  • But had he been charged with a felony for shooting at people before this incident even took place, he wouldn’t have had his rights anymore already.

    Basically I mean if he shot at people and got charged with a felony and got his guns taken as a result,

    and then beat his GF and got a DV charge banning him from possessing the guns he was already banned from owning,

    and then he sues on the grounds of the DV conviction banning him from having guns,

    even if he wins, he is still barred from having guns because of the previous felony banning him from having guns, which would be separate from the DV.

    Also even if he’s awaiting trial on felony charges, he is still not legally allowed to possess a gun.

    Unless you mean the police or prosecution violated his rights (like the right to counsel) during the original trial for shooting at people non-DV related, and so that case was dismissed, which is a possible explanation for why he got off without a felony for shooting at people. Could be, and that’s another reason to add to the list for “why they shouldn’t violate people’s rights during trial,” because if so that let this dickhead go free.














  • Tbf everyone there was violating curfew. The only one who arguably had a legitimate reason was Rosenbaum, being let out of a mental facility after threatening suicide for being caught touching his GF’s underage son, because the hospital decided to discharge him right into an active riot. One could also argue that none of this would have happened without that, and also none of this would have happened if Rosenbaum hadn’t tried to kill anyone, and that this wouldn’t have happened had the police not shot Jacob Blake for kidnapping kids while armed with a knife, and that this would never have happened had Blake simply not kidnapped any kids or had a knife.

    We could play this game all day, frankly. I lean more towards “Rosenbaum shouldn’t have attacked him screaming I’m going to fucking kill you and this never would have happened,” personally.



  • Well drugs is a revenue generating scheme for them that also lets them overcharge POC with felonies to prevent them from getting guns, that’s by design of course. Drugs should be legal (at least not a felony to posses and treatment rather than prison and idt the treatment should even be compulsory) and violent criminals need to be charged accordingly. It would honestly help a lot more than many other things people want to do like feature bans, who cares what features the violent guy can have on his gun, he shouldn’t have any gun if he’s proven himself a danger.
