while I cant speak for anyone else I will say this. At 170lbs and valuing my life more than any 300lb thug I would beyond a doubt keep shooting until he stopped dead in his tracks. Given that they came at me with intent to cause me harm.
No I would not wait between shots to see if one worked…..duh.

I’m with you – DOW 1.8 million by 2020
Gold back to $500
These are the days when I pull for China to back their currency with gold, silver, oil or whatever, and for Putin to do the same. The criminal banksters of the west need to be put down – for good.
So far, with the “new and improved” silver fix, silver is down 3 days in a row and roughly 2.5%. Thanks to the CME and Reuters protecting the banksters. Who owns Reuters? The Rothschilds of course.
This is no longer the US that I used to live in. We are disgusting.
BTW – oil has been crushed for the last two weeks and gasoline here hasn’t gone down so much as a penny. What a joke we are.

for stealing candy bars is a harsh sentence. Isn’t this the same police state mentality that everyone keeps railing against?

Even though he will deny it, he never saw the 2 crashes coming—back in 2000 he was saying the dow was gonna melt up to some high number….it never happened

Wonder how much publicity there would have been, had the cop been a black man, or if the kid was white.

I am looking across so many charts that are breaking out it’s crazy. The S&P is on the verge of melting up.
This would be a fitting end. A moonshot followed by an unbelievable collapse over a course of many years.

I figured it was the same….Maths says it can’t continue, takeing more out than goes in etc……….The Fed and the other CB’s have to prove that wrong……That is the fight we have and PM suppression is part of it.

That’s how it works here in the US too. Work a gov’t job, get paid double plus the best benefits in the country. Especially if you work a federal job.
Same everywhere, that’s why when the riots begin it will be gov’t employees protesting how the banksters stole their pensions. The rest of us can just eat crap.

The Dow ran from the 44.7 in ’32 to 11497.12 in ’99 in a Super wave….if the next Super wave equals that multiple ie 257.20 times, then with the low being 7062.93 in 2009 that gives us the 1.8 Million plus target.
It’s time theTent put CNBS in the shade…they ain’t bulls their barely bullocks. YEEEEEEHHAAAAAAAAAAAAA !!!!!!!!

All I would say is no matter the rights and wrongs, what is very apparent in my country is that ALL public officials think we work for them and that they have a God given right enjoy a very lazy but wealthy lifestyle paid for by taxpayers.

Someone bought 8,000 OCT 30 calls for 12 cents.
Looks like they financed the trade by selling 3,000 OCT 25 puts for 32 cents.

For sure we don’t know the whole story. If things happened as you heard, then the officer may have been in fear for his life, but he still had options. Perhaps he thought he didn’t, I don’t know.
I don’t think what happened in Ferguson with Brown is the best example of police brutality. I think what happened in NY city and in Wanka’s home of Key West are better examples of police overstepping their bounds, but the trend appears to be one of police militarization to me. Some maybe justified and some not.
I stand by my statement that if it were a white kid, circumstances would be different. I blame Obama the race baiter for that. JMHO.

For those who don’t know, I live in St. Louis. I have been following this from the beginning and as you can guess, we are inundated with news. I have been refraining from comment until more information and better evidence surfaced. It has been coming out in bits and pieces from a variety of sources. There is still much to know, but from everything I have been able to piece together, Samb’s post at 11:31 is very close to the mark as to how I would try to summarize what I believe happened. I don’t want to say much more at this point because there are important facts still being gathered and have not been officially released. But please believe me, fellow oasis-ers, what you are getting from the major news media sources is a far cry from what I believe we will come to accept when we get to the bottom of it (If that is possible; it is an unbelievably f–ed up situation).
For those who would like a blow-by-blow discussion not found in the newspapers and on TV, let me suggest my other favorite forum: sigforum.com It is nominally a gun forum, but like the tent/oasis, it is composed of a large and diverse group of interesting people, and features discussions on a very wide range of topics. If you go to the forum, enter and find “The Lounge”. It is the first “room” at the top of the page. In there you will find a long discussion of the events in Ferguson (St. Louis members … stay the H out of the north county/city area!!!) The thread was started by a St. Louis County police officer who has been at the scene almost every night.
EDIT: If you go to sigforum, you will have to wade through the flip comments to get to the thoughtful ones; be advised.

re Saville Tks
The Fed doesn’t care, they think they have it all under control by “forcing” the mkts to do as they wish and so far they are right. Gods knows what will happen when it stops working, it will be utter chaos.
But his article does show how far Mkts/prices are away from reality.

That happened to my truck when I lived in Ohio–very annoying business. What worked for me after repairing the wiring was to shove bars of Irish Spring soap into every nook and cranny under the hood. They hate that smell and left my truck alone after that.
