Shoot the MF's. They won't come back.

I was having a spirited discussion with a fella who did not support 2A.
He had somehow asserted that citizens never defended their own properties with firearms and I used the Koreans in the LA riots as one example.
He had no knowledge of that and denied it ever happened.

Like now I lived in rural southern Kansas. I had fewer guns, but I've owned an AR almost continuously since ten years prior to that riot. I probably owned a Colt SP-1 back then with several milsurp 30 rd. mags. I always tried to keep 1,000 rds minimum. Probably had a Ruger P-89 ready to rock and roll. I watched the events on the TV with interest. Got three channels out of Tulsa, on good days.

I was working about 7 miles south west, alternating between job sites in Hawthorne & El Segundo.

They didn't release us early, as nobody in authority seemed to understand what was happening or didn't want to be perceived as overreacting.

My drive past burning buildings was interesting, a Colt Commander & just 1 spare mag suddenly wasn't as comforting as it normally would be in a civilian setting ....

Valley Cottage NY ,working for a retailer in NJ 'nobody beats the wiz' . very poor policing , the LAPD predicted the riot will start at a liquor store but did nothing.


P.

The Koreans WERE bad mofo's. They shot first and didn't ask questions where their property was concerned. Good lesson, but that was 25 years ago and they were Koreans, not caucasians.

Another thing about those Koreans, I'm sure some of them were kids during the war, and have no hesitation to pull the trigger. Rioting is nothing compared to full communist invasion of your land.

They weren't the only ones.

You just didn't hear about it.
