That’s what you are doing and asking cops to be in a Time Machine to know what will be recognized as right or wrong in the future. This would be considered a felony now: And not for the reason you think And the two men would be arrested for rape in this one It wasn’t seen as wrong in 1983

Ah, so the standard of what are rights are based on your feelings. The Catholic might “ feel” that the Roe v Wade type rulings violate the right of life . Homosexual acts and acts associated with it ( sodomy) were illegal until very recently in most places. Are those prior arrests a violation of...

Marriage is both a religious and civil commitment. Only two people can be legally married now. Do you think that should change ? Or just say married people have no “ special “ legal, property or tax protections with each other? Snd since you responded before my edit was completed. Here is the...

Some of what you say is factually incorrect but morally correct . A court did rule against the internment of the Japanese just many decades too late under the argument that the FBI didn’t turn over all the information in the 1980’s. But by your reasoning, homosexuals should sue for not being...

I gave the quote in my previous post. More evidence of the loss of rights for criminal conviction are the punishments of branding which were common. Like Hawthorne’s Scarlet letter, it was a punishment that endured long after the wound healed. Here is a paper on felon “ disenfranchisement “...

Not all weapon laws are unconstitutional despite your belief as per SCOTUS and the founding fathers — they had some weapons laws back then too. Felons losing their rights was okay with the founding fathers . “David Kopel, the research director and Second Amendment project director at the...

You have no idea how many breaks are given by cops when it comes to DWI to non-cops to only have it come back to bite the cop . For example, a cop I know pulled over a DWI. Rather than arrest him, he allowed him to call for a ride but to make sure the guy just didn’t drive home ( the cop...

I know of many cops who have driven drunk. I have known many who have gotten away with it and many who haven’t ( arrested). One reason why many cops won’t arrest a cop for drunk driving is exactly what some here are calling for— a loss of almost everything with very little opportunity for...

Yeah but you want one that even a liberal can say “ maybe I think he might be the exception “. Dick Heller was that. He was an armed security guard.

It will come down to who the plaintiffs are. A retired peace officer ( not a police officer) who can not enter his former place of work with a firearm would be a “ good “ plaintiff. Any NYC permit holder who is not a retired police officer might qualify considering that the NYC requires one...

It depends. If Desantis got the parade permit for that part of the street then the answer is no the protesters don’t have a right to be there at that particular spot . They could protest on another part of the street but not where the permit for his group is going to be. And yes, they can be...

No it doesn’t . If you are at a protest, and the protest is to be confined to certain area such as the anti -gun people at the NRA convention, they can make people wearing anti-gun shirts leave . Not just private security but the police can do this as well. Separate protesters from others...

Poor choice of words but how do you tell the protesters from Desantis supporters? Look at the pictures of the people he is talking to. They are with people holding anti-desantis signs . Let’s have some common sense here and put the words said in the context of the situation

It was not because they were wearing Trump clothes . It was because it was a protest of Trump supporters against Desantis. The SECURITY guard told them to leave the premises.

There are “ legal services” insurance available. It technically isn’t insurance but a group of lawyers with a subscription service. It’s how they get around Andy’s and the AG’s insurance degree.

There is no evidence that attending a Black Lives Matter event spread covid but other outdoor protests alledgely were cancelled or outlawed because it would . Wonder why there was no evidence? Because the health officials were ordered not to even ask the question about attending BLM rallies to...

One, they did meet with the Russian. It is not illegal to listen to information. Otherwise it would be illegal for Hillary to get the Steele dossier which was created by a foreign national from information from another foreign national . Double standard? Neither was illegal in itself.

Solicited campaign assistance from a Russian? That is not what happened. Fusion GPS worked with a Russian agent who solicited Trump jr. A Russian agent who was denied entry into the USA until a special visa was arranged by the Obama White House . These are all facts . Fusion GPS met with the...

Just toward the FOX case. Where did any of the host say Dominion did such and such? They interviewed someone who made the claim. Even the some of the liberal media admits Carlson gave a tough interview .

The problem is the “ requirement “. The requirement can be changed to a point that it is difficult or impossible to comply with it. Is it smart to take a class? Yep but many have been trained from birth by their parents to safely handle firearms without a formal class.

These dumb law makers will get more children killed with this law. Do they know why children shoot themselves when they find a gun? With a heavy trigger pull , the child can’t pull it with their fingers , they will turn the gun around to use their thumbs. They get so focused on pulling the...

