Forston was completely entitled in law to do so (if the second amendment is actually law). He didn't threaten anyone, and he had the legal right to keep and bear that gun.
Please cite the relevant portion of Florida law that says that you may answer the door for police officers holding a gun.
It's part of the Constitution. All constitutional rights have limitations, set forth by federal and state laws. If a legislature overreaches and passes an unconstitutional law there is judicial review. But it's silly to say that just because 2nd Amendment exists, you may hold a gun in any situation.
I would say that answering the door with a gun is threatening per se. Who does that?
In the video above,
Depends on your neighborhood.
I noticed that you summarily ignored my point that a worse thing (shot while holding a game controller) happened to a white teen, and that therefore you making this shooting all about race is invalid.
That is not how courts have interpreted the 2nd Amendment (or any of the constitutional provisions for that matter). But I guess the opinion of some random Bruce outweighs all that?
What lady? Is there another video?
Are you fucking serious? Try this - what was the guy doing that was explicitly illegal? And this is Florida, land of the fuckwits. I suspect cops get greeted with citizens carrying guns All. The. Time. It's just that this one particular time it ended with a fatality. I don't know why this time it was different, maybe you could enlighten us.
In the whole body cam the police spoke to a woman before he went up to the apartment. I can't find it now. It was 4 min. long.
What does your entirely invented ratio have to do with anything?
Please provided evidence that people answer the door "All. The. Time." with guns when cops come knocking.
That was exactly the thought about your game controller example.
It's not invented.
Doesn’t matter.
So a 17 year old white teen is a "man" now?
Just because they were black does not mean that they were shot because of racism. What were they doing? Why were they shot? Almost all police shootings are justified and vast majority involve armed perps. You can't just assume racism. You have to show that a particular case involved racism.
No. You are wrong. Bilby assumed that the shooting was racially motivated.
This is the post I was replying to.
No I do not think there is "zero racism". Police are human, and there are going to be racists among them - including anti-white racists btw. But one should not assume racism just because a black man was shot this time.
