Do you think they would make it that clear cut ? By your standards, anyone working in the nuclear triad should quit right now. They some of them target cities. Or the solider who shoots back at a terrorist knowing a stray rounds are going have collateral damage. Almost every bomber mission in...
Of course not. But lawsuits are only starting . But why are these laws necessary? So if you were infected with a real deadly disease like smallpox or Marrburg do you think you should be allowed to spread it?
And yes , I have had to make that choice. We have had prisoners who were HIV positive...
Oh, if I was still active, I would be looking for you if you were in my jurisdiction. Why? You would have a legal course of redress that you chose not to take.
And yes, I understand the simplicity of taking direct action but you would still have the federal courts as well as NYS courts — the...
So no one should be a lawyer -lol ( sort of). Your client ‘s interests might not be the right thing. A defense lawyer gets a lot of guilty people off and back into the public to do it again. I’m not talking about shoplifters but child molesters , rapists , serial killers .
How about the priest...
Here we go again. You know, there is a chance that a member of the military might be ordered to fire upon someone or something against his/her conscience at some point , so by your logic , no one should join the military. That is your logic.
It’s better than you do use the term the government. It’s more accurate.
What you said would apply to ANY government employee including the military or just a clerk at the post office. And the military could do all of what you fear.
You mean like when the FBI, a divorce lawyer and half dozen other entities do similar things ? Whether the leave or not , they still won’t get their money until they get a judge involved . Or lien on a house or other property? I have never seen a patrol cop enforce that. It’s a different entity...
That’s an issue has been wrestled with since the founding of the country . And will continue long after we are gone.
I would worry less about arrests but what happened in Canada with the Csnadisn government reaction to the trucker’s protest. Froze their bank accounts and credit cards .
Yes, that is true and part of my point . Some say “they should quit in protest” or publicly stand against it eventhough it it will cost them their jobs for something they don’t encounter, can intentionally not encounter, or can screw up so the prosecution isn’t successful . These are the cops...
Yes it is. I said play by their rules. Look at the Bud light situations.
We are winning the 2A court battles.
We are seeing the desperation of left and deep state .
The Iserael Hamas thing has woken up a lot of democrats to things.
What has happened to sanctuary cities is waking up a lot of...
Take it down a notch Roy Epps-lol.
Learn the rules first before we say that . Just play by their rules. We are learning . Lawfare. It’s working . We knew when Bruen came down they would do all of this . It’s just taking longer than you would like.
Just remember that Brown v Board of Education...
A few problems with example . They don’t just imprison but kill their political enemies. And their families pay the price if someone steps out of line .And the whole place is a prison.
As police having to publicly say we aren’t enforcing something, is BS. The New Mexico thing . Even David Hogg...
Stop her. Then why did they leave?
She declares the place closed. Okay. So what. Fines, the doors close, owner reopens ten minutes later after she leaves. Same cops drive by later and see the place open and don’t care.
Really, how many were arrested for driving ?
How many were arrested for violating Covid rules - other than purposely getting arrested as a protest ?
Again, they had to bring in not normal LE to do it. And the numbers were small.
I think we would have more to worry about if they followed...
This bill is dangerous if only for two things. It addresses the stupidity of their evil features and actually goes after how the gun works . Then they make a list of exceptions so the bill passes . Then later, they just get rid of the exceptions without the fanfare.
How many people do you know were arrested for traveling during one of those times?
And what happens when they can’t plow a street because someone didn’t listen and the street is blocked with a car that got stuck? I remember the news stories where people died because ambulances couldn’t get thru...
So, by that standard, the police make you pay your taxes.
Again, that’s not your regular patrol cop doing that .
Did you ever see the video when two cops escorted a health department official to close a gym? The video where the gym owner when “caught” letting people work out claimed it was a...
Yes, but it wasn’t the regular police who were enforcing it . The true threat was a government agency with arrest or fining powers . Is a restaurant really afraid of the police shutting them down or the health department?
That is often the case. One doesn’t go but more often than not, emergency personnel will go, to save people from their own stupidity — and often their children too.
Part of the reason to ban general travel is to make travel by emergency and necessary personnel possible. If everyone is allowed...
