Court documents show Ruth was previously charged with stalking, trespassing, and prowling at night, but had no felony convictions.
Prime example of how current gun laws do absolutely nothing to protect us.
Even in my state of WA with some of the most restricted gun laws in the nation a person convicted of violent crimes can still get a hold of a firearm.
That's the fun thing about charging someone with a crime. The accused hasn't been proven guilty yet.
In this case, they were there to arrest him for stalking. Which may or may not have resulted in a felony, barring him from gun ownership.
A rational observation.
I too, wish we could ascertain who was going to snap and do bad things before they have to do something crazy enough to be lawfully convicted, but there's gotta be a process.
I'm pretty sure they're clueless. "Restricted gun laws"? What does that even mean?
And an AR-14, which nobody needs. Unless we're all going to use them to overthrow the gestapo like the 2nd amendment intended.
Sounds like a nice guy.
Given the current state of things, I don't feel sorry and angry in the same way I did when a similar ambush was staged here in Australia a few months back.
I hate feeling like this. But I have no fucks to give about American cops anymore
It's like the Charlie Kirk thing; great news, but don't laude the killer because he's a shitbag (because decent people don't generally kill people)
I have no fucks to give about American cops anymore
They were there to arrest a guy for stalking. I have no clue what to say to you that you have no sympathy for people getting murdered while enforcing stalking laws.
Who cares. The cops also stalk homeless people and no one seems to have a problem with that since it's legal. No sympathy for class traitors
You're not going to convince me to change my whole view on pigs just because of the isolated actions of a few good apples.
And BTW, for every 100 serious sexual assaults reported to the police, 3 people will go to jail. And the clearance rate for murder is ~50% nationwide. So forgive me if I don't feel safe and secure under the protection of pigs.
Murder is not OK. One shouldn't need their views modified to align on this topic.....
Fuck cops
5 bucks on who gets the call when ACAB absolutists are faced with someone breaking laws against them.
Side note: Becker, Baker, and Barker look like one person.
