"appears"

It's already begun:

Reminder that "armed with a gun" is not the same as brandishing or shooting. In most parts of the US, it's perfectly legal to be armed with a pistol.

Possessing a firearm is a death penalty offense in Trump's America, huh

[–] nialv7@lemmy.world 30 points 2 days ago (1 children)

we don't even know if this was planted or not.

The Whitehouse is openly lying on social media, why are we expected to believe anything the federal government says at this point?

Aww, your pic didn't load on Voyager.....

Edit: it did on sync. That's the correct response

[–] unknownuserunknownlocation@kbin.earth 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I swapped it out because it wasn't working on my end, either (I think the site didn't like me linking to the picture

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Real curious about what kind of mental gymnastics the Rittenhouse defenders are doing.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 1 day ago

they would say he had a gun, or he was trying take the gun away from the "pigs" or tried to attack them.

its wonder why putin banned guns, and pacified his own citizens, its pretty much how usa resembles russia in many ways, like it or not.

Well yeah... But what's not pictured here is the bazooka the terrorist was holding. I saw it. I saw it with my own eyes. The guy drove his tank right up to those ice agents, got out with his bazooka and was gonna take em all out. It's as clear as day.

With how evil they are, and how much they want civil war, they could’ve planted it on him

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

It’s his right to be armed.
