Obama Directed FBI to Purge NICS (Gun Background Check Database) of Names of 500,000 Fugitives
Fugitives can't buy guns, at least as long as they're fugitives.
For some reason, the generally anti-gun Obama chose to define "fugitive" in a narrow way, and thus struck the names of 500,000 fugitives -- now no longer defined as fugitives -- from the NICS database.he Justice Department under Barack Obama directed the FBI to drop more than 500,000 names of fugitives with outstanding arrest warrants from the National Instant Criminal Background Check System, acting FBI deputy director David Bowdich testified Wednesday. Fugitives from justice are barred from buying a firearm under federal law. But what is a fugitive from justice? That definition has been under debate by the FBI and the ATF. According to The Washington Post, the FBI considered any person with an outstanding arrest warrant to be a fugitive. On the other hand, the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives defined a fugitive as someone who has an outstanding arrest warrant and has crossed state lines. That disagreement was settled at the end of Obama's second term, when the Justice Department's Office of Legal Counsel sided with the ATF's interpretation.I don't see this as nefarious, and it's possible the legislative context here supports the more restrictive definition better than the more expansive one. However, it does seem that someone with an outstanding arrest warrant shouldn't be able to buy a gun until his status is cleared. He might show up for a hearing and merely get a fine, or plead to a misdemeanor, or have charges dismissed. Or, he could be arraigned and tried on criminal charges. But that does seem like the sort of thing that should keep you from getting a gun at least until you show up in court to contest the warrant. Add this to the "Promise" program, where Obama bullied schools into agreeing to not call the cops on dangerous students, to keep them free of the arrest record they probably earned (and, consequently -- free to buy guns), and what you have is a NICS background check system that should work very well in theory, but is kept from working properly by Obama's decisions. Which is then used as an argument as to why we need to Ban All The Guns. Well, maybe if you weren't sabotaging the system already in place, we'd keep guns out of the hands of more criminals, Guys.

If anyone else had done this it would be a felony. Of course there would have to be an honest DOJ to charge them. And the Republocrat congress gave Obama free reign to do anything he wanted.

Based on the way the tower on the campus side is leaning toward the road, It looks to me like the support on the canal side failed toward the water, and pulled everything over with it.
I would place early bets on a connection failure. A highly loaded concrete connection can "creep" to failure--that is, it can support the load the moment that it is applied, but if the stresses are high enough the concrete will creep (fairly rapidly for concrete) to the point of fracture and sudden failure.

1. "Fugitive" = criminal
2. "Criminal" = disproportionately black
3. Denying guns to fugitives = no guns for blacks
This is not meant to be racist but rather a possible view into the Obama admin's thinking.

Consider if you never saw the ticket, would you pay it?
Now 14 days go by, the fine doubles, but you still don't know about it. 28 days go by, the fine doubles again and a warrant for your arrest is issued because you didn't enter a not guilty plea at the court date you didn't know about.
Now you're a fugitive, by the precise definition of the term.

First of all, pretty much everyone crosses state lines all the time, just in the normal course of living.
Secondly, since we don't require papers to cross state borders hwo the hell could the ATF even know something like that? It seems mega-retarded.
Thirdly, they're fugitives! No one knows where the hell they are. No one officially, at least.

I've read that when the Red Chinese came to power they closed down the teaching of kung fu, and murdered the teachers of it, because they didn't want citizens (inmates?) to be able to get uppity. Hmmm.
This is one reason kung fu and shit spread quickly to the West at that time, as its practitioners fled.
(Only later did the Reds relent, when they realized the tourist value of kung fu, which they then allowed to be taught but under severe restrictions.)

Incidentally, it also shows just how corrupt and fucked up the Mexican Government is. Because a legit government would have reacted in ways that put a lot of blood on the killing floor.
And fuck Obama and Holder for putting the US in the position where a pissant shithole country like Mexico would have been even marginally justified in killing Americans.

I am in the camp of hey, let's draft an omnibus bill repassing all of the gun laws already on the books and watch the freak out when people discover what the laws are already.
This will also have the added benefit of making there be a central listing of what all those laws are.
I've noticed the idiotic getting a gun should be as difficult as getting an abortion folderol going around again. This proves that the people pushing that position know nothing of abortion regulations and gun regulations.

