Quoted: Why yes, yes it is. It takes assault up from a 2nd degree felony, to a first degree felony, if you assault someone while using or exhibiting a deadly weapon (firearm). Open carry of a firearm, is exhibiting, as far as I know. That's now a first degree felony level assault. 4 counts in fact, since Thing1 is being charged for all 4 of the people that. That upgrade changes penalty from "up to 1 year" to now "2 to 20 years"; per count that is. Don't know about Thing2, but I suspect that entity was also armed. Thing3 probably wasn't, and my guess is that entity will walk. Since Thing3 projects itself as a female, such statistically get much lower prosecution rates for the same crimes as committed by the privileged males, do. Thing3 probably will walk, is my guess. Thing1... I wouldn't bank on it - this ain't Austin. It's actually a functional city with a functional judicial system. Quoted: Quoted: You're right that was satisfying! I do wonder why there wasn't a harsher penalty for being armed while assaulting people? I mean isn't that normally an enhancement? Why yes, yes it is.

See PC 22.01 https://statutes.capitol.texas.gov/Docs/PE/htm/PE.22.htm Assault where one “uses or exhibits a deadly weapon during the commission of the assault” is Aggravated Assault, see PC 22.02. Aggravated Assault is a second degree felony. The Penal Code doesn’t define “exhibits”. This opinion https://www.txcourts.gov/All_Archived_Documents/ccaInformation/opinions/071699.htm#:~:text=3 finds Hence, in accordance with Patterson, a person "uses or exhibits a deadly weapon" under the aggravated robbery statute if he employs the weapon in any manner that "facilitates the associated felony." There is more at that link, it is quite interesting. They cite a US Supreme Court case. I’m not sure if this is how this is interpreted throughout Texas. |

Quoted: What the fuck is with these peoples fascination with being a "Medic"? Like it gives them them a sacred badge to go anywhere and do whatever the fuck they want as long as they say are the "Medic". That's exactly what they believe. That if they are a "medic" they should be allowed to "help" their "fallen camrade"... help them escape. It's also so they can try to get headlines in the libtard media about how "police are arresting/beating medics". The press leaves out that these people are self-appointed and not actually first responders and often actually often have no formal medical training at all. But the public are led to believe that it was like if an ambulance showed up and the police were clubbing the paramedics. The libtard media are complicit with violent and dangerous Antifa goons in this and many other ways. And they always try to portray the victims in situations like this, the actually unarmed and peaceful protesters who were sprayed by the Antifa criminals as "far right extremists". Because you know Chairman Biden and Dear Leader Obama say that "racist white supremacists" (including that "Uncle Tom" race traitor) are the "greatest threat to Democracy". |
|
Quoted: True. They also have a significant legal support network. The Maoist/Stalinists have massive monetary support from leftist billionaires like Soros and Bloomberg and the CCP. And so many prosecutors, judges and law enforcement leaders are complicit with letting off the violent offenders like Antifa while aggressively pursuing and prosecuting any perceived actions by police or peaceful conservatives who stand against them. And the mainstream liberal press is working for the Maoist/Stalinist side too. |
|
Quoted: They going to pull those pistols or just threaten unarmed peaceful protesters. Texas no have laws against brandishing? The word "brandishing" does not appear in the TPC as far as I have ever seen. You can't carry in "a manner intended to cause alarm". The general interpretation of that is don't point guns at people in a way it looks like you intend to shoot. Holstered or slung weapons while might be illegal in other states probably not a crime in Texas. However, the Antifa thugs went way beyond when they pepper sprayed people who were definitely not posing any kind of physical threat to them. That's assault. Of course the Police won't arrest for that unless it is against an officer (because they're afraid of what the media will say), and even if they did, with all the Soros bought DAs it probably wouldn't get prosecuted and even if it was, these days with the judges and courts the way that they are a conviction wouldn't necessarily be likely. |
|
Quoted: Can they choose to not prosecute assault if the people assaulted want to press charges? Yes... they can and probably will. The DA probably won't even push the charges for assaulting officers, let alone the victims in this case, because they are conservatives. |
|
Quoted: That was one of the worst injustices I've ever seen. I can't believe that guy got away with it. It still makes my blood boil. I'm glad I got out of Denver when I did, the mid-90s. It was a payback call by a leftist judge for the Rittenhouse verdict. Tit for Tat in his eyes. |

Quoted: What’s the back story, was there an all-ages drag show in Texas yesterday? How come the only citizens with rifles are Antifa? The Trannys seem to be organizing all-ages drag shows in D/FW microbreweries and using Antifa as "security." This seems to be centered around the Denton area. With North Texas Univ. and Texas Womens Univ. Denton is a hotbed for Antifa and the Gay agenda. Anti-drag show protests have generally been small but as we see here the Antifa goons are getting bolder. This has become their latest cause since there isn't much political action right now. It will be interesting to see how they respond after this. |
| The thing is with liberals is they don't believe in 2A firearms ownership. They aren't carrying because this isn't a 2A rights event. They do believe in the use of firearms exists for use against opposing forces or threats of force. Guns only exist to use to threaten. Then its self defense against the threat they come up with in their mind. They hate guns and want to ban them because they know they will use guns against their opposition in fight for "Rights". It seems they see a renewed ideal of firearms of that in that fact they want to use guns against what they believe is fascism. They truly believe they are freedom fighters against a 1940's Nazi party |

