Semi-retired like Vito Corleone before the heart attack. Consiglieri to J.Kb and AWA. I lived in a Gun Control Paradise: It sucked and got people killed. I do believe that Freedom scares the political elites.

Getting NYC Stupid out of your body.

For people who do not heeled, New Yorkers (And Jersey people too) have big attitudes and accompanying mouths. That is all fine and dandy if they are in their little Gun Free Zone reservations where they can use physical violence against a weaker subject, but it does not play well in Fly-Over Country.

MIAMI BEACH, Fla. – A New York man was shot Saturday after police said he attacked a woman in front of her boyfriend and his young child along Ocean Drive in Miami Beach, police said.
Mamadou Bah, 26, of Brooklyn, faces a charge of battery.
According to the arrest report, Bah had been fighting with a group of unknown men in the 1000 block of Ocean Drive just before 7 p.m. when the couple, along with the 8-month-old child, passed by. The victim’s boyfriend began recording Bah on his mobile phone, causing Bah to become irate and confront the couple, the report said.
Bah then struck the victim with his fists, the report said. The couple tried to retreat, but when Bah continue to lunge at them, the boyfriend pulled out a gun and fired three times, striking Bah in the left arm, the report said.

New York man shot in Miami Beach after attacking woman, police say

I know I am not the only one that think the only reason more of these type of tourist are not sent back in boxes is because we are nice and law-abiding.  And since we carry, we already know there is a gun that can get involved in the fight and that is something we don’t want.

I did a quick check, and I found a man from New York City with the same name who was arrested outside Kennedy Airport for having a bunch of dope in his possession.

I guess we have to endure the flapping abusive mouth, but hopefully the message will be sent that laying hands on a mother may cost you an unannounced trip to the ER followed by a stay at the local Pokey Club and Handcuff Boutique.

As for the rest of us, let us not forget that we win nothing by trying to win a silly argument with an idiot. Our final objective is to go home and sleep in our bed that day, safe and sound and with our loved ones close by. Anything else is just trying get an unnecessary ego boost.

Avoidance, Deterrence and De-Escalation.

 

My reading today: Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Commission Report.

Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Commission Report, all 407 pages of it.

Other than a brief mention, I have not made an in deep comment about the report since I have not sat down and go thorough it. I am going in with a huge grain of salt since I do not believe the commission had all the facts regarding the institutionalized coverup of student crimes.

I may or may not do a post. Four hundred pages ain’t chicken feed to summarize

Moms Demand Teaches “Gun Safety” by Violating The Four Rules. And then gets interesting.

Help me out here. I trained years ago as IDPA Safety Officer and then as NRA Certified Safety Officer and then NRA Instructor who did the Home Firearm Safety Course module. Maybe I missed that part of the training in all those instances, but I do not seem to recall the part where you get to grab a gun by the muzzle! Holy fucking instructional chicanery, Batman!

But wait, there is more. Did you notice the Powerpoint presentation with the Gun Safety Rules?

If you pay a bit of attention to the small print, you will discover something funny.

Are they using info retrieved from the National Sports Shooting Foundation, an organization they vilified so much for selling “evil assault rifles” that only the NRA is higher in the list of venomous propaganda?

I should be mad (and I am a bit) but it also is great proof that Moms Demand, as much as they call themselves a “Gun Safety Organization” have not created anything substantial other than buying legislators to push Gun Control and if they are pushed into providing actual teaching classes on Gun Safety, they must rely on “the enemy.”

And still, they screw it up.

 

Florida Supreme Court drops a bomb in the Liberal World.

Saw it at Andrew Branca’s.

Siding with a Broward County sheriff’s deputy who fatally shot a man, the Florida Supreme Court on Thursday unanimously ruled that law-enforcement officers can use the state’s “stand your ground” self-defense law to be shielded from prosecution…

…In an 11-page opinion, Justice Alan Lawson wrote that two parts of the controversial “stand your ground” law make clear that a “person” is justified in using deadly force and does not have a duty to retreat if that person believes it is necessary to prevent death or great bodily harm.

“Because these statutes plainly and unambiguously afford Stand Your Ground immunity to any ‘person’ who acts in self-defense, there should be no reason for further analysis,” Lawson wrote, going on to cite an earlier court case and a dictionary definition. “Put simply, a law enforcement officer is a ‘person’ whether on duty or off, and irrespective of whether the officer is making an arrest. Although neither of the two statutes defines the word ‘person,’ it must be given its ‘plain and ordinary meaning.’ In common understanding, ‘person’ refers to a ‘human being,’ which is not occupation-specific and plainly includes human beings serving as law enforcement officers.”

Florida police officers can use ‘stand your ground’ defense to avoid prosecution, court rules

I did not know about the case. In every court instances and appeals the State, lost including the Florida Supreme Court.

What was supposed to be a simple Immunity From Prosecution case, managed to get the Stand Your Ground part included in the Supreme Court decision. and for once I believe it favors us greatly.

First: it gives the law gravitas from a legal standpoint. This reduces the false idea that this was a bad law written by the NRA but a law that it may not be bad after all since every court decided in favor of the defendant. Add it as a third leg on the argument: 1) There are at least three SCOTUS decision in favor of SYG. 2) For being such a bad law, nobody has dared to take it and challenge it in Federal Court and now 3) The Florida Supreme Court looks kindly upon it.

Second: I can say that if there were any cops in the State of Florida reluctant to accept Stand Your ground and Immunity From Prosecution, I can almost guarantee you there will be a lot less after the word of this SCOFL decision spread over the state. That means we get firm allies on our side as nobody is dumb to reject what may keep him/her out of jail and out of the Poor House.

OK, at least that is what I think will be the “consequences” of this decision. Feel free to give us your thoughts in the comments.

As usual read the original documents. Here is a copy of Florida v. Peraza December 13, 2018.

Dear New Jersey Cops: you don’t get an exception on magazines.

So, they can only have the 15+ mags on duty and while coming and going to an authorized place of duty.

I will say I agree, but I am dumbfounded about the political myopia that comes from not giving the exception to cops outside the job. Are they not expecting cops to be ticked off about possibly going to jail if they stave off an attack at home and they happen to use a gun with a 17 round mag?

I do believe New Jersey Gun Owners will benefit from the Separation of Liberal State and Law Enforcement.  Cops will be less inclined on giving them crap for having one of the Evil Assault Magazine Clips.

When an enemy is making a mistake, do not correct him as Bonaparte said once.
