Only Republicans would look at a man who was murdered by the state for legally carrying a firearm and say it was a good thing and he deserved it.

@mushroom_soup I thought he drew the weapon. That's why I can clearly see him drop it in the video. Doesn't that change the whole thing from a constitutional crisis to a simple gunfight a delusional guy started against all hope?

@ACL9000 The timeline looks like: Agents tackle him, he resists, agent manages to grab his gun, as agent is carrying the gun away it discharges into the ground. The sound of it seems to set off the agent who pumped nine or ten rounds into the the guy. This is a developing story as better video could emerge, particularly body cam footage.

@judgedread @ACL9000 It looks like an Sig P320 that is known for discharging without the trigger being pulled. He should have invested in Glock and stayed home with it. Carrying a gun to a protest and getting your pilot light blown out for illegals is pretty dumb.
