Gun Rights Discussion

[VTA]

Here's a scenario for you to consider.

What if you're a parent and your teenage daughter/s and maybe her friends are sitting out back at the pool in bikinis, and you spot a drone hovering over the backyard for an extended period of time. Likely to happen? Maybe not, but there are sick people all over the place.

I think if something like that happened to me (granted, I don't have any daughters) I'd be awfully tempted to shoot it down and I wouldn't give two shits if the owner of it complained.

I'm pretty sure I'd read that something like this has happened. Maybe an urban legend, maybe not but I remember reading such a story.

I have to believe it's definitely happened, these sick perverted peeping toms have been around forever. You'd have to think some of them have decided that using a drone's high powered camera is a good idea for them. Bathroom and bedroom windows are probably targets as well.

HELL YEAH!!!!

HELL YEAH!!!!

This is sad. Such a waste of life. I don't blame the dad for shooting, but what was this kid thinking? In my state the Dad would be charged with a serious crime. If the kid died, the charge would be murder, even though we have the Castle Doctrine. In NJ, there needs to be an imminent threat of harm AFTER retreat. Nowhere in the country is self-defense defined like this, not even in NJ, but this is the standard liberal DAs use in our state. It is absurd.

If a gun had been used it would have been much worse. /s

I find myself avoiding people and incidents like this the older I get. I've come to understand that some people are just assholes. Having said that, I don't know who's completely at fault here but I don't think the guy should have been shot. People need to stay out of these situations.

I read that his charges were later dropped.

Yeah four shots point blank and only hit the dude in the arm and wounded the bystander, he needs training or leave the gat at home.

where do you get these videos and why dont they every have any context and back story?

Here's the scoop:

Dash cam video shows moments truck crashes into Trotwood police cruiser​

February 15, 2024 at 4:13 pm EST
TROTWOOD — Newly-released video shows the moment a high-speed chase ended in a crash and shooting on US 35.

The crash ended with 54-year-old James Skirvin crushing a sheriff’s department cruiser and then ending on top of a Trotwood police cruiser with an officer inside.

“I think it’s horrible, that he did it on purpose,” said Carolyn White, who lives two homes from the crash site.

White said she and her neighbors walked toward the crash but realized there were dozens of officers everywhere.

Investigators have confirmed that more than a half dozen deputies and officers opened fire toward Skirvin. That part is redacted from the video News Center 7 requested and received.

However, the video shows a number of things new things.

It shows officers pulling into the mobile home community where 911 callers told them Skirvin hit his own daughter. Skirvin is seen leaving the mobile home, driving right past them.

Officers said Skirvin pointed a gun at them.

News Center 7 was the only station to obtain video that showed Skirvin walking out of a home with two guns. The chase went from Trotwood back toward US 35, and several times Skirvin purposely drove on the wrong side of the road.

He then went onto US 35 East toward Dayton where an officer threw stop sticks to deflate a tire.

Skirvin performed a U-turn at 35 and Abbey Avenue to head back westbound. Pieces of his tire would come loose, flipping into the officer’s windshield.

Skirvin again increased speed as his tire and rim began to smoke, leading to his apparent deliberate turn into officers blocking the intersection to keep other drivers safe.

“One thing it’s an accident, the other if it’s purposely, that’s really not good,” White said.

Skirvin is so far only charged for his alleged assault on his daughter. He is being held under 24/7 guard at the hospital.

Ohio BCI is handling the rest of the case and it’s expected he will eventually face many more charges.
