Last edited Sat Jul 28, 2012, 03:10 AM - Edit history (1)

If a criminal wants to attack and kill, rob, rape or beat a citizen, he will be able to do it with the knowledge that his victim will not be legally armed. The criminal's safety will be purchased with the blood of his victims.

This is similar to the case under discussion. If the police had been unarmed, he easily could have been killed, and quite possibly the woman he was giving a ride to.

And after all, given a choice between a dead police officer and woman and a dead attacker, wouldn't we all prefer that the criminal attacker survive? Given a choice between a dead schoolteacher or secretary and a dead mugger, wouldn't we all prefer the mugger survive?

This is one of the moral principles of gun control—at least your version of it—protect the attackers of decent folks at all cost. If necessary, sacrifice the lives of the intended victims, be they police officers or citizens, but protect the criminal.

A man was apparently caught by a rival gang member who shot him in the head as he tagged a wall on 22nd Place, just west of California Avenue early Saturday morning, according to police.

The man, one of at least seven people shot overnight, was in extremely critical condition when taken to Mount Sinai Hospital a few blocks north on California Avenue. An evidence technician recovered a can of black paint that fell under a car and the smell of the paint lingered on the wall Saturday morning.

The stretch of 22nd Place between California Avenue and Marshall Boulevard is the territory of one gang, neighbors said. West of Marshall is another gang, and east of California is the turf of a third gang. The graffiti on the wall indicated its writer was disrespecting two of the gangs on both sides.

Two neighbors stood outside the crime scene, both awakened by the sound of four or five gunshots ...

HOUSTON – A vehicle crashed into an AT&T store early Friday morning after the driver was shot while fleeing the scene of a bar fight, investigators said.

Harris County deputies were called to the store at Louetta and Kuykendahl around 1:40 a.m. While they were en route, they got additional calls indicating the crash was related to a shooting at the Lord Loudon Pub in the 4600 block of Louetta.

When deputies got to the AT&T store, they found a silver Hyundai had crashed through the front window.

The driver, later identified as 24-year-old Ross Warax, was dead behind the wheel. Deputies said he'd suffered a single gunshot wound ...

Bar fight turns deadly in NW Harris County

... Warax’s girlfriend suffered non-life threatening injuries from the crash, and was transported by EMS to a local hospital.

Shortly before the call at Louetta at Kuykendahl was received, a Precinct #4 Deputy Constable was checking an alarm near Sorrel Ridge and Louetta, when he heard a vehicle spin its tires, followed by several gunshots. The deputy located the vehicle in the 17900 block of Sorrel Ridge, where he conducted a traffic stop. The driver, Jamal Turner, was detained and a handgun was recovered. Turner was released to Homicide Investigators at the scene on Louetta. Turner stated he was involved in a disturbance at the bar and admitted to shooting at Warax’s vehicle.

While deputies were on the scene of Louetta at Kuykendahl, a bar employee drove up to the scene.

On Friday, 33-year-old Aaron Bise was celebrating his birthday with a co-worker at Bear’s Restaurant in Slidell; the following day he fired two rounds from a .357 revolver that killed 31-year-old Christopher Joseph Miller.

Those who were close to Bise, along with the police, are stating the story leading up to Saturday’s homicide is complicated—mostly stemming from “an ongoing feud over a female,” whose name is Jennifer. Her full name is being withheld in order to protect the family’s identity.

Around 1 p.m. Saturday, Aaron Bise was on his way to drop off his girlfriend—who is still legally married to Miller but living separately—at her car, which was parked at a daiquiri shop off Gause Boulevard, near Ruby Tuesday and the across from the RaceTrac gas station, the scene of the homicide.

humans cause those discharges for a reason. By concentrating on guns, you are ignoring most domestic abuse where the man kills the woman. Women tend to shoot, mostly in defense.

79. actually they are not

for decongestants:
can buy at 18
can legally buy for someone else
I can buy without background check
I can buy in any state or territory
I can put it in my pocket without violating any laws
I can buy two packages without the feds knowing about it
felons may posses

for handguns from a federally licensed dealer:
Must be 21
felony to buy for someone else
must go through background check
probably violate state law by putting it in my pocket
ATF is notified if I buy more than one in the same week
Can only buy in my state of residence (same applies to private sale)
felon in possession is a mandatory min of five years in Club Fed

Those are the federal laws, your state probably has more. BTW, meth causes greater harm to society.

[MannyGoldstein]

80. Did I write "handgun"?

And what about gun shows?

[gejohnston]

82. 18 for long guns

beyond that, federal laws are the same. Oh yeah, there was that stupid mailing pistol act that Republicans passed and Harding signed in 1927. While the law is still on the books, Nixon made it moot when he created USPS form the Post Office.

All federal and state laws must be followed at gun shows, many of the dealers there are FFLs, and must do background checks. Some states require private sellers to pay an FFL to do back ground check. Under federal law, a private seller is prohibited from doing the background check, that is why "gun show loophole" is a misnomer. Some promoters do it voluntarily and create a mechanism to do it. Cops tend to hang out at gun shows. According to the ATF, criminals rarely buy them at gun shows.

