Negligent discharge

RAPID CITY, S.D. – A stop at a fast-food restaurant's drive-through on Tuesday afternoon led to a trip to the hospital after a man accidentally shot himself in the leg with a pistol. The 24-year-old man was apparently trying to clear the weapon when it went off and hit him in the calf.

Police said the man didn't need a permit because the gun wasn't concealed, so he didn't break any laws.

His name was not released.

Thankfully he only hurt himself, that and SD has some reasonable laws.
In VA an asshole DA could try the reckless endangerment rap.

PS 2 posts in 1 day don't see it happening until the next full moon.

Bill would give Obama power to shut down Internet

(6) may order the disconnection of any Federal Government or United States critical infrastructure information systems or networks in the interest of national security;

Nutshell:

Shine a light on the cockroaches with a badge and then they scatter.
(The vast majority of LEOs are honorable men and women duty-bound to serve and protect)

Exercise your 1st amendment rights and apparently forfeit your 5th amendment rights to due process and deprivation of life, liberty and property.

Ron Paul rocks hard

http://www.ronpaul.com/2009-03-29/ron-pauls-speech-in-st-louis-missouri/

you can skip the video and just read the transcript.

Can someone give me 3 VALID reasons why he was not nominated for president?

"because he speaks the truth" is NOT a valid reason