And the way they get around the clearly un-Constitutional and illegal scheme of photo ticketing is to make them mere fines, not moving violations (which are against drivers and for which the cops have to stop the vehicle and issue THE DRIVER the ticket).
The fact is, if photo tickets were in any way legal cops would have been issuing them from their cars parked on the side of the road for decades, never bothering to stop any cars, get out or do any of that pain-in-the-ass stuff. ALl they had to do was look at the license plate, write down the alleged violation, and ship a ticket off to the owner. But they didn't ... because everyone knew that such shit was ridiculously illegal.

Yes, but then we wouldn't have marches and reasons tighten laws to take guns away from law-abiding citizens. We need the criminals to do the crimes, bcz the law abiding citizens won't.
I'm not a conspiracy theorist, and I don't want to believe people would think in such an evil manner, but people can rationalize any means to reach their end purpose, if they have decided their end purpose is righteous.
I do not believe they would do it directly, like a school shooting. But indirectly? Like purging a database so criminals are out there and they happen to use guns and then that gices us a chance to tighten gun laws on everyone?
Even yesterday I would have said no way. Today, I say maybe. When I look at all the crap we are finding out Obama did...he is capable of pretty much anything to get what he wants. And he desperately wanted gun control and his own civilian army.
So now I wonder if he considered a workaround. An indirect way to get there.
Somebody tell me if I've gone too far in my thinking. I don't want to believe it. But I never would have believed an FBI coup or all the other crap. So now I'm considering things I never considered before.

This is truth.
All you have to do is look to NJ as model.
There was a study of gun related crimes being committed by gang bangers and that ilk, that have harsh penalties, being either dropped or ridiculously bargained down and people like the guy caught with a functioning replica handgun in his glove conpartment, which he told the cop about when he was stopped for a traffic infraction getting the book thrown at him, possibly 25 year sentence, necessitating Governor Christie having to pardon him.
Or the story of the PA security guard forgetting she had her PA legal concealed carry firearm when she went over the border into NJ, stopped for some traffic infraction facing the same fate, and having Christie pardon her.
This is the pattern, excuse hard criminals who are likely to repeat and cause mayhem and going hammer tongs after otherwise law abiding citizens.
This is bullshit that must be exposed and fought.

I don't buy that one bit. You can fail the NICS check for being late on child support, I believe, and that has nothing to do with interstate anything.
The ATF does tons of shit that has nothing to do with any interstate anything. They never gave a shit about that.
Clearly, this change was Barky just trying to fvck things up as much as he could before leaving office. It's just like the states that issue illegals drivers licenses and then legislate that all records of those issuances must be destroyed so that Trump couldn't use those records to find the illegals.
Posted by: ThePrimordialOrderedPair at March 15, 2018 04:03 PM (8gDQu)
27 OT but current:
Based on the way the tower on the campus side is leaning toward the road, It looks to me like the support on the canal side failed toward the water, and pulled everything over with it.
I would place early bets on a connection failure. A highly loaded concrete connection can "creep" to failure--that is, it can support the load the moment that it is applied, but if the stresses are high enough the concrete will creep (fairly rapidly for concrete) to the point of fracture and sudden failure."
NPR is reporting this was to be a cable-support structure (that usually means a system supporting it above). This wasn't installed yet, so the bridge was self-supporting. There probably wasn't enough steel through the cross-section to allow that to happen.
They probably should have had some temporary columns installed until a true cable-system was installed, but they didn't. So if cracked in the middle and failed under it's own weight.

The other person would start to mimic, because people naturally mimic all the time, especially subconsciously. BAM! Pulled over for failure to maintain their lane.

So when things go wrong, it is always something like Pres. Bush telling the governor not to evacuate, or preventing the state national guard from acting.
So when things go wrong, rather than blame the reality that government is just not going to give a shit about the people unless they have to, they blame the Repububs for sabotaging things.
But more and more it seems to me the opposite. part of the alinskyite method of creating a crisis.

