He was ASKING for trouble, rather than riding through on the down low, if in fact he had to drive that street. He instigated this by showing up with a flag flying and that is likely why hes in jail. Had he been in a minivan going to pick up his kids, the turnout would have been different I imagine.
Agree mostly, but where did you see he entered into a public area available to anybody on any given day that was dangerous? Who sets that standard? In that situation he had the absolute right to be where he was.But to answer the question, yes, the victim's response was justified, appropriate & restrained. From what I gathered from reading the article though, he intentionally entered into a dangerous, lawless area. Yes. He had to draw. Completely justified. But he will face crippling legal fees now.
He was justified, but that's Oregon. I wouldn't go there.
Yep, pretty much what I said.Stopped his vehicle, exited the vehicle, confronted a crowd, then drew a gun when things didn’t go his way.
Maybe not illegal (they said he hasn’t been charged yet), but not something I’d classify as smart or rational.
When people start planting these communists, the communists will stop attacking and vandalizing law abiding people.
For crying out loud, he wasn't flying a Confederate flag, it was our nation's flag! A person should be able to drive down any street with the American flag without being assaulted or badgered by anyone. Those people that assaulted, sprayed him etc, don't realize how close they were to meeting an undertaker. The guy was ready to pull the trigger.He was ASKING for trouble, rather than riding through on the down low, if in fact he had to drive that street.
