The first step is admitting that you have a problem

Like Miguel, I am moving.

I took it upon myself to spend the last couple of days packing my gun room.

Me (loading up 2 unopened cases of 12 gauge field load, 8 ammo cans, and 14 small moving boxes full of ammo): “Jesus, that’s a lot of ammo.  This is ridiculous, how am I going to move all of this?”

Me (2 seconds after taping the last box closed): “I should buy more 9mm JHP and 223.”

Video proof that qualified immunity needs to end

The woman is suing state police, which seems quite justified.

Dashcam video from the trooper’s patrol car shows as soon as the blue lights go on, the driver, Nicole Harper, slows down and moves into the right lane.

Harper then turns on her hazards, which is what the Arkansas State Police “Driver License Study Guide” instructs drivers to do when there is not a safe place to stop.

Harper is suing state police, claiming the PIT maneuver on her vehicle was negligent and using excessive force.

Add to this that it is well known that PIT maneuvers are extremely dangerous when used on trucks/vans/SUVs because the high center of gravity of those vehicles can cause them to flip over.

This wasn’t a bank robbery suspect or a vehicle with a bunch of warrants out on it, this was incredibly dangerous for no reason other than the cop wanted to use his fancy police driving skills.

This cop needs to be sued personally, left destitute, then thrown into a dark hole for a very long time.

Instead, nothing will happen to him because qualified immunity is bullshit.
