And as for a Constitutional Convention, I think you have a better chance to get Medicare to pay for a Barret .50 BMG and thousand rounds of ammo. If what I read is accurate, 200 attempts have been made with zero results.
And, of course, there is that thing about the Bill of Rights being rights not given by the Constitution but just enumerated therefore outside the scope of a Constitutional Convention.
I underline the hashtags because of the next exchange: Almost 40 hours later and still no reply from her. I am guessing she is still waiting for the paint to dry.
Via Bob Owens at Bearing Arms. The following are my comments and thoughts and not Legal Advice. I am too ugly to be playing a lawyer on the webs.
The guy would not quit. After hitting the pedestrians, knifing 2 rabbis (one died) and shot by the civilian, the bastard keeps going even when downed. That bring us to the concept of the anchor shot which is basically a properly placed shot to the head so the perpetrator stops for sure and no more actions would be forthcoming.
Anchor shot is controversial. On one hand the idea that a still living perpetrator, properly motivated by conviction and/or drugs may continue his wrongdoing after a brief pause and needs to be stopped for sure, versus the perception that the shooter is executing the bad guy with a coup de grace and the forthcoming legal trouble he might be facing.
In a case like the above, the shooter has plenty of evidence and help to go around: witnesses, the video itself, the victims being knifed and being Israel, they don’t go ACLU for the terrorists so even when he did not put one in his head. After the second time the terrorist got up, a properly placed shot to the brain pan would have been the right response as he looks like a continuous threat.
Same case and on this side of the world? You have to figure out where you live. Do you live in an area where the local prosecutor would understand the concept of continuous threat or he/she will look at you as extra 20,000 votes for the next election if he dresses you in all orange, specially if he is trying to pander to the #ColorOfTheDayMatters crowd. Or live in a State that does not provide you with immunity from civil prosecution and the relatives of Knife Boy are gonna come after your hard-earned belongings because he was “a good kid that loved his momma but too a wrong turn”? Unfortunately, you have to add that kind of crap to your equation.
Other anchoring shots (but without the finality of immediate death) would be to the pelvic griddle and the knees. If you happen to place a good shot to the pelvis and break it, there is no way in heck that the guy will get up again, not matter how determined of full of flakka he can be. The knee is much trickier as it is a smaller target and probably moving a lot so it basically means a contact shot and that is being too close to the subject.
So what’s the final answer? There is none. It will depend on the events and circumstances and your own set of rules to use deadly force
The actress equates gun safety with strives that have been made in the automobile industry as well. “For cars, you have to have training and you have to have a license, and you wear seat belts and we have airbags and we have all of these things in place that have reduced fatalities unbelievably,” Moore says. “And it was a totally unregulated industry at first. I feel like something that is very sensible and straight forward can be done also with guns.”
Think about it. This weird Italian guy has gone to every place of power in the Western World with his “crazy” idea to find another route to China, same as if today a nobody opens a GoFundMe requesting you send him money so he could go to Mars.
In this 15th Century search for investors, he finally bumps into one woman, a queen from a country that just finished several centuries worth of warfare and expelled the Islamic Assholes who invaded and subjugated her people for over seven centuries. Now, the country is plum broke, debts are sky-high and officially the kingdom cannot afford two quarters rubbed together for insane exploration when the scientific consensus of the day is that there is nothing out there and that those who take the trip, will face death,
The Spanish Queen, she has ‘nads the size of Miura bulls and something tells her this deranged Eye-talian might be on to something. She collects whatever jewelry she has left and tell the Crazy Man from Genoa “I’ll put money on your GoFundMe and we will split the profits of whatever you found.” HOLY SHIT BATMAN! PURE BRUTAL INVESTMENT CAPITALISM!.
Columbus ten proceeds to find ships equivalent of mounting a space program with the leftovers of the 1960s Russian and American Space Program and a bunch of rejects that failed shop in High School. He takes to the seas…and damn! he actually was right and hits the biggest jackpot in the history of humanity. He is proven right and becomes rich, Queen Isabella’s gamble and investment also is proven right (And she gets to tell her King Hubby “I told you so”) and she becomes richer than Oprah.
And you still wonder why the Left hates Christopher Columbus much? He embodies what they hate: Self Determination and will power.
PS: And stop whining about Leif Garret Erickson and those who “may” have come before: They were too drunk or stupid to understand what was in front of their faces. They were losers.
“While colleges and universities may properly adopt policies and provide student services that reduce the likelihood such incidents will occur on their campuses, they are not liable for the criminal wrongdoing of mentally-ill third parties, regardless of whether such conduct might be in some sense foreseeable,” she wrote.
And there goes the budget for Security across campuses in California. But don’t worry, remember that the new law signed by Gov. Jerry brown will make sure no shootings will occur in the high houses of superior educashion.
