This guy posted a video talking about how cops in Philly need to be shot.
"This case will be watched very closely as it moves through the court system. It could set a precedent. Legal experts tell Action News the arrest, based on an internet video, is questionable in terms of First Ammendment Constitutional rights. The D.A. says free speech ends when you incite others to shoot police officers. "
Will be interesting if he can plead the First Amendment and win.
I could also think of a few other excuses they could give as to the production of the video.
One of "things" many of us that carry do not do is go around saying things like:
"I could just shoot him for that."
"Don't make me shoot you."
"I'll kill you."
I hear those lines from lots of people that do not carry. I just never say them because if I do have to defend myself, I don't want a witness saying "Possumboy said he would kill anyone that messed with his children" in court. Some DA may try to say I premeditated it.
At the least, the last thing I want is people to think I'm just looking for a reason to use my gun.
