St. Louis prosecutor to detective on McCloskey case: 'I suggest you quickly reassess this evidence'

Documents show lead detective initially refused to sign documents prosecutors wrote about the case
 

The lead St. Louis police detective investigating the McCloskey case refused to sign at least two versions of court documents prosecutors drafted, according to a review of those documents obtained by 5 On Your Side.
 

In addition, police contend at least one person in the crowd was armed and another was wearing a bullet-resistant vest, after analyzing videos taken June 28, when the couple confronted protesters with guns.

That phone call they played on-air should put paid to this persecution, and that DA should be facing charges.

Can't wait to see Roberts ***** us again.  California has to push this to the Supreme Court and I'm not confident about the prospects there.

Who'd've thunk 4 years ago that the 9th could ever be considered in some matters as more conservative than the SC?

Nearly Five Million Americans Became Gun Owners in First Half of 2020

by Stephen Gutowski

 

Original Article

 

Nearly five million Americans became first-time gun owners in 2020, according to a new report. The National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF), the gun industry's trade group, estimates that 17.1 million guns have been sold between January and August with 4.84 million Americans purchasing their first guns. The sales—especially to new owners—represent a significant shift in American attitudes on gun ownership. "This is a tectonic shift in the firearm and ammunition industry marketplace and complete transformation of today’s gun-owning community," Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF senior vice president and general counsel, said in a statement.

Which types of firearms are most commonly used in gun murders in the U.S.?

In 2017, handguns were involved in the majority (64%) of the 10,982 U.S. gun murders and non-negligent manslaughters for which data is available, according to the FBI. Rifles – the category that includes many guns that are sometimes referred to as “assault weapons”– were involved in 4%. Shotguns were involved in 2%. The remainder of gun homicides and non-negligent manslaughters (30%) involved firearms that were classified as “other guns or type not stated.”

what's not to understand?

 

The more people that have guns, the greater the chances that more people will be killed by guns.

 

Just because people have a right to carry a gun does not mean that they should.

 

Just because people can carry guns doesn't mean they should . If you have a gun get familiar with it you should practice with it to know how to use it to know what to expect yet some people just buy them to say they have them .

 

Then there are the dum asses that carry them to let every one else know they have them you will be first on the list to be robbed and your gun stolen (a acquaintance of mine did this)  because usually they just want to show off and don't have a clue !
