Never Leave Home Without One

Yep. Our city is financially and morally bankrupt. But at least our mayor is of a social-justice approved skin color.

Hi D,

Yup. That’s also the case in VA. I have a concealed carry permit. VA law requires me to retreat – and if I use a gun to protect myself, I had better be able to establish without question that my life was in imminent danger. My feeling that my “safety” was “threatened” will not cut it.

Why does it cut for AGWs?

Another question that deserves an answer.

They have effectively been given a license to kill. People ought to be troubled by what that implies.

The NRA has taken over most ranges. Last one I attended the ‘certified with papers NRA range lord soy boy’ walked through with a gun holstered on his leg telling everyone what a bad ass he was in Afghanistan, I was cleaning my weapon from the last volley, he jumped all over me for having the weapon, unloaded and 10 feet from the shooters area during a pause to go check targets. I left and haven’t been back. I doubt the ahole ever saw what I consider combat.

The NRA assisted in writing many of the ‘common sense gun laws’ so they are a fraud. They are just after the money, I get a request to join every three months. The Gun Owners of America are good to go but they re ignored for the most part. What little these organizations do to help the situation the massive indoctrination in the education and media counteract 24 and 7. Privately owned guns will be history soon. Look around the world,,, if a country like UK makes knives illegal then it goes without saying that guns are no problem. The meek and wimpy citizenry in the US where half or more live on some sort of government largess will go with whatever the government says.

Pardon my French- but we have a saying where I live…Shoot, shovel, and Shut up.

And WHERE are many AGWs being trained? Somewhere between Cairo and Damascus, from what I’ve heard…

I also have one in the rear window as well powered by the same power supply with a wire run through the headliner.

I have little doubt what he says happened before hand. But what he did after was stupid. Sure it is an understandable reaction but with a cop it can get a person killed. Just let the cops go and follow a 1/4 mile or more behind.

Given Chicago following distance standards it doesn’t seem he was all that close until just before he got pulled over.

I drive (and bike) with every expectation that any cop I see will do stuff like this. The reason being is that I’ve seen all sorts of crap from cops. There isn’t a news story here because it is so commonplace. The funny thing is that it has dramatically decreased for me since I started having a camera ride shotgun. But that probably is explained by different driving patterns or maybe they do see the camera. I don’t know.

Hi X,

Yup. “Coonman,” indeed. If he weren’t a liberal Democrat, he’d be rooming with Harvey Weinstein. Also, the Lt. Governor, who has been accused by several women of rape. How come we’re not “listening” to those women?

It’s probably inevitable that they will come for the guns of people – like me – who’ve never committed any crime with a gun – or otherwise. If you haven’t got enough criminals, create them.

In the same manner that it arbitrarily became illegal “speeding” to drive faster than 55 on the same roads that, the day before the new law went into effect, had speed limits of 65 or 70 or 75 – it will become felonious to own a “high capacity” magazine that was legally bought and never used for any malign purpose.

Northam is an example of an upright cockroach, but without the useful purpose that roaches serve.

Hi Allen,

My 50 on this is that the “work” attracts borderline personality types. As a thought exercise, I considered the prospect of becoming a part-time deputy in my county; the extra money would be very helpful (leaving aside the matter of where it came from; this being a thought exercise). But then I thought about the “work” I’d be required to do – including the manning of “checkpoints” and radar traps. I could never involve myself in such activities, regardless of the money.

What sort of person could?

The answer is a person who isn’t troubled by hassling innocent people. Whether for some “greater good”or just because he enjoys or simply doesn’t care – it’s all Bad News.

It is my opinion that no basically humane and thoughtful person can stomach the “work” AGWs perform. Ergo, you get nihilistic rule-quoters, order barkers and control freaks and bullies and outright psychopaths.

It inheres in the nature of the thing.

