...Well.


I can't believe I'm gonna say this, but that's some biased ass reporting:

1. The dude who was being intimidated by the shot was not, "using an improvised torch". He was using an aerosol can as a flamethrower to keep the nazis back. There's pictures of the incident from different angles showing as much.

2. We already knew the cops had basically been told to stand down for bullshit reasons, but that also applied to mr flamethrower.

3. Where exactly WERE the cops? Like I'm all for calling them out for doing nothing, but where were they? If they were only in the high vis and not on the otherside they wouldn't have had LOS on the idiot cowboy.

4. Is what he did actually illegal? This is something I've got no idea on but we've got some scholarly folk here, he clearly shot without intending to harm, but is just the act of shooting illegal? I'd like it to be, but you guys have some fucked up laws.