An FFL, in case you don't know, is a Federal Firearms License holder, which is a dealer's license.

Chafee says the owner saw a van pull up and three men he didn't know came up and started banging and kicking at his door.

Chafee says the man feared for his life and got a gun.

He opened the door and started firing, hitting two of the suspects.

The three people ran back to the van and drove off.

A 15-year-old girl described as "a completely innocent bystander" was shot in Pine Hills Sunday evening while riding home from church with her parents, the Orange County Sheriff's Office reported.

Sheriff's spokeswoman Jane Watrel said the girl was sitting in the back seat of her parents' minivan as they drove west on North Lane shortly before 6:30 p.m. The family had been celebrating the mother's birthday by attending church, Watrel said. The girl's father, who was driving, heard shots coming from two vehicles that approached the van at a high rate of speed — a charcoal-colored Chevy Equinox SUV and a tan sedan.

The father immediately turned onto N. Powers Drive to get out of the way but then looked back to see his van's rear window shattered and his daughter slumped over.

Watrel would not say where the girl had been shot, and the victim's name has not been released. Several news reports said she was shot in the head ...

Woman accused of killing boyfriend to be released from jail
By VICTOR A. PATTON - [email protected]

A 20-year-old woman accused of shooting her boyfriend to death is scheduled to be released from jail, after prosecutors said Wednesday they're not filing charges against her -- at least for now.

Grace Azevedo called 911 around 11 p.m. Saturday, saying she'd shot 27-year-old Roberto Azevedo at an El Nido mobile home park in the 10000 block of South Highway 59, just south of El Nido Road.

Chief Deputy District Attorney Rob Carroll said although the investigation into the case isn't over, the killing may have been committed in self defense. "We agree with the sheriff detectives that there are significant domestic violence issues, as well as self defense issues that need to be investigated," Carroll said ...

At one point, witnesses heard Guerrero say “he was going to come back with his AK and shoot up the place,” and then they heard gunshots, police said. Guerrero was shot twice and collapsed on the sidewalk, police said ...

In a 2010 declaration filed by the city attorney's office, police Officer Joshua Kumli described Glaspie and Daniels as being members of the Towerside street gang. The declaration was filed as part of a request for a court injunction, which was granted in February 2011, to keep gang members from associating with each other.

FERRON, Emery County — The Emery County Sheriff's Office is releasing very little information about a weekend shooting that left one woman dead.

But the woman's mother and brother had plenty to say Tuesday. They claim detectives are keeping them in the dark about their investigation, and they are questioning the alleged circumstances surrounding the death of their daughter and sister.

A'Lisa Joy Weston, 22, was shot once in the chest about 10:30 p.m. Saturday at the Ferron home of Randy John Behling, according to Emery County Sheriff's Capt. Kyle Ekker.

"We have the 911 call, and (Behling) alleged that (Weston) shot herself," Ekker said.

Still, Emery County prosecutors on Monday charged Behling in 7th District Court with manslaughter, a second-degree felony. He also faces four counts of reckless endangerment, a class A misdemeanor, and carrying a dangerous weapon while under the influence of alcohol, a class B misdemeanor ...

Shooting leaves county woman dead

On July 28 a shooting occurred in Ferron leaving A'Lisa Joy Weston, 22, dead. Emery County Sheriff Greg Funk said, "This tragedy is going to affect the community and the two families involved. We have sent a number of items out for testing. I cannot comment until we have the results of these tests back which could take weeks. There were blood draws taken, forensic evidence and other items sent for testing. Until the results come back we aren't going to speculate on what has transpired. We know that two people were involved. There was one gun shot at the residence in Ferron. A 911 call came in that said there had been a gunshot. Deputy Tyson Huntington immediately responded with back-up by myself and Capt. Kyle Ekker. Det. John Barnett investigated the scene.

HUNTINGTON, W. Va. — A shooting and subsequent standoff interrupted life for residents in a four-block section of 10th Avenue in Huntington.

It all started about 8 a.m. Tuesday when authorities received word of a shooting near 8th Street and 10th Avenue. Investigators believe an argument between two men led to gunfire as they and a couple of others rode through the area in the same vehicle.

Detectives quickly identified Phillip Gregory Johnson as their lead suspect. Further investigating linked the 27-year-old to a residence at 1138 10th Ave.

The standoff ended without incident as Johnson reached out to multiple friends, including one woman who worked with a police lieutenant to ensure a peaceful resolution ...

The 51-year-old Crotzer was compensated by the state more than $1 million after DNA evidence and other information convinced prosecutors that he didn't commit the rape. He has since been an advocate for wrongfully convicted inmates ...

502. Of the almost 600 deaths and 2000 injuries involving guns that occur on average each week....

....how come you only documented less than 400?



Do you think it was a below average week?

Did news agencies not report all of them?

Did you not try hard enough?



More seriously, I think we're all aware of the prevalence of violence involving guns regardless if you want more gun control, less gun control, or want gun control to stay the same.

Carry on. I look forward to next week's update.
