To make it a little more obvious for you, I asked the question directly to our resident constitutional attorney...
"Could congress pass a law that clarifies 924 in how it applies to LEO’s in the line of duty or “undeclare” it as you have stated in a way that would allow Ramos and Compean to be released from the 10 year mand?"
"Yea, they could. But if Congress does anything, it will probably take the easy route and cut the funding."

I'd certainly be interested in hearing how they could do that because it seems to violate everything I've read.

But, I have no interest in trying to carry on a conversation through you since you can't carry on a discussion without throwing around personal insults and posting juvenile graphics. If the resident constitutional attorney would like to dialogue directly, fine. I find no benefit in continuing this dialogue with you.

I already asked you specific questions that you were either unwilling or incapable of responding to. I'm still interested in answers to those, if Congressmanbillybob would be so kind as to answer.

I ask you, exactly which crime would you have Congress "undeclare"? 18 U.S.C. §924(c)(1)(A)(iii)]? All of 924(c)? Are you now suggesting that the solution you were previously suggesting, 100 posts ago, was for Congress to unwrite the law, thereby relieving tens of thousands of criminals of sentences handed down under this law? Or, are you suggesting that the resident FR Constitutional attorney believes that a law could be undeclared and applied only to the case of Ramos and Compean, but leaving all other criminals sentences unchanged? Somehow, I don't think he is going to agree with that one.

C'mon CCG, I know you're not this dense. The law could be clarified so it won't apply to LEO's using their weapons in the normal course of their duties, even if it is a mistake and not premeditated or part of some larger conspiracy or corruption.

I'll stop the "personal atatcks" when you stop playing the fool.

BTW...

“I’d certainly be interested in hearing how they could do that because it seems to violate everything I’ve read.”

I played your game now it’s your turn. Show us where you’ve read this is not possible...and no World Nut Daily articles or rantings from Andrew or the new world order nutcakes.

Legitimate sources only.

One more. Passing this type of legislation would immediately protect ALL LEO's, past present and future, while you're appeal might take years, has no guarantee of success and only affects Ramos and Compean.

Maybe you should go ask all your pardon and/or appeal buddies why this option has never been considered. I say this because from the beginning all this wailing and knashing of teeth over R&C seemed overdone and had the distinct fetid odor of agenda attached to it.

Which is sad because it means Ramos and Compean were only tools in a larger yet hidden media effort.
