Yes, that too.Or shoots through them instead of answering.
But I'm just really stuck on why someone would decide to grab a gun as a response to a knock on the door.

I've heard Girl Scouts can get pushy about selling their cookies but that's no reason to fire shots through your own front door.Incredibly aggressive solicitors?
Minding their own business?! Next they'll be whistling at white women!!!Hate to break it to you, but it is freaking relevant. When many blacks have been shot and killed for less or for the pettiest reasons and whether they're cops or not, it's usually a white person/or a person presumed to be "white" (Latinos and light skin Asians sometimes get a pass, if it means blacks are at the bottom of the totem pole), will say "self-defense/scared for my life!" when said person they attacked was usually minding their own damn business!
Race mattering doesn't mean race is the only thing that matters. Surely you know that?Let say reports are wrong, and turn out the the shooter was black, would you say "Oh okay, fair enough, nothing to see here, hope that guy stay free"? Or what if it turns out that the shooter had done that before, but to a white person? The shooting may very well be racially motivated, but its irrelevant to the crime. Reading article on it, I'd rather get information about the legal side, some sort of explanation of why he wasn't arrested, whether or not self defense could be claimed (hopefully not, but apparently some state have very wide definition of self defense), are there other similar case that have gone to court before and came out one way or another?
But none of the article I've seen had any of that information, they all just jump straight to the racial side, which is important but only a part of the story (and an unconfirmed part at that). It's just lazy sensationalism trying to pass for journalism.
I think it's clear to see that the American people are no longer willing to tolerate the terror of *checks notes* innocent strangers.It wouldn't have happened if homeowners had the means to defend themselves.

These paranoid dumb asses keep thinking/assuming they're The Punisher, Bryan Millis, or some other generic anti-hero, action guy thinking they're the "good guy", and everybody else is out to get them.I think it's clear to see that the American people are no longer willing to tolerate the terror of *checks notes* innocent strangers.
Cool because what everyone with paranoid delusions needs is easy access to firearms and not, say, urgent medical treatment for being batshit fucking loopy.These paranoid dumb asses keep thinking/assuming they're The Punisher, Bryan Millis, or some other generic anti-hero, action guy thinking they're the "good guy", and everybody else is out to get them.
Interestingly, though I can't remember the source, I'm led to believe that the US Rangers advise (or perhaps at once point advised) not to get a weapon during escape and evasion, and one reason was because even for trained Rangers, it makes them more likely to try shooting when it's not a good idea.Cool because what everyone with paranoid delusions needs is easy access to firearms and not, say, urgent medical treatment for being batshit fucking loopy.
I wouldn't have thought E&E training was necessary for looking after national parks, but there you go. Americans.

Yeah that's my point, every articles on this act like race is the only thing that matters.Race mattering doesn't mean race is the only thing that matters. Surely you know that?
No they don't. You're just wrong.Yeah that's my point, every articles on this act like race is the only thing that matters.

That runs entirely on the assumption that the narrative of "he just rang the doorbell and was immediately shot" is actually true, with absolutely no chance that was a framing story created to drive a specific media narrative. Honestly, I hope the shooter had a doorbell camera because it will either save him or damn him in no uncertain terms. A scenario where there's no hard evidence either way is one where he might go free for nebulous reasons, and that way lies riots.All the person in the house had to do was say, "You have the wrong address.", and move on with his life.
plaaric?you followed the Rittenhouse case, you'd know that anything plaaric is a lethal weapon and deserves deadly force.
Literally not why Rittenhouse was found not guilty. Had the first decedent not thrown anything at Rittenhouse but the rest of the scenario unfolded exactly as it did he still would have been found not guilty. This is only a step less dumb of a take than the folks spouting that he carried an illegally purchased gun (it wasn't) across state lines (the gun never crossed state lines) to shoot a bunch of black folks (everyone he shot was white).So... the first dad who opened fire is not getting charged on anything because a watee bottle was thrown at him (the same castle doctrine used for Rittenhouse).
Yes, yes it is. If this or the common story going around the media is true, the shooter is definitely not going to be able to make a self defense argument, and silly things like the bullet wounds themselves would provide hard evidence to back this one up.Which is the very, very, very hard line between "self-defense" and premeditated murder. You can't claim self-defense when you fire a weapon at someone who is very plainly unable to pose a threat.

I'unno man, I find 'hapless dumbass being mad at people being wrong on the internet' is pretty funny compared to the string of 'lul I dunno', but YMMV. Well, no, you said 'dumbest', but at least he had a really stupid reason.Dumbest reason for mishandling classified documents yet.