Security cameras saved one man from 7 years in prison for “attempted murder of a police officer” the arresting cop spent one day in jail for framing an innocent man -Cop Sentenced To Four Days For Bogus Arrest Of Sheepshead Bay Man

YOU READ IT HERE FIRST: A cop who falsely claimed that a Sheepshead Bay man tried to run him down in a car was sentenced to four days in prison – only one day more than his victim was locked up based on the officer’s bogus charges.
Officer Diego Palacios pleaded guilty at a hearing on Thursday in Brooklyn Supreme Court in exchange for a sentence of four days and his resignation from the New York City Police Department, the District Attorney’s office told Sheepshead Bites.
The three-day sentence has Palacios’s victim, East 23rd Street resident John Hockenjos, furious – and afraid for his safety.
“This individual spends four days in prison, with no probation, and he gets out of jail today or tomorrow and he’s a free man to do whatever he wants,” Hockenjos told Sheepshead Bites. “And I have to be in pure fear that there could be retribution. I should not be in this position; there should at least be probation.”

Palacios arrested Hockenjos in February 2012, saying on a police report that Hockenjos drove his car at “a high rate of speed” towards the officer in an attempt to hit him, forcing him “to jump out of the way.” Hockenjos was charged with felony reckless endangerment and spent three days behind bars before making bail.

Hockenjos could have lost his freedom for seven years. Surveillance video from Hockenjos’ home, though, cleared his name. The video shows Hockenjos slowly pulling into the driveway and stopping several feet away from the officers. Hockenjos and his wife got out of the car to talk to the police. The officer did not budge, as he had claimed.
In June, a grand jury indicted Palacios for offering a false instrument for filing, falsifying business records, making an apparently sworn false statement, perjury and making a punishable false written statement. He was also charged with official misconduct.
According to Hockenjos, four days in prison is no more than just a slap on the wrist for the man who nearly took everything from him.
“It looks like he really did nothing. It’s almost as if someone was charged with shoplifting, like picking up a pack a gum from the drug store,” Hockenjos said. “It’s like my life, all of my assets, my reputation is worth just a pack of gum. That’s what they’re saying.”
Even more galling, Hockenjos said, is that the assistant District Attorney on the case, Elizabeth Moehle, abandoned all the usual courtesies for the victim in prosecuting the case. Hockenjos said he wasn’t told about Thursday’s hearing until after the fact, and the District Attorney’s office never ran the plea deal by him.
“I started crying right away,” Hockenjos said of hearing news of the deal last week. “I’m afraid now. What’s going to happen to me?”
Though not required by law, the District Attorney’s office said that as a matter of policy, their office seeks the victim’s approval for all plea deals.
A spokesperson for District Attorney Charles Hynes told Sheepshead Bites that Hockenjos did give the thumbs up to the deal.
“We never do a plea unless the victim agrees to it. So that actually happened,” said Hynes spokesperson Sandy Silverstein.
Hockenjos said the only previous plea agreements discussed were in the early stages, when he was told the officer was likely to face three years.
“They said it would be three years, I thought it should be five. We had different opinions, but at least the order of magnitude is correct. To give him four days – one day more than I spent in prison – for the things he did to me is out of this world. It’s unreasonable,” said Hockenjos.
Hockenjos and his wife, Irena, say they live in fear that Palacios and his former colleagues at the 61st Precinct will seek retribution. Since the initial arrest, they’ve been afraid to call officers to report suspicious activity, or to protect them in an ongoing property dispute with a neighbor, who they claim has physically attacked them in the past.
“Now police officers can just shoot us to death and they won’t even face jail time, they’ll just resign from the police department,” Irena said. “This is very scary. I’m afraid to stay in the house; I’m afraid to step out.”
On the occasions that they have called 911, police have arrived only to shout at Irena Hockenjos, she said, and their complaints to the Internal Affairs Bureau have gone unanswered. They have also confronted the precinct’s former commanding officer, to no avail, they said.
“The 61st Precinct officers, they know what happened, and they know they can do whatever they want,” said John Hockenjos.
The NYPD’s spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment. This post will be updated if a comment is received.
Correction (5:43 p.m.): The original version of this story spelled the officer’s name incorrectly. It has since been amended. We regret any confusion this may have caused.
