Should Di c k Chenny be charged or have to pay a fine for shooting his buddy?

Sounds very negligent to me, despite attempts to whitewash the incident among friends.  Still and all, even were the friends not the VP, probably no charges would be filed, and no lawsuit. (Esp. since Cheney provided immediate medical help.)

Because this person did not have a FOID (Firearm owners Identifcation card)could be the only reason this would be a federal charge, however the Foid card is state issued, so it may not fall under federal jurisdiction.  The possession thing is truly a serious charge for a convicted felon, plus the firearm will be deemed stolen property w/o a serial number.  These charges will assure your friend some serious prison time.

I just saw the last episode tonight, May 3. Those guys should be locked up for about 10 years for the first offense. They won't stop until they see some severe penalties for it. I'm not sure even the cops and judges really get it, how bad it is. They get slapped on the wrist.

He was fined the usual $5000 for kicking the ball into the stands. He wasn't fined for kicking the stationary bike, though. I understand his anger...I'd probably do the same thing.

I think there should be a $500 fine the first time someone does this, and licsense suspension if they do it again.

In an interview on hip-hop radio station Hot 97 Monday night, 50 announced that he was kicking The Game out of his G-Unit clique because of disloyalty - for refusing to take 50's side in his latest battles with high-profile rappers. Then a shooting occurred outside the radio station, wounding one man, police said.\n \n \nInvestigators, still trying to sort out the chaotic scene, suspected the comments were heard on the radio by associates of The Game, including the shooting victim. The associates allegedly went to the radio station, where they were met outside by members of 50 Cent's entourage and the violence erupted, police said.\n\nAt the time, 50 Cent was inside; he was not harmed. It was unclear whether The Game was directly involved, police said.\n\nNo arrests have been made. An unidentified, 24-year-old Los Angeles man was in stable condition with a gunshot wound to the upper thigh.\n\nRepresentatives for 50 and Hot 97 (WQHT-FM in New York) had no comment when contacted by The Associated Press on Tuesday.\n\n\n\nbasicly 50 got mad at game because he didn't want to get involed in his beefs and 50 called game disloial then they squashed it on tv but started beefing agiand a month latier

The potential damage could be very bad as in (jail time), but as already stated, you shouldn't have a problem because most people will not even notice unless you have poor concealment techniques.  If you ever have to pull your handgun on someone make sure you call the police afterward even if you don't have to shoot.  You pulling the gun on them may put a stop to the issue, but they may try to turn the tables on you and tell the police that you did it for no reason.  So, if you draw, call the cops ASAP and let them know.  Police tend to believe the first person that calls so don't give the bad guys the upper hand.

I read it just now as well. It is interesting. I guess he now knows how those guys must have felt. I don't blame him for being "miffed" though. I think I would be miffed too if I got shot.

No.  That would make for bad relation between cops.  If he did, he would most likely end up behind a dumpster.  Died from a cap in his *ss.

As a former Texas police officer, I can tell you that the guy that is doing it on purpose could be charged with Criminal Mischief if the owner of the property choses to press charges. If it's an accident, then the owner can take the driver(s) to civil court and sue for the damage to the lawn. No one has the right to hurt someone else's property and the one guy that is doing it on purpose needs a charge slapped on his butt and then he can sit in his jail cell and spin his wheels. He can also be sued for the damage. If the owner wants to press charges, tell them to get it on video if possible. Hide a camera somewhere and then they have their proof. =)

Well if someone in my family had be killed, I would want the person responsible to pay. And if it met going to the gas chamber or lethal injection then so be it. It may not bring that love one back, but I would have the satisfaction of knowing it could never go and do it to anyone else, he would be off the streets for good.\n\nThanks for the 2 points.

Not unless your local police department does not charge.\nAny and everyone that I know of requires a fee.

We don't know the whole story.  The officer who was hit by the vehicle may not have identified himself as an officer, and if he had his weapon drawn, would have appeared to be an armed mugger.  Most of us would have run him down in that case.  If he was identified as an officer, hitting him was stupid, and very wrong.  But nothing changes the fact 50 rounds were shot at people that had no weapons.

If you are not a felon, and the gun is legally registered to you then there a several things that will happen.  First if you shoot someone you will go to jail period.  You will probably be released on bail and have to go to court.  You will most likely be found not guilty of criminal charges unless you are carrying the gun illegaly.  The main problem is that even if you are aquitted of the charges and your gun is returned to you, you will still most likely be sued by the victims family or even the victim in civil court.  You will most likely loose, and have to pay them money even if they committed the crime and not yourself.  I was taught this in a handgun course for carrying a weapon.  I live in TN. and we are allowed to carry a gun if you pay and have no felonies.
