This act of public courage, and the determination to protect our Constitutional rights, could prove to be a real bond between Combs and his girl.

From the article

“I had no problem with him having the gun,” Birmingham Police Officer Rebecca Springer testified.
“If he looked 32 (years old) he would have enjoyed the night.”

Since he did provide ID.. why exactly was he charged if the above was true ?

...could prove to be a real bond between Combs and his girl...

...and every constitution loving American.

Let me be the first to say my prediction that the court would fall back to support the stop based on the officer’s assertion that he had a duty to determine Mr. Combs’ age was wrong. It appears Mr. Combs acquitted himself very well even when aggressively confronted by the police. I am very pleased that the judge saw through that ploy and dismissed the only charge that might have given the prosecution traction with a potentially and a “young looking” Defendant. skeptical jury.

I wonder how long it will be before he gets his rifle back.

He’s half way home. In a court room his attorney and the jury have established he was within his Constitutional right. Next, he needs to sue those who drug him into that court room and establish that they were wrong.

I like news that includes good news.

Sue for wrongful arrest. In Virginia it’s good for about 16K.

Not guilty verdict for NOT breaking the law is NEWS?

[Darren McCarty]

This should have never gone to trial. The City of Birmingham should get their checkbooks ready if Combs wants to go after them.

The pair had about 90 minutes to kill before the film began, and Combs decided to open carry his rifle, which he recently received as a gift from his brother.

Reporters nowadays, sheesh!
