I approve the party in Charlottesville
Seriously, I do not see a downside to this.
I’ll make pizza and enjoy watching.
Doxing Gun Owners? You may want to rethink that one.
Still not sure what is it all about. Caught some snippets here and there in Twitter about the Main Stream Media and some in Social Media doxing Law Abiding Gun Owners.
I know some groups love to show up at people’s houses, mob up, barricade the homeowner’s entrances and generally raise shit to embarrass them. But I don’t know how good that would work with Gun Owners, I mean, it would be like sending deer wearing bells straight to a deer stand.
Easy Venison.
PS: Doxing goes both ways. Just sayin’
The LawDog Files: African Adventures.
It is out in Kindle. Missus already has her copy. I shall wait for the Cellulose Version.
It seems this book, barely 48 hours, out is doing quite well.
I could not be happier. LawDog gave us many laughs through the years and this is just rewards.
Alabama Immunity from Prosecution case: Shernita Stubbs Thomas
Shernita Stubbs Thomas, 28, was arrested last year after she shot her husband – Mario Moore – multiple times during a day of arguing at the couple’s Queenstown Avenue home. This week, Jefferson County Circuit Judge Clyde Jones dismissed the felony charge against her after a pretrial hearing on immunity from prosecution.

If a case shows the utmost importance of Immunity from Prosecution in a Pre Trial hearing, this is it:
On April 6, 2016 the couple got into an argument. “He strangled me that day because he didn’t receive his social security check at the house, which had actually been direct deposited,” Thomas said.
He left the house, and Thomas called police and reported what happened. Court records indicate the 911 calls made by Thomas during the domestic violence incident in the hours before the shooting, photographs taken by police of Thomas’s injuries and messages saved by investigators from Thomas’s phone of “Mr. Moore threatening to set her and her car on fire after he had strangled Ms. Thomas,” were among the items later requested by her attorney.
Moore returned to their home a short time later. “When he came back in the house, I was scared for my life,” she said.
That’s when the shooting happened. “It was scary,” she said. “I’d never been in a situation where I had to use a deadly weapon.
This is no a question of He-Said-She-Said but one which the cops had already responded to and had enough documentation to arrest and indict Mr. Moore for Attempted Murder. Why was Ms. Stubbs arrested and charged?
I am gonna quote reader Miles as I find his version very plausible:
“I’ve come to the conclusion from reading of many similar type incidents, that prosecutors are loath to not charge the survivor with something, even though they know a judge will see through the crap and throw out the charge.
They keep their record of being ‘tough on crime (You see? It’s those damn judges letting them off “on a technicality”) BS to maintain their ‘aura’ so in the future some poor schmuck is more likely to take a plea bargain – and I’ll bet this guy was offered such and told the prosecutor where to go and how to get there – than fight the charge.”
And that can be called Prosecutorial Misconduct and a misuse of taxpayers monies.
