Sorry folks, but I’m glad he’s dead. One less crazy to worry about Redding California is a small town where survivalist type people live.

NRA: Now Obama can declare all patriots as mentally challenged and take away their guns. NRA members are in trouble of losing their guns due to their low IQ.

If he’d ranted about Obama’s birth certificate he’d have a Secret Service detail…

The troubling part of this story concerns the police confiscating the video of the incident:

One neighbor said police fired at least 30 rounds, but another neighbor said he heard about 70 shots.

“It was insane,” said neighbor Steven Killion.

A neighbor recorded video that shows the man walking out of his apartment’s front door holding the weapon as shots rang out.

Police have confiscated the neighbor’s video and don’t intend to release it to the public.

Mind you, police don’t shoot. They “engaged the suspect with handguns and rifles.”

See, to get away with stuff like this you need an assault rifle, and you need to point it at a fed. Not local cops.

Dur.

There’s a poll believer born every minute…
I hate to even bring it up, but the hot campaign trail whispers are all about what some mean-spirited people are calling Trump’s nearly naked Ukrainian hotsy-totsy…

And here I thought it was:

An adult white man, …, and would comply with the officers’ requests.

Which I do all the time…

Shooting might imply hitting. From what we’ve seen of cop marksmanship, it’s likely only one of them hit him, and it was probably while trying to unholster his gun.
