Nothing in the article about whether or not he was carrying a legal firearm. Whether or not he was able to legally own a firearm. If he has an illegal weapon or was not legally able to own a firearm.

Re: Racist/Corrupt/Immoral Police Thread.

A judge has always decided bail. Laws that take away cash bail remove discretion from the judge. We disagree on the widespread corruption you seem to believe exist in law enforcement. Bail is there to protect the public from repeat offenders. Releasing repeat offenders out on the street just create...

Re: Racist/Corrupt/Immoral Police Thread.

Or it could mean they are habitual criminals. Not every cop is corrupt. Not every police department is corrupt. So are we going to do away with bail and release everyone back into society no matter the charge and no matter what their arrest record might be? Do you think that will reduce crime or ju...

Re: Racist/Corrupt/Immoral Police Thread.

Didn’t say they were guilty. I said they were habitual criminals with multiple arrests. There is a difference. I don’t expect you to get it? Is bail unconstitutional in your view? Sounds like you see no reason for bail. Release everybody until after trial? Is that your proposal? If not, then exactl...

All this is happening when Netanyahu is in office. The US government plays a peripheral role at best. The US government didn't wall off Gaza and let it turn into a terrorist base. "Battle lines being drawn, nobody's right if everybody's wrong" -- Some forgotten 60s band that actually play...

Nice in theory but I can’t remember a time in history where it has worked. I don’t think being strong and ready and willing to defend oneself means you can’t also he honest and compassionate.
