Isaiah Ware pulled a gun from its holster inside a Kroger store to fend off a physical altercation inside at Long Lake and Telegraph roads in Bloomfield Hills on Thursday (Oct. 5) at 5:30 p.m.
The Oakland County prosecutor’s office charged him with felony assault with a deadly weapon after the incident.
**"Ware said he went to the grocery store to buy some lasagna for dinner when he bumped into another guy at the self-checkout. Officials say both men exchanged words. Then it gets ugly quickly, and Ware, who is a CPL holder, pulls out his weapon".**
ReplyDeleteLesson: Stay focused to avoid "bumping" if possible and don't verbally react if someone calls you an asshole. Swallow your pride and say "Gee sorry". Being yelled at does not equate to a deadly threat.
Let me guess...a dem/Soros prosecutor.
ReplyDeleteOakland County (Mich) used to be a "decent" place to live,
ReplyDeletebut when Brooks Paterson (head prosecutor, then County Executive) died, it went Democratic, and a lot of the undesirable things associated with that took over.
Now its government is closer to Detroit in operating procedures.
And the current chief prosecutor has eyes on getting the County Executive job, and has been pushing this kind of left-wing court battles because it creates press releases.
So this event is not surprising.

While I agree that this is a second amendment situation, it is fair to point out that if this were two White guys accidentally bumping in a supermarket, 99 times out of 100 BOTH of them would mutter "Sorry" to one another and that would be the end of it. The whole 'disrespect' notion, or whatever it is that a couple of hair-trigger hot-headed ferals thinks warrant a rapid escalation to violence is the real issue here. The gun was a mere accessory. They'll throw bananas at one another if there is nothing more lethal to hand.
ReplyDeleteThe way the MSM reports on gun incidents have most non-gun owners terrified of just the sight of a gun, and even items that they wrongly mistake for a gun.

ReplyDeleteI think he's going to have a hard time establishing a threat to himself that a reasonable person would agree requires displaying a lethal weapon. It sucks to put up with assholes, but it's less of burden than a misdemeanor or felony and losing the ability to legally carry (aka, carry with a reasonable certainty you won't get screwed simply for doing so). Came close to losing my CCL before a dismissal, it was much more disturbing than I'd anticipated.
