Default Loons

Wow this afternoon in Brevard County at meritt island. Meritt Square had an issue where the Sherrif office had to put three rounds in a person that refused their commands. Had some sort of pipe. Happen around 1 pm. The story on face book was oh my a shooting in a mall Get rid of the Guns on and on . When the real story came out not a peep from all the anti folks.

You mean they didn't immediately change their tune to "Get rid of pipes"? Well, no one can ever say the loons are consistent. Logic isn't their strong suit either.

Somehow it just doesn't seem right to besmirch the character of this noble bird by using his name to describe the folks you are refering to.



We could call them "bird brains", but that wouldn't be fair to all the other species of birds either!!

Best Regards, Les

Possession of a pipe is a misdemeanor.

Trust me.

Very true it turned out to be a younger female S.O. officer that took the guy down. The guy picture. Was all you need to see to get full picture. A construction worker the mall hired from out of state. He had a big wrap sheet .Looks like he went nuts outside mall with fence pipe. When S.O. got on scene. He charged the. Officer with pipe. She took um down. Wish I was better at computer stuff would send a link.As bad ad Brevard needs jobs they hire out of state. Thats a big issue .

If this was truly a pipe, then we need some common sense laws that ban all threaded pipe that is longer than 4" and greater than 1/2" ID. If this was a crack pipe, then we should create some laws that make it illegal to possess and use crack cocaine. While we are at it we should also come up with some laws that make it illegal to assault and/or murder a person.

That should fix all of this nonsense!

According to the news reports, the "shootee" was swinging a fence post or pipe, while shouting at people to stay away from him.

The man's behavior suggests there may have been a meth pipe involved, as well.

Man, for a minute there, I thought I was going to have to give up the briars and meerschaums and lay off the home plumbing projects.

WHEW! Dodged a bullet on that one.
