Sniping police who are standing by watching a protest rally is not standing up to tyranny. I can see if they were coming to confiscate guns and these guys decided to fight back. In this case, I look at it as 1st degree murder.
So Tyranny is only when they infringe of the second amendment ? The constitution and the bill of rights encompasses a lot more then the 2A and i wish more gun owners would remember that, Not to mention Life, Liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Now look at what has perluded these shootings, You have the Media and the president saying that police departments across the country are oppressing black peoples rights and shooting them dead when ever they can get away with it, When they get caught the departments investigate themselves and they get away often with little more then a slap on the wrist. You have colleges and university telling them they are being held back by white people (white privilege) , You have the media saying black people are being targeted, You basically have a situation where the government, the media and the educational resources of the country are telling them that they are being held back and that the police are the tool thats making it happen.
One mans terrorist is another mans freedom fighter
Now dont get me wrong im not saying what this guy did was right, im not saying hes a hero or a martyr, That being said i can see this situation playing out more and more unless things change
