Not baiting. Just replying. I donât believe you are baiting me either. A different point of view is not âbaitingâ. Also not every person that doesnât think a victim should be constantly trashed for 2 yrs is a âgroupieâ or related to this case or the people directly involved with it. There has been plenty of bestowing honor, praise and admiration of MB here. I didnât specify for his actions of shooting someone, maybe some here justifying his actions yes, but hopefully not glorifying.
Agree to disagree.
Had I been Barisone I would have rounded up my friends, marched INTO MY home, taken all her belongings and put them on the curbâŠwith a locksmith on hand to immediately change all the locks on the property. As far as her horses, I would have provided her with notice that she had 24 hours to permanently remove them lock stock and barrel. I also would have hired armed security to protect me and my property 24/7. Period.
But that is not what he did. Allegedly he took a gun with him alone to force these people off his property. What occurred after he arrived is up for debate and has been for over 2 years.
Do I glorify Barisone, NO! Do I believe he was pushed to an extreme limit, absolutely. Do I believe this was a power grab for LK that backfired horribly, absolutely. Thatâs my story and Iâm sticking to it.

I think weâre reading two different threads. I havenât seen âplentyâ of âbestowing honorâ praise or admiration. Quite odd that youâve taken things that way. Yeah, thereâs the odd poster thatâs a bit too invested or isnât willing to blame Barisone at the moment (waiting for the trial), but bestowing honor? Come on now. I mustâve missed the praise too. Can you point me in the general direction?
I donât understand your last sentence exactly. You just said people are bestowing honor, admiring and praising, but you hope theyâre not glorifying? I donât think anyone is? But you just stated people are indeed doing the other 3 things. You essentially accused people of glorifying then said you hope they are not. Is that the point? I mean, I agree/hope no one is glorifying. Also, explanation does not equal justification.
Sorry it wasnât clear. The three words I used were directly from the definition of glorifying (I was told to look it up).
I then was pointing out that while I was speaking of people glorifying the man, would hope that would stop at his action of shooting someone. Some people have been justifying his shooting LK, continue to speak highly of and be sympathetic to him, but not seeing anyone âglorifyingâ the shooting. Except maybe SW.
âEdited to remove a sentence with a word that some people found offensive (while others might think it is a nice word.) However, happy to apologize, no offense intended.â
I believe you have confused my (I assume) posts as gushing over Barisone, when in reality they are expressing intense dislike over Kanarek and her buddyâs behavior over the years.
I think the normal person is overwhelmed dealing with malice on this scale.
You try to appeal to the decent side and get blindsided by itâs absence. I am not sure if calling in the cavalry would have crossed my mind. I fight my own battles. It would ahve been a better approach though.
How much of this is utter desperation.
(hindsight being 20/20âŠhow much presence of mind does one have, in the face of this?)
I mean, if peope had the presence of mind, most of those unfortunate events would not happen.
And apparently MB could not trust the local law enforcement to do their job, did he have knowledge of an armed security system? I donât think they are in the phonebookâŠ