Quoted: They did their job just fine. I like how FWPD didn't let the masks and AR15's intimidate them - AT ALL. That's some stones. I say that's some real Stones; not because ANTIFA is brave - I say that because ANTIFA are cowards. Cowards are far more deadly and dangerous than brave men are. Thing1 crying for help while being lead away; when it thought its guns and intimidating attire was sufficient; tells you all you need to know. That Thing will shoot you in the back the moment you let your guard down. They (the Left) have conservatives pushing for gun rights and using rifles as visual aids to thank for that |

Quoted: Prosecution would generally be contingent on probable cause, not someone alleging a crime. And police don't prosecute, that's not their slice of the pie. Quoted: Quoted: Sure, it happens all the time. Police can be incredibly lazy. But, that doesn't seem to be the case, here.

It seems they see a renewed ideal of firearms of that in that fact they want to use guns against what they believe is fascism. They truly believe they are freedom fighters against a 1940's Nazi party And they don't realize they are working for the REAL oppressors which are the Maoist/Stalinist party which wants to replace freedom and democracy with it's own kind of one party state modeled after the old Soviet union and the CCP. To them anyone who isn't to the left politically of Chairman Mao is a fascist. And they don't understand that the only real difference between fascism and socialist/Marxist/communist regimes are the order in which the people are deprived of all rights and the rhetoric that is used to justify each oppression. Actually, for that matter, for most people fascist governments aren't as bad as far as day to day life. That's not to say good... but a least until the inevitable war starts, there tend to be less food, fuel, etc. shortages than under Soviet/Chinese modeled systems. How so many people can be working to make everyone live like it was in the Soviet Union or its puppet states before the fall of the iron curtain or like it still is in China, North Korea or even Cuba often boggles my mind. Useful idiots. Too many libtard Democrats believe what they are working for is to try to turn the US into Canada or Sweden or Denmark or something. But that's not the end game for the Maoist/Stalinist. They want to turn those countries into Societ/CCP hell too. And many of the things that the libtards love about places like Sweden are only possible because Sweden is a homogenous society with little or no racial or economic diversity. All the libtards crying about diversity here... Just don't get it. Sweden is over 80% Swedish, and 90+% "white". And it has very few poor or uneducated people. The kind of nanny society they have would simply fall apart if they had the demographics of the US. Or even Canada, which is also far less diverse than the US. So needing a 2A... its part of the US being a "melting pot". It's part of it still being as free as it is, even with all the oppression libtards have managed to get in. And in some states like CA and much of the northeast it is pretty bad, but if the population of the US was as disarmed as the libtards want it would completely fall apart quickly. Most of the left really isn't even trying to hide it anymore. Joe McCarthy was right all along. Democrats are "communists". Always were. Always will be. The mask is off. I've seen people who a few years ago used to be considered mainstream Democrats openly endorsing sending anyone they deem as "conservative" to "re-education camps". To forcibly "redistributing wealth". Banning guns is just the start. They want to ban free speech even more so than existing "hate speech" already does. They want to ban "climate deniers". Banning private ownership of vehicles so everyone is dependent on and tracked using public transit. Silencing anyone who doesn't believe in the most aggressive forms of "DEI". Banning speech of anyone who doesn't agree with normalizing pedophilia in the name of LGBTQ-whatever rights (despite that even many gays find pedophilia abhorrent and believe that drag shows which include sexual content are for adults only). And too many other non-Politically Correct things to mention. They dox, intimidate, harass, unperson and "cancel" people whenever they can already. Get people fired for their beliefs, support shutdowns and oppression of Jews and other religious groups in the name of the pandemic, etc. |

Theoe ANTIFA folks are absolutely itching for a gunfight. Why? What in the hell is the end game of this shit? Rushing unarmed protestors while packing rifles and then pepper spraying them, doing everything possible to hide your identity, this type of activity IS going to lead to people on both sides being shot. But for what purpose? I honestly can't see any reason it will help those black clad dipshits. |

Quoted: What the fuck is with these peoples fascination with being a "Medic"? Like it gives them them a sacred badge to go anywhere and do whatever the fuck they want as long as they say are the "Medic". The "medics" are actually folks that carry weapons for them. The cross makes them easy to find in the crowd. The medic in the Garret shooting emptied his handgun at Foster's car. |

| And yet they are not labeled a domestic terror threat. The gear is getting much better, training is getting better. This costs money. Law abiding folks do the same get arrested in most areas. I pray nothing happens from these clowns, but it seems they want trouble. I pray normal people like myself never get to the point of having to defend from a group like this, and have nothing left to lose. |

Anyone who has to defend themselves against them will find themselves under full fire of the Stalinist/Maoist forces in government. The police leadership, DA's and judges are mostly all bought and paid for by Soros and Bloomberg. First they'll be tried and found guilty by the leftist mainstream news media and then they'll have the book thrown at them, grand juries shopped and evidence trumped up to railroad them. All the while the Antifa criminals will be made out to be saints and freedom fighters. Gear and training is no doubt being funded down the pipeline by rich elitist leftists, if you go far enough up it points to pinko scumbags like Soros, Bloomberg and Bill Gates. |
