re: #198 Dark_Falcon

There’s nothing to support here is the thing. This shooting is unjustifiable on its face, not the least because Reeves left the theater and then came back, negating claims of self-defense. Moreover, Reeves helped establish Tampa’s Tactical Response Team, which means he knew how to handle someone taking a swing at him without shooting (though by all accounts Chad Oulson took no aggressive action). Last and not least, there are several witnesses to the shooting, including the victims wife, who was hit in the arm by the bullet that killed her husband.

The NRA is not going to support Curtis Reeves Jr. They would only be hurting themselves if they attempted to defend his actions.

They won’t support the man himself, more than likely, but they will support the right of a retired 71 yr old man to CC and put others at risk.
