Karen & Brad vs. The Revolution

[quote]...this actually happened last night...

And you don't think we already discussed it??

Guy with the rifle explaining what happened:

Exhibit A

Exhibit B

They should have been doused with kerosene and set ablaze.

The couple who had the guns, not the protestors

First time I've been able to see his finger is not on the trigger. And I own that same Walther the lady is holding but I hold it properly. . She has good taste in firearms but needs more training. No way she holds it steady when she shoots.

R6 what would you do if 500 people stormed your street?

Everyone is conservative about what they know best.

R7 She's also pointing that muzzle at the crowd and has her finger near the trigger. My guess is these are his guns and she's barely, or never, shot before.

R10, I agree. That is poor trigger discipline. Maybe she is a former Minneapolis cop.

R3 R4 you missed the FIRST thread which was posted when it actually happened last night.

I personally preferred the names Pistol Patty and Dockers Dan.

It's a weird new trend. Understandable when a news event or death happens and several threads get created at roughly the same time.

But we have posters now that are creating threads for events that ***not only already have threads, but that are a few days old***, because it's apparently beyond their meager capabilities to search first.

People are so desperately trying to find a "counterpart" to "Karen". I think "her dear husband" suffices imo.

It’s definitely Brad. I have not heard another suggestion that even really qualifies.

Surprisingly, they are both registered as Democrats:

R15 Agreed, Brads are old and frumpy and wear chino shorts. The only image I get from Ken is a Ken doll, which that man sure as hell isn't.

R11 Oh, the wry and biting wit on you! So topical!

THUGS!

What were they were afraid they were going to steal some of their tacky ass shit their house.

Nope, not Democrats.

[quote] While some on social media have claimed the McCloskeys are registered Democrats, it was not immediately possible to determine whether the couple are actually registered as Democrats or if they are registered Republicans. But Federal Election Commission records show Mark McCloskey has contributed thousands of dollars to the Trump Make America Great Again Committee, the Republican National Committee and Donald J. Trump for President Inc. He also made contributions to a Republican congressional candidate, Bill Phelps, in 1996, and to the Bush-Quayle campaign in 1992.

[quote] Patricia McCloskey also made a contribution to the RNC in 2018 and to a Republican Senate dinner in 1988.

ANYONE who, for even two seconds, thought these assholes voted for Democrats, is a fucking moron.

They've sunk a fortune into restoring that house. I can see why they'd kill to protect it.

That house looks like a place where the hodgepodge of tacky Ethan Allen knockoffs came to die. They should've killed themselves.

This is a watershed moment that marks a dangerous political shift. Regular people are brandishing arms at protestors who are trespassing on their property. The photos alone look fake, they look like stills from The Purge.

Hence 50-bajillion threads.

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

That is not a good name (it is mine ffs and I'm nothing like those losers, my gun is purely for love)

That's why guns are a bad idea. In the hands of a person with a short fuse, it could lead to many years in prison.

Behold, the Master Race!

It certainly doesn't paint a pretty picture, especially when sympathy for rich white Americans isn't popular. However, I know a "grande dame" of St.Louis who grew up in one of those old homes in Westmoreland Pl.

During a visit, I had asked if she had been by her old place, just out of curiosity...Later in the 80s, her family moved to Frontenac, or unincorporated Ladue... She remarked that no one drives down these streets if they do not live there. Sure enough, signs ARE clearly posted. (There's an awful lot of money in St. Louis, and many claim much more than Chicago. Who really knows what these people felt they needed to protect?

I think it's quite obvious that certain protesters targeted this street to provoke rich people. There are many layers to this story. On another thread, I love how some posters point up these "peaceful" protesters had no respect for Art & Architecture, or private property more generally speaking. (After demolishing the wrought iron gate)

There exists a major high street adjacent to these "estates".... more visibility and coverage would been given if peaceful political protesting was their raison d'être.

In that interview with the tv reporter that r2 linked to, he admits that his wife doesn't know anything about guns. Just below that, is a slideshow of photos, the clearest I've seen, that show her finger was INSIDE the trigger guard.

How much finger pressure do you need to fire a gun?

[quote] How much finger pressure do you need to fire a gun?

Less than you need to break down an iron gate.

For the role of Brad for the Lifetime movie.

So "Ken" and "Karen" have been outed.

And the inevitable internet response has pretty much shut down their "law firm."

Tomorrow, there will be a tearful apology. "We're not really like that."

Uh-huh.

If you're not really like that, then why were you behaving like that?

For Karen