In all seriousness ... you've got to have a plan to turn your investments into cash totes quick - and an idea of how to hit the road.
I do. I can get into cash in seventy-two hours, less the house. Surely I can see what's coming three days out - and move accordingly.
Everybody around here "exhaled" too damn hard when Trump won. I'm sticking by the other prediction I made, that plenty called me crazy for ... Trump doesn't serve out his term. The Establishment GOP is going to side with Democrats to impeach his ass.
And then the Feds are going to get bolder. With more assistance from Local Law Enforcement ... which many here supported militarizing. And still do.
And if that's not enough ... the Military itself.

No they established he did reach into the passenger window but no contact made with the defendant. And the defendant followed the NFL player after the NFL player was driving like an idiot and almost causing a wreck. Yeah he should have broke off and not followed him off the exit but he did. Can't prove it but he got 30 years because the jury and judge considered it a racist shooting.

Jesus said "best worry about your own ass" in modern jargon. Repent now or worse is coming."
That's a very good point and something even a lot of Christians miss. It was obviously important, since Jesus repeated it a number of times, another time when the disciples are arguing about who would be the greatest, or who would live the longest. (the disciples love to get into stupid arguments that sound just like things we'd do)
Jesus always says words to the effect of - "Quit worrying about the fate of other people, that is not your problem! YOU are what you need to be taking care of!!!"

Look, there are people who have warrants because they failed to appear in court for traffic tickets. Not all of them should be in the FBI's crosshairs (especially now, since the agency has basically gone rogue).
Whether it's crossing state lines, or it's the level of offense (felony warrants might be a good place to start), I'm all for the FBI not even having the damned information in the first place.

Despite 2000 years of Christianity, people still misunderstand that. First, death isn't necessarily an objective evil to God, especially for those baptized and secondly, "misfortune" isn't about your sin. The jews of the time, however, thought that misfortune and disease were due to the wages of sin of those affected. My mother still thinks God punishes you in this life. I keep trying to explain that you aren't punished for unrelated sin, but reality will punish you for related sin.

Uh, okay, but I'm not sure what application you guys are going for with this.
We are also told to pray for our country, because our fate is tied to our country's fate.
We are told to grieve with those who grieve.
I must be reading what you guys wrote wrong...bcz it seemed like it was saying the bible says "don't give a shit" about anyone but yourself. Which is totally not "Love thy neighbor as thyself".
I'm not expert, but it was a really confusing few posts. My limited exposure to biblical teaching was about focusing on your own sin and how you led your life before worrying about everyone else's. But not to the exclusion of everyone else. And also, not to make everything a comparison....who is better than whom (with the disciples fighting).
Sorry, just felt the need to put things in some perspective.

But here's why his self defense charges didn't stand up - the shooter was actually chasing McKnight, when there was no reason to; they both were acting out and yelling, so this is equivalent to a bar fight where both participants are at fault; and the man he shot was unarmed, and on the passenger side of the vehicle where he couldn't actually reach the shooter.
It's the same case as when somebody kills somebody else in a stupid bar fight. You didn't have to be there, and you didn't have to kill him. You gonna do hard time.

We should have clarified, Gumdrop - those statements by Jesus come up whenever the disciples start wondering about things that are God's decisions and judgments, not theirs. For example, did the men in the tower die because they were guilty of something? Answer, shut up, fools, you shouldn't even be asking that question. Not your judgement to make. Are those people over there gonna go to heaven? Be quiet, and make sure YOU work on your own salvation.
Help the poor, care for the sick, but making judgments about the state of their souls and their fates are decision way above our pay grade.

yeah, it looks like two bridges,one over the road, and the other over the canal, but then they have that cable stay as extra support?
This is odd. maybe the tower is only needed for full pedestrian load.
I was surprised not to see a large truck underneath. Usually when this kind of thing happens it is because it was hit by a tuck.
No wind, no truck,... maybe construction screw up, or maybe bad design.
Also, I wonder how old the concrete is in the trusses.

If you don't pay traffic tickets eventually you'll get an arrest warrant issued for it. If you don't know about it or ignore it, next time you get pulled over in that city you'll get hooked up. Technically, you are a fugitive until you clear that up.

Judging from their lack of interest in prosecuting armed criminals, Democrats have no problems with criminals getting guns, probably because they'll still vote Democrat. It's armed Republicans they're really trying to disarm, especially the law-abiding ones.
