(I want to make it clear that it's not OK to threaten someone for filming no matter what they are wearing. Definitely did not mean to imply otherwise. I just wanted to make it real clear that in no way did I appear threatening)

Wow I am getting a lot of pushback on my trigger discipline comment You're all correct: his finger is not literally resting on the trigger. His discipline could be much worse It could also, in my personal opinion, be better. Like, not resting directly over the guard

It is my personal belief that if you're gonna carry a goddamn AR-15 in a tense urban environment full of civilians you should make it very clear to everyone that your finger is away from the trigger It should rest either above the guard or, optimally, not be extended at all

What does my delicate feminine brain know about trigger discipline? I deployed twice to Afghanistan with the 82nd AIrborne Division and while I did not see combat I definitely know my way around a fucking M-4 thanks

Thanks for the excellent journalism work you're doing. What's a "CHUD"?

The term CHUD means this person has no journalist integrity, deciding instead to be a partisan hack.

Is fascist scum better? By the way, I think she has more integrity than most highly-paid journalists. And she's brave, not letting herself be intimidated by the chud who has to carry a big gun to fool himself into thinking he's a "big man" instead of a coward.

That is still partisan journalism, so no. That isn’t any better. A journalist should never insert themselves into the story. That includes using charged partisan language.
