Husband of LA district attorney pulls gun on Black Lives Matter activists

More BLM shenanigans;

David Lacey, the husband of the LA county district attorney, Jackie Lacey, opened his door Monday morning and threatened demonstrators with his gun, saying, “Get off of my porch. I will shoot you … I don’t care who you are … We’re calling the police right now.”

“We were shocked,” Abdullah told the Guardian after the incident, which happened just after 5.30am local time. “We were extremely polite. We are clearly peaceful folks. She knows who we are. We’ve never engaged in any violence against her.”

While threatening people with a gun does seem a bit of an overreaction by Mr Lacey, what are these lunatics doing on the porch of someone's home at 5:30am ? Particularly when the DA position is up for re election this month. It could be a deliberate provocation I suppose.

I was going to say. Occupying the front yard of a private residence is hardly an "extremely polite" action. Especially not at 5:30 in the fucking morning!

While the activists are certainly wrong and should be in jail he's also wrong--you don't respond to protesters on your property with a gun unless there is evidence they're doing more than just being there. They're guilty of trespassing, he's guilty of brandishing a firearm.
