Gang’s Takeover of Apartment Complex is Why People Need ‘Assault Weapons’<\/a><\/p>\n

When people ask why we need so-called assault weapons, most of us default to point out that we don’t have to illustrate a need to exercise our rights. That is completely true and I’m one of those who has said it time and time again. We don’t, nor should we. If we’re required to show a need, then it’s not a right in the first place. That was the core issue at the heart of the Bruen case, really. The state demanded someone show a need and the Supreme Court said you can’t do that.<\/p>\n

That extrapolates out to things like AR-15s.<\/p>\n

But from time to time, we also see a situation where it makes it very clear that yes, there is a need for such firearms.<\/p>\n

In this case, we’re going to talk about an armed gang\u00a0taking over an apartment complex<\/a>\u00a0in Aurora, Colorado.<\/p>\n

New video has surfaced showing alleged gang violence at an apartment complex home to some migrants in Aurora.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The video shows the group entering an apartment building with several weapons and then making their way through a door. The scenario took place at\u00a0The Edge at Lowry apartments<\/a>, which became a reported crime hotspot in that city.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

In the video, men can be seen walking up a stairwell carrying weapons. They can be heard speaking Spanish.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The owners of the video said it was taken shortly before a\u00a0shootout at the complex<\/a>\u00a0that left one person seriously injured. Several vehicles were also damaged by gunfire.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

All of the people appear to be carrying rifles and handguns, except for one of the men who can be seen talking on a cell phone. They all then gather around a door and go in.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Another video clip shows what appears to be two men forcing a\u00a0door open. But what or who they were searching for is not clear.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The video was shot in the building where Cindy and Edward Romero lived until Wednesday. FOX31 caught up with them as they loaded up their stuff and moved out.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been a nightmare and I can\u2019t wait to get out of here,\u201d former resident Cindy Romero said.<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The gang appears to be made up of Venezuelan “immigrants” who have taken to terrorizing the residents of this complex, which houses a lot of other immigrants. There’s no mention of whether they’re legal or not, though I think we all know what the gang’s status actually is.<\/p>\n

Yet there are also a lot of Americans there who are being terrorized by this gang.<\/p>\n

While this appears to be a complex where people aren’t exactly flush with cash, the truth of the matter is that Americans have a right to keep and bear arms and our financial status is irrelevant. These people have a right to defend themselves, and with the numbers of bad guys we’re seeing here, and the level of armament–all of which is likely illegally obtained–if these bad guys decide to get even rowdier than they already are, it’s not likely to be a good thing to be relegated to defending yourself with a 10-round magazine, much less a bolt-action rifle and revolver like some people want to relegate us to.<\/p>\n

For all the vilification of so-called assault weapons we see in the media, they do fill a niche in a self-defense strategy. It might not necessarily be ideal for a lot of circumstances, but when it is ideal, nothing else will do the job nearly as well.<\/p>\n

An armed gang taking over and terrorizing your apartment complex sure looks like one of those jobs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
