As far as I can tell, none. If the cops gave the son's guns back to the father, there would be no legal reason why he couldn't give them back to his son.

I've been looking and can't find the full video that was on social media yesterday. Here is a part of it: https://www.theleafchronicle.com/story/news/columnists/david-waters/2018/04/23/waters-waffle-house-hero-role-model-lawmakers/542189002/ In the full video, he talks about how he wasn't trying to be a hero, that he was just trying to save his own life. He's so genuine that it just resonated with me. If I happen to find a clip of it, I'll...

Have you all watched the interview with Mr. Shaw? He's about as real as it gets.

Do you know the Adnon Syed story?

Whose conviction? Adnon Syed?

Yes! I'll have to check those out, too. Love him. I could listen to his voice for hours.

I love True Crime podcasts. True Crime Garage is great. My current favorite is a Best Case Worst Case. The hosts are former FBI agents and prosecutors. One of them is a writer on Criminal Minds.

Jumper_Dad has already said this once, but let me repeat: Keep threads on topic.

I'm glad that people like Rosa Parks didn't follow that advice.

Agreed. How terrible for the families of these officers.

I was referring to posters here, but that is not a good look for the commissioner.

I've read the entire thread, too, though it's been over a couple of days. I don't remember anyone blaming the police. I know some asked question. Perhaps I'm not remembering correctly. It seems to me that most are questioning Starbucks and/or the employee(s).

I agree entirely. oldgrappler has shown that you can listen to someone else's perspective and see things that change your mind. You have to be willing to truly hear and be willing to change. Best post in a long, long time!

Is anyone faulting the police in this instance?

What are some of the negatives that don't also exist for cigarettes and alcohol?

I agree. It's hard to know the intent in this situation, to REALLY know if it was profiling.

Where did you read that? Everything that I've read, including this article, says that they were meeting someone there. That person, Mr. Yaffe, showed up a few minutes after the arrest started.

Absolutely in favor of legalization. I used to be totally against it until I actually did the research on it when teaching a unit on drugs in Forensic Science. My eyes were very much opened.

He is as good of a person as he is a coach. He also is in charge of our FCA and sends a motivational scripture out to teachers that ask to receive one once a week.
