You will own nothing.

He is a communist.

Communists believe the Proletariat shall not have any right to private property ownership. Only the ruling class is allowed to own property in Communist countries. They have as much legal right to your property as they have to their own.

It is fundamental tenet of communists that nobody beneath the ruling class can own property.

US Leftists believe much the same thing.

A good old fashioned beat down might mean killing him, nevertheless. Hit with force quick and hard to put them in the hospital and it is up to the Fates if it is the ER or the morgue.


Now, of course, my training topped for military anti terrorism BUT, while we might say that was a different ballgame back during the Cold War.........................


.....................is the crook the same as he was back then or is he worse?

The farther I got into that article the more insane it got.

Quote:
"It's insane that Walgreens has armed security, there's nothing in that store worth a human life, and Walgreens is not taking care of our community," Jessica Nowlan from Young Women's Freedom Center, told FOX San Francisco last week. "We demand an end to armed security."
These people are CLUELESS, as she has basically just said they want these stores to be open season for shoplifters. These stores are trying to take care of the communities by remaining open, but there are limits.

Next up...

"Walgreens announces the closing of additional Downtown Stores in San Francisco due to rising crime".

"It's insane that Jessica Nowlan has a lock on her front door, there's nothing in her house that I shouldn't be allowed to take," a neighborhood thief told FOX San Francisco last week. "I demand an end to her locking her front door."

I wish they were merely clueless.

They are brainwashed in woke Leftist dogma and principles. They are soldiers recruited by Leftists to advance the cause. "Viva la revolucion, comrade!"

40 years ago making such a statement would have resulted in getting a new "hug yourself" jacket and sedation. Now we elect the crazy people.

Ha ha, I sound like a bleeding heart liberal.
I seldom am accused of that but I am an old school liberal at heart and am not ashamed to admit it .
I don’t take it back nor will I back peddle on anything I said.
Not one word.

That said,
I have been trained by multiple government agencies and am required to do continued education on use of force requirements.
Not to give to much away but there is a legal diagram or flow chart if you will on use of force procedures and techniques.
The amount of use of force in a situation can and will constantly change.
Like a quick tide it can change and you legally need to properly react to that change.
You never want to exceed the amount and type of force for any given situation.
This would include beating the snot out of someone.

I read a lot of people here that are for shooting and killing people that steal property.
I’m going to go out on a limb here and guess that they don’t have the responsibility of carrying a concealed pistol like I do.

Would you really shoot a dumb kid in the back if he was hauling away the television he stole from you?
I might slap the snot out of him but I couldn’t bring myself to kill him unless my safety was at issue.

Dumb kids, dumb people are the same to me and I carry a pistol for safety.
The key word is safety, not punishment.

As far as the idiots running San Francisco?
Yes I agree that there are a bunch of dumb asses located in city hall.
