A self-described "peacekeeper" shot three times at Gamboa. At least one of the bullets hit Gamboa in the side. Another bullet accidentally hit and killed a 39-year-old protester.
So some rookie sees a guy peacefully walking around with an AR-15 and starts blasting? Open carry is stupid, carrying an AR-15 alone at a protest is stupid. But it's still the dude's right. Maybe the "peacekeeper" was an off duty HiGhlY TraINeD cop.
It's wild to me that people yesterday were all over this guy when they thought he was some right-wing terrorist, but now that he's a leftist, his actions are suddenly OK and he's a victim.

There was literally a nationwide manhunt by federal and state law enforcement for a man who assassinated two democrats and plotted to attack the No Kings protests going on at that exact moment, and you think it's unreasonable someone attending those protests feared enough for their safety, and the safety of others around them, attempted to stop what they might have assumed was the start of a mass shooting by right-wing terrorists? He ducked into an alleyway and got a gun, and you're gonna sit there and say yeah, that's not suspicious given the threats from MAGA and Trump?
