Gun Confiscations Underway

[itsrequired]

Well put and an accurate summation of the situation.

As I alluded to earlier, they (husband and wife) were getting some pressure from friends and acquaintances to "go to the papers" and, in fact, still are, to some extent. It looks like, for now, they are going to keep the matter private (meaning of course that those friends and family that they shared with must do the same), but with an open mind to making it public if similar incidents are learned of.

How easily wrapped up it is for you. I hope the lemmings believe that you want to keep this matter private for your friends, but published the information on a forum for all to see. Of course, you were only doing this so your friends on the forum could see it, lol the rest of us just happened along. Makes perfect sense!

You really should seek help.

I don't know about you, but I tend to shy away from pathological behavior in front of friends and coworkers that I know will read my forum posts. Just sayin'....


So again, this thread is not for you. It never was for you. Sorry.

I am sure that your friends are very happy that you have not indiscriminately published their personal information. I would hate to have people know where I lived and that I had firearms in my home. Some people, even those who might drive an automobile like below, are crazies and worry me no end.

I hear ya. Some folks..many, in fact...were smart enough to realize the post was about the incident in general and not specifically the poor folks directly involved. But fortunately for us all, the disturbed individual that keeps posting poop in this tread has never been allowed near one of those publicly-owned vehicles.

 

[GURPS]

Cut him a break... He's a little slow, if ya know what I'm sayin'.

I am sorry Hank, who is working out of his garage because others cant stand him

 

[GURPS]

Sure it's complete now, supposedly, but if it just ended, and the family didn't want info given out,

cut sissy some slack, he wants to know if the story is real so he can hassle the family some more, with 'broken' tail light stops

I get it. He's a crossing guard, right? The vehicle is made by Mattel and comes in a match-box size.

 

[Lurk]

Ahem

We don't need to answer no stupid questions. We're the police!

You make no sense, pig lover.

 

[GURPS]

and yet you keep responding ... like the drooling id10t you are

. like the drooling id10t you are

Irony.

Oh Dear. Someone throw some water on Barney

Looks like privately-owned weapons in Maryland are already being targeted for confiscation. http://freedomoutpost.com/2014/03/gun-confiscation-110000-citizens-maryland-targeted/

And no less an intellectual light than Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D) TXwants to help by asking folks to voluntarily surrender their firearms just like Dick's Sporting Goods did. Except, Dick's didn't really stop selling firearms, did they?

Sounds like the confiscation of Gilligan's friend's weapons was really a dress rehearsal and not an administrative mix-up as characterized.

 

[Gilligan]

And then there is this disturbing news....

The brief warned that if “police are now permitted to justify no-knock raids any time there is a firearm in a residence, no American home is safe from a terrifying, middle of the night, home invasion.”

I just want to make sure I understand you on this..... If there is probable cause to believe a guy is dealing drugs in his house and has a bunch of weapons, you would suggest the police knock politely and ask him to give them the drugs?

 

[Gilligan]

For those too lazy to read:

“The police knew that Quinn’s son, Brian, the target of the raid, was not at home, and they knew that Quinn was a law abiding man. Indeed, the state of Texas had certified him as such by licensing him to carry a concealed weapon. Yet the Texas court embraced the prosecution’s theory that the police were in such grave danger from a sleeping man and an inanimate object that they were permitted to dispense with 4th Amendment requirement to knock on the door and announce themselves.”

That's entirely possible. I raised the question earlier: "How many people won't contest this kind of confiscation simply because the legal cost is too high?" How many people who have their firearm(s) wrongly confiscated are going to spend 2 or 3 grand in irrecoverable legal costs to retrieve firearm(s) that could be worth way less than that?

Be "interesting" to see.

For those too lazy to read:

Seems like if that were true, he would have offered that information in his motion to suppress the evidence. Since he did not, a reasonable person who doesn't get their news from an unreliable source, but relies on the transcribed official evidence would know that no such assertion was made in the suppression motion.

You have to stop relying on information from friends who are of the criminal type and news sources who are mis-leading you.

Now, about that law abiding father who had cocaine in a safe which to which his son did not have the combination. Doesn't sound very law abiding to me.

 

[Gilligan]

Seems like if that were true,

Ah, yes. The pattern continues.

Carry on, Barney. You've become highly predictable. And again, this tread is not for you.

There you go, when confronted with facts, you insult and say the information isn't for the person disageeing with you. If it weren't for me, why did you reply to my post?

THE FACT IS...HE NEVER ASSERTED HE THE POLICE KNEW OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWN HE WASN'T HOME AT THE TIME OF THE EXECUTION OF THE WARRANT. Talk about predictable. You keep passing bad information along.

Who confronted me with "facts"? Certainly not you; that's never your style.
