Yep.
But wasn’t it recently insinuated (Superbowl) that it is Halftime (in Detroit) and that it is up to us to get the job of recovery done???
I mean it WAS Mr. Clint Eastwood who said it at the behest of the U.S. Government, Administration, Chamber of Commerce and the City of Detroit where they said it was filmed...
But it was not really filmed in Detroit, too dangerous...they used New Orleans and L.A. for the dark seedy looking streets in the PSA...
Now these ordinary citizens taking the law into their own hands, now thats just plain over the top...We can’t have them doing the job the police up there can’t do by themselves...Geesh what are these people thinking!!!
Ohhhh wait, I forgot to add...
/sarc
There, I feel better now...Whew, that was a close one!!!
I think Joe Horn could give her some pointers...
By her stating that she pans on taking one out is not a premeditated act...She is making a declarative statement that she is intending to defend herself when the time comes that someone else makes an incorrect assumption and commits a criminal act against her, that she will defend herself within the confines of the law...
Making a statement like that is not a crime, nor will it be (they will try to make it germaine to any homicide she is involve with), but it will not stand, that will be successfully objected to if attempted to be entered into the court record...
She also seems like a woman who will not just shoot through the door either...If she went out and petitioned for a permit, then she sounds like someone who is jumping through the hoops to cover all her bases...Good for her...
Boy, I clicked on that link, and I have to say they need to do a speel cheek on that webpage...How embarrasing...
And they have a maritime division, including paddles!!! hehehe
I’m sorry, but those folks look like a bunch of “tacticool” wannabes...Looking to feel the “jazz” again...If they ever had it before...
If I need help getting people off my property, as they advertise they can...Then I am not living in the right place, or I am a weenie...
Doesn’t take much imagination when you have facts to back you up.
Which city was first in per capita murders? I’d wager it’s Memphis. And it’s coming soon to all of our towns, not just cities.
A week or so after Katrina I saw a bunch of New York cop cars in a convoy in Virginia headed north. I asked one of them on the C.B what was going on and he said they’d been to New Orleans. He said it was a war zone.
A few days later I saw the same thing in New Mexico. Cops headed home from New Orleans. I didn’t see any of this on the news coverage.
I recall the Joke - when they used to ask when you de-planed if you had a fire arm and if you said no they handed you one. This is not only in Detroit - heck in Yuma we have places where the law does not go unless they absolutly have to. I recall neighbor hood watch while I was in Lancaster and we had dope houses in the hood. We finally drove them out - it took a few folks with shootguns since the police did nothing. If they know they will not get caught and you are harmless then they take over. Good for those that fight back.
What makes you think that the courts in Detroit are so much better than the police in Detroit? What makes you think that a Detroit public defender would have the wit to object?
That's because the state of Michigan uses taxpayer money to provide a refundable tax credit amounting to 40% of film production expenses in the state. Spend $100,000, get a check for $40,000 minus MBT.
True...There are no guarantees in any court of law these days...You get a roll of the dice with those public defenders, you are right about that...
But if you get your own attorney, then the odds may be a little more in your favor, especially if it is one that understands the issue...
I think it is prudent to pre-pay for legal defense if you carry a firearm permitted (if required in that state) or if it isn’t required to carry on a permit...
Most of those firms give you a card to hand to the police (investigators) explaining that this client is not required to say anything (other than establish ID) to them till they arrive for any questioning...
I think in this day and age it is a good thing to have legal representation for any gun related incidents, regardless of your location...
I pay about $130 a year for it...And it is all the way through the process...
