As demonstrators clashed near a downtown park here two weeks ago, a white nationalist protester in a bulletproof vest turned, pointed a pistol toward the crowd and fired a single shot at the ground, in the direction of a black man wielding an improvised torch. --- kin to all that throbs ...

He fired a warning shot at a guy with a flamethrower. Still pretty reckless given the crowd, but to present this without that context gives an inaccurate impression of what happened.

Do you have a source better than the guy brandishing the flamethrower? Because obviously he's going to recount the order of events in a way that makes him look better. He says the gun was fired at the ground first, but in the video posted first in this topic, the gun clearly wasn't pointed or fired until after he started spouting flames at the white supremacist crowd. Until you have some video of the moments before that include a prior gun shot, Corey Long's account is false. Also, pointing out that he did something wrong too isn't downplaying the other guy discharging a firearm in a threatening manner. Fuck off with that bullshit. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

He just wanted to play hero. Same with the flamethrower guy. Except the guy with the gun probably at least had more training with the weapon, and it's also a more reliable device in general. That homemade flamethrower? What if the guy messes up and blows it all up? He could accidentally kill himself and others. At least with the gun, it was manufactured and tested in a factory with actual safety standards. They were both reckless, but don't pretend like the flamethrower guy isn't being just as dangerous if not even more dangerous than the guy with the gun. --- I may not go down in history, but I will go down on your sister. ...

I am fine with the consensus that they were both equally dangerous by using weapons in a crowd like this. What I don't agree with is giving the flamethrower guy a pass of some sort, that was most definitely as potentially dangerous as what the gun guy did. --- I may not go down in history, but I will go down on your sister. ...

Actually I do think it would be relevant in a court case, like the guy's defense attorney could use it as mitigating factors to get a charged reduced from say attempted murder down to something far less serious via the self defense argument.
