Could get sporty in Omaha with this news.

Video looked like he got attacked by a group of rioters and fired back.

This??
Omaha Police identify protester shot in Old Market Saturday |
|
Multiple accounts of him exiting his bar an instigating the crowd.
Would be interesting to see what evidence or lack thereof they have to not charge him, if rumors do prove true. |

Few years ago, this guy and some of his buddies shot back when they were getting attacked, and ended up getting the book thrown at them.

I'm hearing the national guard is surrounding the courthouse ahead of an announcement. Glad I don't live in an urban areas.

When I was that age I was working on a farm so I could buy my own clothes and put gas in my beat up car.
WTF do these young people do for money since all they do is demonstrate and riot? Oh - yeah, that was a dumb question... |

Neat. Seems like it's going to be a fun night.
Guess who gets to drive around downtown Omaha until 6, and who's sitting less than 12 blocks from where that happened? |

The guy that did the shooting is a former Marine and owns the bar where the shooting occurred. He was a vocal libertarian online then loud Trump supporter, which put him on the shit list of a lot of youth in the area. From what I've read online, he was at the bar with another older guy on lookout, someone was trying to pry open the door, he approached the person and at some point pulled a pistol out. Other protestors were saying the shooter and older guy were both saying racial things to the crowd (N word), which looked like a mix of Black, Hispanic, and some Caucasian.
In the video, the shooter is on the edge of the sidewalk in front of his bar, backing away with his left palm out and up in what looked like a diffusing manor, but must have had the gun out in his right hand. Four guys tackled him pushing him into the street and he fired twice. If what led up to the incident is true, sounds like a 'when assholes collide' situation. He shouldn't have been antagonizing. But, onlookers were yelling, "It's not worth it, he's got a gun!" as the group pursued him, so they knew what they were messing with. Based strictly on the video I saw, looked like he was backing away in a diffusing posture when he was jumped by four males. That short video might have saved his ass. |

View Quote Lol! Those “accounts” should show us the video. Not one of those mindless terrorists goes anywhere without their phone! |

Is this the pawn shop guy?
And I really hope they are on the right side with this one. |

It was already covered above about what witnesses have been posting online by another member. Again, waiting to see what other evidence they have to make a decision. If he doesn't get charged, it will get ugly in Omaha. Regardless if he was justified or not. Mob mentality and all. |

Currently nobody outside city hall except the press.
I did see some national guard driving around. |

Video shows the bar owner being physically attacked. Bar owner is on ground being attacked.

So far looks justified from what I saw. He went to defend his father, backed up, and then was attacked (Twice).
Either way... It's going to pop off really soon. Sad. |
|
Fuuuuuck. Based on the videos the attorney just showed, that was textbook self defense. This is not going to go over well.

A business is not work dying over. That is what insurance is for. It appears he had to use deadly force to protect himself and that is what you have to do in that situation. I don’t see the point of being out there in the mix.
No doubt the media will twist this and make him out to be a racist. |

Well. Thankfully my company decided it's going to get exciting around my area and have decided to suspend all operations in the downtown area.
I know it's going to get fun around here because police have been blocking off roads and access to the downtown area for the last hour or so. |

View Quote What led to the incident was looters going to his property and trying to pry the door open. How in the fuck is that "when assholes collide"? They went to his property and tried to damage and loot. He used mean words. Yeah, seems like both sides are at fault. |
