Before a trip to Iowa on Tuesday, Trump took questions from reporters about Pretti's killing at the hands of federal agents.
"I'm looking at that whole situation. I love everybody. I love all of our people. I love his family," Trump said of Pretti. "And it's a very sad situation."
"You know, you can't have guns," he added. "You can't walk in with guns."
"What about the Second Amendment?" a reporter shouted.
"You can't walk in with guns," Trump repeated. "You can't do that. It's very unfortunate."

When YOU put YOURSELF in the middle of a law enforcement operation while ARMED... there might be problems. Don't do that.

You got that straight. Particularly when you're dealing with ill-trained trigger-happy thugs.
I've no doubt that in the States, hundreds of armed citizens interact with police everyday without taking 10 rounds in the back.
Do you need to be taught how? Chris Rock has a short tutorial on the subject.

I neither agree with every syllable that Trump says nor do I look for ways to twist everything he says into the rantings of a lunatic. I look at results and I advocate for the rule of law. It's called common sense.
You need to turn off your phone, CNN, MSNow and The View and get a mind of your own.

Thanks to everyone for the well-wishes!
Once Trump's fully installed himself as Overlord do you honestly believe he's going to tolerate a bunch of peasants running around with firearms? Wake up!
In case you missed it:
Also, they're trained enough.
But do you not hear the constant noise the "protesters" are making? Banging on things, blowing whistles? Yelling at the top of their lungs?
The intent is to put people (in this case, law enforcement) on edge. It triggers and autonomous response within the brain that heightens one's awareness, and gets the body ready for fight or flight responses. It's not something that can be as easily controlled as trigger discipline or obeying orders, if at all.
It's intentionally creating a high-stress environment. That's the whole point.
The issue isn't the issue.
The issue is the response to the issue.
The man decided he was going to fight officers when they're already stressed out, and with the intent to cause trouble for them.
He ended up dead because of his own poor decisions, regardless of the response of the officers.
Amd now the left is using the response of the officers to further villify them.
Just as they did with Good. Just as they did with those who called out the left when Charlie Kirk was murdered.
But never with their own side, because they're the victims, in their minds, therefore anyone who further victimizes them is the enemy.

I'm starting to sense some negativity directed at yours truly.
Mark my words... America will be worse off after Trump then before Trump. But you all already know that, don't you?
I wonder why...

He or she doesn't ever say anything that isn't retarded. Therefore, he or she actually is retarded (or he or she is a space shot, not even paying attention to what comes outta his or her keyboard¹). Like that this is just a distraction for him or her. He or she is just like, "Let's just go stir the pot over at TOL lol."
That's fine lol. We have no problem with men and women like this, we all know what to do. He or she either makes an actual argument to support his or her drive-by bare assertions, or he or she gets called a retard. Or a tard. Or wot a retard Or wot a retard. Or wot a tard, etc., etc.
Bring em on, these guys are easy, and we can use them for our own distraction. Until they start putting up an argument and actually engaging in discussion on TOL, we'll call em retarded, because that is literally what they are, in public debate, discussion, and discourse.
I mean @Clete 's entirely right about this: You have to make and argument, you have to engage. You can't just say no, and NEVER make an argument. imo that's just a critic, TOL is more for builders, we're like a builders' association by analogy. Parties who come to TOL just to say "Hey I don't like what you're building" but they can't build ANYTHING themselves, are retarded.
¹ In which case we should DEFINITELY call em retarded, because he or she is not even paying attention. Might as well. TOL is a dalliance for him or her, so we'll treat them like they are a dalliance for TOL. Until they either go away, or reform and start setting out an argument to support their otherwise bare naked drive-by assertions. Until then they're all retards. This is the rule.²
² We can definitely bicker about who is and who is not retarded. That can be a whole separate discussion, right in public, right under the watching eyes of the party in question. If he or she reads what TOL is saying about him or her in public, openly, perhaps they'll be reformed, and become a former retard.
