A University of South Carolina student was shot and killed as he apparently tried to enter the wrong home on his off-campus street early on Saturday, police said.

Nicholas Anthony Donofrio, 20, of Connecticut, was dead by the time police responded to reports of a home burglary and shooting, according to a Columbia Police Department news release. Officers found his body on a front porch around 2 a.m., and Donofrio had a gunshot wound to his upper body, the release said.

    Oh well taking a page out of your book, I don’t care about you and your family either, so I’ll just take your guns away for the safety of mine.

        So what are your plans if you’re wrong?

        Are you going to surrender your guns because you didn’t actually need them like you claimed?

        Will you submit to more thorough training, background and health checks as part of obtaining a firearm license, like you could have done 5000 mass shootings ago?

        Will you become an illegal gun owner, like all the criminals you imagined gunning down in your hero fantasies?

        Or will you go full terrorist, firing on the law enforcrment and going out in a hail of bullets, sacrificing yourself for your country like all the gun owners promised they would, even though they wouldn’t even wear a mask protect their countrymen?

            Of course I wouldn’t go full terrorist. I’m not a liberal.

            Aww, what happened to Captain Facts-Over-Feelings? We know what the history and political views of the vast majority of domestic terrorists are – far-right men who beat their partners.

            Which makes it surprising there’s not more John Snowlings. I guess when you’re a cop, there’s plenty of “body cam malfunctions” to work with.

                The Capitol riots on Jan 6 don’t ring any bells?

                Protesting isn’t rioting by the way. The majority (not all, but most) of the BLM protests were non-violent until police (acab) escalated the situations by attacking unprovoked.

                    So when the right riots and invades a government building it’s not a riot, but when protesters are attacked by police and turn violent it is?

                It’s why we need the second amendment. The left like to riot while the rest of us want to live our lives without the hassle.

                There you go! Mask off at last! “We need the second amendment to kill leftists”.

                Do you want to share with the class which “riots” you’re talking about specifically? Apparently, you’ve got 50 years worth.

                Or should we just connect the very obvious dots ourselves? You’re an ex-cop, still seething about the BLM protests that put Derek Chauvin in jail, just for openly murdering a minority on camera.

                And in a not very shocking plot twist, you’re a staunch supporter of gun laws that routinely arm far-right shooters who fire into crowds of black people with their legal weapons.
