A Florida shooting to make Liberals sweat.
Inside a McDonalds one unarmed man accuses another of cutting in front of him and proceeds to threaten him. The accused individual produces a gun and shoots the first guy. Judge grants Stand Your Ground/Immunity from Prosecution and the shooter goes free.
Hell to be raised by Liberals and Gun Control?
But the visit to the North Miami-Dade Golden Arches unraveled when another patron accused him of cutting in line to order. That customer, an older white man, suddenly began spouting racial slurs and threats at Gibbs, a young black man. The episode ended with Gibbs in jail — for firing a shot at the irate but unarmed customer, causing panic inside the restaurant.
Nearly three years later, however, Gibbs has been cleared of any crime. He persuaded a Miami judge that he was only acting in self-defense when he fired at Phillip Ledea at the door of the fast food restaurant in December 2015.
A Miami judge this month tossed out felony charges against Gibbs, 25, a part-time dockworker who had gone to McDonald’s to pick up a meal for his son the day after Christmas. He had been charged with aggravated battery with a weapon and carrying a concealed weapon. Ledea was not injured in the shooting.
After racial slurs in Miami McDonald’s line, a shot is fired. Was it self defense?
I barely read the article, so I am not going to make an in-depth analysis of the shooting and the legality. But I wanted to point out how this particular event gets Gun Control and Liberals in a conundrum.:
“Do we condemn the poor Black Guy because he shot an unarmed man? We can’t! That would be racist and he was defending himself from a racist! But if we do not condemn him and agree with the judge decision, the narrative that Stand Your Ground is a tool to oppress African-Americans and other goes down the drain!”
And I love that.
Facebook announces new community standards.
And since really i did not care to read them the last time around, I cannot say what is the difference with this new batch of regulations.
Here is a screen cap about the gun “standards.”
So the first thing I did just now was to go to my Facebook account and post this:
I think I added enough words to trigger the alogarithms . We shall see
Commission Begins Probe Tuesday Into Parkland School Tragedy. – The Fix is In.
A commission tasked with investigating government actions surrounding the Florida high school massacre and the state’s other mass shootings is set to hold its first meeting.
The Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Commission is to meet Tuesday to discuss its mission and how it will conduct its investigation. The 16 members are also to hear from the Broward Sheriff’s Office about its investigation into the Feb. 14 shooting that left 17 dead and 17 wounded.
…
The commission’s final report is due Jan. 1.
Commission Begins Probe Tuesday Into Parkland School Tragedy.
Two and a half months after the massacre and no report due till way after the election.
The importance of keeping Broward Country in the hands of Democrats is primordial and if they have to do it over the corpses of children, so be it.
Yeti comes up with an explanation for dropping the NRA. Not buying it.
Please click to enlarge.
Sorry, not buying. This smells like some of the corporate office thought it would be cool to follow the Liberal trend and grab some headlines till somebody else remembered that Hippies don’t have money to buy their overpriced coolers and hipster don’t go camping. And if it was a misunderstanding, how come it took this long to get it cleared? Did they give notice on Friday and then everybody in Yeti turned off the phones and computers? Nah, it sounds that they got flooded with a bunch of messages stating “F and U and we ain’t buying your shit.”
And, of course, I am sure pure brutal capitalism and the fact that the competition is making hay of their mistake, may have influenced their decision to come up with a really crappy explanation/excuse:
Underlined in red in both pictures are the times when they posted these notes. Note Pelican made its offer and three hours later Yeti finally appeared in the radar.
Listen, I would understand some vineyard in California not wanting to associate itself with initials that gives hives to most of their southern region, but crapping on outdoors people?
Bad mistake.
Update: Even Bison Coolers got with the program before Yeti.
