I hope someone will rally in front of their home every weekend from now on. If I live in St Louis, I’d be there for sure.

I feel like American gun control as it is now would actually be effective if the cops stopepd giving the white criminals their guns back, or in some cases actually take them away when the law says they should.

You can put whatever law you want on the books, but if the PDs aren’t going to enforce it the way they haven’t been enforcing what we already have, its not gonna do shit. They’ll definitely enforce it on some types of people though.

Police just arrest and kill people, they aren’t even required by law to protect people. Prosecutors and the judicial system enforce the law, or in this case, just ignore the laws for the well connected.

Weirdly enough the police opposed the expungements here. These idiots have managed to unite everyone against them

Their records might be expunged, but their photos and what they did well never be.

No criminal record, sure, tarnished reputation amongst the left leaning side of the internet will remain

What an odd comment. Literally no one but that MAGA couple cares if they get their exact same guns returned, this is about having their privilege to own firearms restored after pointing guns at peaceful protestors.
