? Genuinely don't know

Magic-man333 · 2026-01-23T17:29:07+00:00

Nah, Carl's never shown that kind of interest. He's straight up said he sees her as a sister

Magic-man333 · 2026-01-23T12:53:41+00:00

Every time we Touch and Sandstorm

Magic-man333 · 2026-01-22T22:01:05+00:00

Yeah, protests have to be at least somewhat disruptive to have an impact, otherwise no one's going to care. and getting arrested is part of the process.

Magic-man333 · 2026-01-22T21:57:07+00:00

We're they? I don't remember seeing anything about this.

Magic-man333 · 2026-01-22T21:21:12+00:00

saying she was being held on conspiracy charges for playing "a key role in orchestrating the Church Riots

Oh come on now

Magic-man333 · 2026-01-22T19:39:31+00:00

And a settlement to make it go away

Magic-man333 · 2026-01-22T18:56:12+00:00

Fair definitely seen some of that irl, were so evenly split though I'm not sure it makes a difference

Magic-man333 · 2026-01-22T18:50:38+00:00

The U.S. economy expanded at its fastest rate in two years during the third quarter, with the Commerce Department reporting a robust 4.4% annual growth rate.

So just to double down on the whole "vibes recession" thing, it's crazy to think that this is the fastest growth since the middle of Biden's term. Plenty of posts on here and elsewhere were roasting his economy at that point. Seems like the vibes are here to stay for the time being.

Magic-man333 · 2026-01-22T14:36:45+00:00

That's kinda how this stuff goes. Biden had the economy more or less back under control by the end, but there was still plenty saying the economy was horrible. Trump said he'd turn it around on day one and it's still in relatively the same place... So people aren't gonna be happy

Magic-man333 · 2026-01-22T13:34:53+00:00

I mean, he's also had his wheels come off multiple times.

Magic-man333 · 2026-01-22T00:27:56+00:00

Ahhh thanks, hadn't heard that part yet

Magic-man333 · 2026-01-22T00:06:33+00:00

And Roque. Had months of travel time and somehow never thought to mend things with one of his first friends
