ConesForBreakfastDamn. Do yall think this was really self defense or actually murder like police say?
elliotfitzgeraldI got mixed feelings about this. I know it's America, but if you're going to murder someone and claim it was self defense, I wouldn't recommend shooting them with a semi-auto? Regardless, if he's innocent and it really was self defense, I really hope he isn't found guilty.
skithemidwestttMost firearms are Semi-auto. What you are referring to is the AR-15.
Murder is murder regardless if they use an AK or a screwdriver.
elliotfitzgeraldMy point is that if you murder someone and claim it's self defense, your chances of being charged with murder increase exponentially if you use a weapon made for killing. If he's innocent, that's another thing. If he's guilty, he could've used a lightweight handgun.

DIRTYBUBBLEIt really has nothing to do with the weapon. The legal parameters for self-defense are actually fairly slim regardless of what weapons are used, even if you are completely unarmed.

pinkcamo1000how did he even have access to a firearm if he was hospitalized for mental health stuff?

collin.zecherI wonder how junkies get heroin with it being illegal and all.... and we didn’t have to register firearms in Vermont until like two years ago... lots of places are the same... try to take something that doesn’t exist or something that I had before mental problems. That’s why guns laws don’t always work
pinkcamo1000I'm just more confused now lol
collin.zechersorry. Lemme break it down a little more and try to explain, I totally think he shouldn’t of had it but there are tons of legal reasons he had it.
You don’t know when he got the gun... could of been before mental health problem.... the red flag laws (the cops taking your guns because of mental health or violence) only work if your weapons are registered. If they aren’t registered no one knows you own the guns. A lot of states didn’t require registration until the last five years or unless you purchased the gun from a ffl dealer at a gun shop.
so what I’m saying is that he could of owned an unregistered gun which is not illegal in a lot of states, the red flag laws also may not of been enacted when he had problems before, or many other reason he had the gun from a totally legit stand point should he of had it, probably not, but that’s the fine line we walk... do you wanna be a nark for turning in your boy cause he’s dangerous to himself or just leave it be and try not to worry about it

BiffbarfMy dick's a weapon cuz I straight up murder the pussy haha
Someone date me please
blazeonyiaEveryone please set aside your preconceived notions on guilt and innocence and look at the larger issues here:
Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA)?? Have any of you ever dealt with Indian Reservation cops? They will bury it immediately unless the crime in question deals with a white person. Also these people are not exactly the FBI.. Just saying, don't throw away a pow legend because he shot a possible meth addict.

CaseyProbably not a lot of firearm confiscation going on in bear country rural Alaska no matter how crazy you are.
DolanReloadedSwitzerland is even more gun crazy than the us, and their murder rate per capita is orders of magnitude less than the rate in the us. America has alot of mental illness because of the migrators mindset. People who chose to uproot from europe and sail to america probably have tangeable genetic differences from europeans who stayed put.
mental health needs more attention.

IgorzmumNot true... I will say this. I’ve been knowing Dean since he first came to Alaska in 1991, I helped him with some small matters when he was setting up his company. We were both business owners here in Valdez and I can only say that some of the things he speaks to in his YouTube channel are true because they have happened and are happening to me right now. The last time Dean and I spoke face to face he had his son with him and they were out filling pot holes for local businesses who had hired him to do so. I was cleaning up at the end of our property. He was not only fine at the time but thriving, we have been speaking by phone at least 1-3 times a week when he left Alaska and a couple of days before this incident, I’ve been concerned for his safety as he has been for mine. There is something happening here and it’s not good, that I can attest to, because I to have been poisoned and have had other things happen to me and I’m not mentally ill. I pray for Dean and hope that the truth in this matter will come to light, I pray for his family as this must be horrific for his children. I would hope that people let this go the course before passing judgement on my friend because I believe that he’d afford me the same.

CaseyI dunno sarge, he had a gun designed to kill someone for self defense- seems awfully suspicious