Yes, the ramping up of production is needed and two-fold. One, Ukraine was sent the older stocks of ammo and those stocks are now getting depleted. Two, a lesson the west is learning is that precision guided ammunition is a force multiplier but the need for ammunition is higher than the west has...

It’s not just for guns made in the state. It applies to manufactures who sell guns in the state. It’s a way of getting companies not to sell their products here.

The pension is 174k a year? Not quite. From Wikipedia but backed up by other sites: “The accrual rate for congressional service between 1984 and December 31, 2012, is covered by a FERS "special" computation that is similar to that for Federal employees such as First Responders, FBI Special...

It’s really isn’t. The entire population would have to be put into database. And even when they think they have done that, too many hacks around it.

Do you really want that? I thought you were against even license plates? Now you want the government to use facial recognition software to track people ? “ gait recognition “isn’t there yet that it can identify a person from a large database in the same manner as facial recognition or...

They tried to ban people from mass transit before. The courts said no. And even if they did, good luck enforcing it.

True.

He is one of the only democrats to stand up to Cuomo when Cuomo wanted to raid the pension funds to pay for a Bridge

Wow. That might be a possibility and a great “threat” over the states that keep messing with SCOTUS decision.

The question is was there a history of such standards when the constitution was established. Not could a child do something in the name of an adult . We all know at one time , an adult could send a child with money and a note to buy beer for the adult too. It doesn’t mean the law allowed that ...

What makes you think he was going to come back with the car? Did the officer in the crash even know the circumstances of the theft ? As if that really matters. Why report it stolen in the first place then, should we blame the person who reported it too? Did the officer start the chase or was...

You do realize that this was a car chase situation. Not the same thing. It’s like one of those gun control activist using a school shooting . There are plenty of cops speeding off and on duty examples to use instead of exploiting this tragedy.

Sure. But the difference is in travel and that autos are usually made in many identical copies unlike people . And yes, I had a part in a murder investigation with identical twins. The good news was that we had someone who knew them both and could tell them apart .

The same way Officer Wilson did in the Mike Brown case. Stop people who fit the description. And yes, multiple people who fit the description in the area might be stopped , held until the witnesses can be brought to where we stopped the person to identify the person. Baring that option, mug shot...

So basically no matter how speeding and other traffic laws were enforced, you would have a problem with it because speed and red light cameras would require such identifiers. You would have a problem with a cop following you home just to enforce a traffic law despite you proposing it as a a...

A fake plate is a violation of the law. And often a felony depending on how they faked it. To follow them? Really ? And after they pull into a driveway then what ? They might be at a friends house. What if they are renters or the house is another name ? What if their next stop is in the next...

I have never violated someone’s constitutional rights as determined by SCOTUS. NYS court of appeals is a different manner. I did simply ask people if they had any weapons on them rather than pull them out of the car on a rainy night to see if I could observe “something.” as they wanted in Lopez...

Yes, then you don’t know who the driver is. People remove or cover up the plates etc. New York City has basically gone to that and look what happened https://www.nbcnewyork.com/investigations/license-to-steal-criminals-use-fake-paper-tags-on-getaway-cars-nypd-says/3189233/ He declared, “No...

Your statements say a lot about your work conditions and what you have deal with on a day to day basis. Some of us have/had a different environment.. A Lilly white ( for lack of better description ) neighborhood like a Mayberry, USA is not where you are dealing with people who attack police as...

Alton Stirling was an example of the suspect resisting and had a gun.

It could be. But it would be very easy for a bomb to be dropped on such evidence.

Schoolhouse rock did shape my views. When you are five or six, this teaching method sticks.

Again, some of us ask questions because we don’t want to be the test case to go to SCOTUS after years in prison. Or at a minimum lose our guns while the court cases go on and on and on

Guys, this is a very legitimate question . Remember NY now had that semi-auto license now.

Explaining the realities isn’t the same as agreeing with it.

I think it’s more than left the door open -lol

They were correct that the judge overturned it but the state appealed . The law is back in effect until the appeal court rules.

If it’s just a 3 judge panel, either side can ask for the En Banc. Or appeal to SCOTUS. An En banc or a SCOTUS decision to review the case can be flatly denied unlike an initial appeal . I am basing what I am saying as to what happened in CA and the 9th circuit

Go look it up. Look at the covid restrictions and how long that took https://www.rpc.senate.gov/policy-papers/covid-and-religion-at-scotus it’s how the court works.
