This was in Florida. The same state that recently arrested a college student for joking about Israel dropping "bon bons" on civilians. The Kvetching J-udge claimed she was threatening to bomb the university.
Are they going to try and Charlie Kirk O'Keefe next?
Why do people still do that (((they))) thing? It's not like AI and other board scrapers aren't fully trained on what it means and even elementary school kids know it's a way of saying "Jews" without actually saying "Jews".
Who exactly is supposed to be fooled by that these days? Especially when you throw in "Kvetching J-udge", just to put a cherry on top.
Excessive symbolism removed. Still impossible not to notice how they are the primary pushers of free speech bans between this, FIFA scanning your social media, and the bon bon incident. No other group gets this special privilege.
The time to fight it is in court. You aren't going to win an argument with police when they are violating your rights. Give them all the rope they need to hang themselves. Then string them up in court.
No, not without a warrant which explains why. No govt has the right to just blindly confiscate your firearms without cause and explanation.
LEO agencies often hide behind legal grey areas in our legal codes to unconstitutionally violate your Rights as a Citizen. They'll go so far as to arrest you and force you to spend tens of thousands of dollars, or more on your defense only to be let go without so much as a warning from a judge. And often, more often than one would think, those same LEO agencies aren't reprimanded by the courts. They rely on total and complete subservience and fear by the citizenry. The worst part is, when it has been challenged in the upper courts, they've allowed that kind of lawfare from the LEOs. It's considered a necessary function of policing.
It's bullshit. The courts know it, the LEOs know it, our politicians know it, and we know it, yet they continue to operate this way, banking on most citizens not fightig it out of fear of being bankrupted or ostracized by the media if we do fight back.
All it takes in this State is a phoned in complaint by a "concerned citizen" for this to happen. That's why it pays to 1) buy as much of your stuff from an independent private citizen as possible, thus bypassing the "requirement" of a registered firearm business having to report your purchase, 2) pay in cash, yet another bypass of the reporting requirement, 3) learn how to produce your own ammo, 4) refuse entry into your domincile or vehicle without a warrant, no matter how long the LEOs claim it will take to get a judge's permission, and probably most importantly, tell ABSOLUTLEY NO ONE what you you do have. If anyone asks, "it's none of their business."
They can legally "detain" you and keep you there while they try to get a judge to approve the warrant, but without one, they can't search your property. They'll go as far as trying to talk you into sitting in the back of a squad car while you wait. They'll try to brow beat you into submission using fear tactics. They'll try pitching fits and use strong arm tactics. They'll even try to use a "sensible" approach by appealing to your sense of duty as a citizen. But they ABSOLUTLEY CANNOT arrest you or conduct an illegal or improper search and seizure of your property without a court order. And even if they have one, you have the right as a citizen to have a lawyer review the order or warrant BEFORE conducting the search. No matter how long it may take to get one.
This is why it pays to be a paying member of a 2A group. They keep lawyers on retainer throughout the country for this very purpose.
Has anyone seen a part 2 to his discussion about what happened at Project Veritas? Part 1 was very interesting. I've looked around but haven't seen it.
WTF!?!? I hope when this is over, James gets his guns back and is awarded a big sum for having his rights violated.

I'm not arguing against that. I was curious why people continued to do that, when it no longer serves the purpose it was made for.
Long ago, it was an "if you know, you know, winky winky" thing that could help people fly under the "That's anti-semetic!" censorship.
But everyone has been part of the "if you know, you know, winky winky" crowd for the last 10 years.
It’s the political version of a flip phone with T9 texting.
Agreed. Enough people now know who they are that ([{ is no longer helpful.
Jooooooooz
All my reported firearms, you mean.
In comments O'Keefe posted a picture of the Police Business card...

Just an officer? Was anyone of higher rank present? If he didn’t have a warrant, I would have refused and ordered the officer off my property.

Well he deserved it. He messed with Florida police. I like him but Florida?

Did they have a warrant? Without one, it’s a clear 2A violation. What state did this happen in? Did you get a report of what was taken?
The business card James shared shows West Palm Beach, Florida. Where is DeSantis? Or the AG?
Something smells bad with this. If I were James I'd just go out today and purchase another firearm. Then place it prominently on my desk!
Blue city revenge in a very red state. Let's see what happens. 🥳
Be careful James. Charlie 2.0

Who’s the local police?
