PhillyKev 0 #27 April 22, 2004 QuoteI think Its pretty safe thing to say that i never want to live in Pennsylvania........EVER!! fucking phyco women and shitty justice system. Did I ever tell you about the psycho I went out with from LA? She wasn't mean to me or anything, but I had to have her commited when her alternate personalities took over. And as far as the justice system, the magazines for my gun would have been enough to lock me up in California. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kelpdiver 2 #31 April 22, 2004 Quote Close....pre-ban standard capacity. You're allowed to possess those in California. You just couldn't buy them after Jan 1, 2001 (or was it 2000?), nor buy them elsewhere and bring them into the state. I'm not sure how they would enforce the latter, other than to suggest you only get them for ones you owned prior to the changeover. OEM ones sure aren't cheap though. Hopefully that will change soon.

Jimbo 0 #32 April 22, 2004 QuoteHe said his main concern was keeping guns out of my hands and that if I agreed to the 18 month order that the charges would be dismissed and there would be no finding of fault against me on my record. If he hadn't shown such an obvious bias and gone out of his way to get her to come to court I wouldn't have agreed but I think I would have lost a hearing since the burden of proof is just a preponderance of the evidence and he was already on her side. So I agreed to it. Goddamn liberal judges. Glad it's over. Sad that you have to give up your guns.

JohnRich 4 #36 April 22, 2004 QuoteQuoteBy "posess" does that mean own or does that mean use? Can you still go to the range and rent a weapon to shoot in the mean time? No I can still go to the range and rent or borrow. The exact order is "Must relenquish all firearms currently owned to the custody of the Philadelphia police department and not purchase any firearms for 18 months." That doesn't sound like the interpretations of "possess" that I've read about in the law. You better be darned sure of that... "Possess" usually means you own them, have them in your home, or even so much as touch a gun, even if it is not your gun. Recall the well-publicized case a few years ago of a female former drug felon, who posed semi-nude in internet photos while holding guns. Some law officer recognized her, and realized that as a felon, she was not allowed to "possess" a gun. For simply posing in a photo holding one, that belonged to her boyfriend, her parole was revoked and she went back to prison. Don't let that happen to you. This bullshit order from the judge, barring you from your own guns, even though you haven't been convicted of anything, sets you up for an even bigger problem, should you violate this order.

sdgregory 0 #39 April 23, 2004 QuoteSo, if I hear you right - you would voluntarily give up your constitutional right to avoid jail? That was how I read it too. Would you give up your right to free speech to avoid jail too? Philly Kev- Dude glad it is coming to a close without you doing jail time but there has got to be soemthing you can do to get the system to work for you. If not remind me never to go to PA again.

PhillyKev 0 #40 April 23, 2004 QuotePhilly Kev- Dude glad it is coming to a close without you doing jail time but there has got to be soemthing you can do to get the system to work for you. Well, I could have not agreed to that and gone forward with the hearing. But my assessment of the judges inclination was that I would have lost anyway. My lawyer basically said that judges don't consider a PFA to be a hardship or adversely affect you so they have a propensity to grant them because it "couldn't hurt". If I had unlimited funds, I'd fight it. But my lawyer fees were getting up there. I had to cut my losses at some point. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

happythoughts 0 #43 April 23, 2004 There's right, there's wrong, and then there's legal. clicky QuoteA lawyer has told a court in the Philippines that drugs found in a rooster's cage belonged by the bird and not his client. Quote Urbina said: "The drugs were in the possession of a rooster and two hens and the law is very clear that whoever is in possession of the drugs is the one who should be accused."

Deuce 1 #46 April 23, 2004 QuoteSo, if I hear you right - you would voluntarily give up your constitutional right to avoid jail? You give up your constitutional right every time you sign a traffic ticket, also called a "Promise to Appear". You forfiet your right to a speedy trial and to be taken forthwith to the magistrate. Where I feel bad for Philly is that he is apparently admitting to something he didn't do in order to eliminate the record of being accused of something he didn't do. I'm going to punch the next person who tells me that "Everything happens for a reason". Life is arbitrary and capricious. Sorry you got bit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
