3. Wow. That is some bullshit...
Edited on Thu Sep-17-09 03:37 PM by Caliman73
This raises way more questions than just the County's employment practices. To frame this, I disclose that I own firearms and support the right of responsible, law respecting people to do so. Given this, again I say, this is some bullshit!!

How was this guy in jail for less than half a year, then given a slap on the wrist suspended sentence for firing a gun into an occupied car? How the fuck does the legal system drop other felony charges and plea him down to this especially since he had prior arrests for firearms related crimes? How is this guy legally owning, much less carrying a firearm?

This person should be behind bars for a long, long time. What is to stop him from doing this type of stuff again> I mean he never really receives any kind of consequence. If he gets fired by the County, he is just going to think the County is in the wrong because he is a free man. This is why firearms laws do not work to stop firearms related crimes. When someone gets caught, the legal system pleas them down and sends them on their merry way. Meanwhile the throw the book at someone with a couple of ounces of marijuana. Just ridiculous!!