Doesn’t work that way. Emergency vehicles and certain workers are exempt . National guardsmen have be able to go to their call up for example .
And it is often a risk for emergency personnel when somebody wants to violate those restrictions and for emergency personnel to travel . I remember...
This might be a victory for all of us if Maryland appeals. It goes to SCOTUS , if they take it, and then it might apply to NY as well. I miss just being able to walk into a local gun store and just walk out an hour later after a NICS check with whatever without all the extra unnecessary...
It’s the same with the new law as it is with the old . Three of the right people and you could “disappear “. Heck , one person who could forge a few signatures and change a few records could make it happen now. Heck, that movie “the net” with sanda bullock was just a 1990s paranoid movie that...
And the appeal process before any arrest would have been an article 78 . There was a process. Just not an administrative one before going to court .
And if you had been arrested , a writ of habits corpus could be issued to have due process at a minimum.
Do think they couldn’t do that now if a law was misused and had everybody on board? Thats where it would fall apart . That’s the whole purpose of habeas corpus.
It’s not the same . Not even close. As far as qualified immunity— it’s not what you think . Cops get sued all the time . It’s swallowing bs said and done to you that most posters here would put their fist through that other person’s face if they did it to them. Or the person could just call the...
“The underlying lawsuit was filed in 2016 as a challenge to a Maryland law requiring people to obtain a special license before purchasing a handgun.”
“The underlying lawsuit was filed in 2016 as a challenge to a Maryland law requiring people to obtain a special license before purchasing a...
I just read on another forum and then “fact checked” it. The law and court case only refers to the sale of firearms and not possession . Even with the court case win, you would still need a permit to carry. Cops generally don’t deal with sales at all so this decree is meaningless.
Any cop who follows that department policy after that court decision is a moron. And opens themselves up for more than a civil suit.
I think it was just announced so people won’t carry rather than an actual expectation that their cops will actually enforce it.
Again, I definitely see how it could be abused .
The writ is one way. The government would have present a case and explain things such as when is the person allowed to leave etc . The writ of habeas corpus powers have only been suspended a handful of times in our nation’s history. And the trick...
They could be exposed but they most likely would have the proper PPE to prevent it .
There is a legit reason for some of these laws like when Ebola came to our country and how one exposed reporter decided to leave quarantine anyway .
Actually, a writ of habeas corpus is one method .
Having said that , this law could definitely be abused . And they could claim whole groups were infected.
I had to explain to my daughter this false moral equivalency that they are trying to make between HAMAS and Isreal.
I had to explain if Taylor Swift had a concert in Isreal that night , my daughter would be one of Victims and that many foreigners were kidnapped, raped and murdered by Hamas that...
I am very much pro-Israel but don’t agree with completely preventing people against Israel from coming here. People who send support to HAMAS is a different matter.
Big mistake in that tweet . It wasn’t Guiliani who started the stop and frisk program . It was started by Howard Safir under Mike Bloomberg, the anti-gun money backer of “Everytown “
My understanding of the social security system is that it’s really multiple systems .
One is the old people retirement that we all know. The second is SSI which is the system for those who need ( or claim to need) services who did not pay into the system— this is the 35 year old who claims to...
I think the court cases are going to win on this one. Forget Bruen, the ammo thing wouldn’t survive the old two tier rule as far it applies to permit holders . If you have a permit for the firearm that takes that ammo, the state ‘s “ need” was already meant under the old rules.
No, there are many Muslims of different backgrounds and beliefs just like there are many types of Christians.
Ask Marcus Latrell of “Lone survivor “ fame . People of the Muslim faith run the gamut.
There are many Muslim people I would trust and have trusted with my life .
Just an update , the rocket that landed on the hospital was seen live on Al-jezza TV during a rocket attack aimed at Israel. The rocket fell short and landed on the hospital.
This was Hamas’s plan.
They commit such a terrorist attack, wait for the Israeli response and cry victim.
The hospital attack was probably their own rockets . They put their facilities in with the civilian population. The war crimes are theirs.
Please don’t use that example. You should see the laws that passed after that one. In NYC, one technically need a driver’s license to pump gas, can not legally pump gas in most gas cans yourself , and more .
