    Lol, well they had no problems seriously wounding the unarmed BLM protesters by shooting them with “rubber” bullets.

    They wouldn’t touch the right wingnuts showed up at protests with guns.

    They also wouldn’t touch an armed group distributing food to homeless and needy

    They didn’t touch the Bundy’s when they took over the wildlife refuge offices in an armed standoff.

    So cops are fine shooting at unarmed people, but if they’re going to face well armed threats they play nice.

      Yep. Doesn’t even have to be a group of armed people doing “maybe illegal” things. It can be a single person doing absolutely illegal and horrific things…like Uvalde.
