Were the Porepunkah shootings an act of self-defense?

Post by BLueRibbon »

On August 26th, officers from Victoria Police's sexual offenses and child abuse investigation team showed up on the property of Dezi Freeman, a self-professed 'sovereign citizen'. They had come to serve a warrant in relation to alleged sexual offenses involving a minor. Freeman, who had a long history of confrontations with police and other authorities, refused to grant access or surrender himself. After a tense standoff, he shot at the officers, killing two and injuring another. Much of the mainstream media focus has been on Freeman's unorthodox takes on issues such as civil liberties, the role of the police, and Covid-19 conspiracies. However, as always, I will be pursuing a very different angle in this short article. I don't maintain my website to make friends, so buckle up for some unapologetically offensive opinions that will be sure to upset pretty much everyone.
