California police frowning on self-defense, want gun owners to simply comply with robbers | |
| Alufiend User ID: 28365032  United States11/30/2012 07:33 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | In the meantime, the police are giving gun owners a piece of their mind. Albert Morales, the San Jose Police spokesman, said, "We don't recommend (drawing a gun or firing). We would have preferred that they just go ahead and comply with the request or demands of the robbers. Again they were after material items that could be replaced and again our biggest fear is that somebody would have gotten hurt, injured and possibly even died." Quoting: Laura Bow More at [link to www.guns.com] Better to call the police and take a chance on being mistaken for a suspect and shot, or killed in the crossfire. what are you talking about. here in cali, if you call police, there is a greater chance of getting shot or tazed. protect yourself. |

| BRIEF User ID: 28454476 United States12/02/2012 10:44 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Fuck you, I've had to defend myself using my pistol...on several occasions in fact. against chipminks?  No, one was two guys that tried to run me off the road and then followed me, wanting me to lead them to my home, so I had to confront them on the side of the road where they told me they had a gun... Another, well several, were people threatening me in my office... I never forgive and I never forget I am a licensed firearm holder. I will, under protection of law, use lethal force if attacked.  |

Well, maybe not. San Jose police are giving one gun owner a stern tsk-tsk after she defended her property from a pair of armed thieves. Quoting: Laura Bow According to ABC Local 7 News, a pair of thieves wearing masks and hooded sweatshirts burst into a San Jose jewelry store at 10:15 a.m. on Monday. At least one of the would-be thieves was armed. The thieves probably thought that they were going to make off with a bag full of bling, but instead they nearly caught a bullet. The store owner, who was reportedly a woman, drew a pistol and leveled it at the two would-be thieves. She fired at least one shot but did not strike either of them – it is unclear whether that was a warning shot or if she simply missed. ...

They are saying that things will all go smoothly and "nobody will get hurt" if they complied..but what if that woman didn't have a gun and they decided after they got the jewelry to rape her or worse?! So stupid to assume they wouldn't do anything. |

Falling down is a part of life, getting back up is living. ~ Life is about choices, you get to make them each and every day of your life. ~ Capitalization is the difference between helping your Uncle Jack off a horse and helping your uncle jack off a horse.~ Only in America... do we use the word 'politics' to describe the process so well: 'Poloi' in Greek meaning 'many' and 'tics' meaning 'bloodsucking creatures'.~ “When a government is dependent for money upon the bankers, they and not the government leaders control the nation. This is because the hand that gives is above the hand that takes. Financiers are without patriotism and without decency.” If you're not a liberal at twenty you have no heart, if you're not a conservative at forty you have no brain. Winston Churchill |

'Tis the business of little minds to shrink; but he whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves his conduct, will pursue his principles unto death." Thomas Paine, The American Crisis, No. 1, December 19, 1776 "Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom, must, like men, undergo the fatigues of supporting it." Thomas Paine, The American Crisis, No. 4, September 11, 1777 "I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. Already they have raised up a monied aristocracy that has set the government at defiance. The issuing power (of money) should be taken away from the banks and restored to the people to whom it properly belongs." -- Thomas Jefferson, U.S. President. "A majority of the people of the United States have lived all of their lives under emergency rule. For 40 years, [79 years now in 2012] freedoms and governmental procedures guaranteed by the Constitution have in varying degrees been abridged by laws brought into force by statutes of national emergency." |
