Benn has a concealed handgun permit and has no criminal convictions, according to a 2009 renewal of his permit. Colorado had a concealed handgun permit in Norfolk, but a judge revoked it in September 2008 because of a voluntary commitment in Chesapeake, according to court records. Details about what prompted a Chesapeake judge to issue the commitment order were unavailable, and the District Court clerk’s office said they are sealed.

Colorado was a Norfolk deputy sheriff from April 1994 to May 1996, when he was terminated, said Paula Miller, a Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman. He later worked as an auxiliary deputy in Chesapeake. He was promoted to auxiliary sergeant in Chesapeake in 1998 and stayed with the office until 2008, according to a sheriff’s spokesman and court records.

Colorado was known in online communities under his Twitter and Facebook handle “Norfolk Dirt.”
And he was just arrested this spring for harrassing a woman.

Why did Colorado have a concealed handgun? I believe Benn's account of the incident. Colorado had quite a past according to the article.

People who bitch about people on the phone should be shot.
Oh please, spare us your indignation. We have more than half the country, and all of the younger generation, totally distracted from the reality of every day living.
The "phools on phones" are killing us (and themselves) on the highways; they walk into traffic like a stroll into a park; and they sit at traffic lights 30 seconds after the green.
You can't swing a dead cat without hitting a phool no matter where you go. They're like a plague of locusts, except the locusts eventually go away.
Phools on phones suck.

I certainly hope the jury/grand jury gets to see ALL
of the evidence...especially ALL of the video that
almost certainly does exist as most stores have multiple
surveillance cameras. It’s quite obvious that the general
public will probably not have access to all of the evidence.

Colorado, 42, was a former Norfolk deputy sheriff and auxiliary deputy in Chesapeake

That's all you need to know. It's clear who is going to get screwed here.

He was fired from one of his police jobs for harassing a woman on his website if I remember correctly.

I’ll see if I can find the article again.

Colorado was a Norfolk deputy sheriff from April 1994 to May 1996, when he was terminated, said Paula Miller, a Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman. He later worked as an auxiliary deputy in Chesapeake. He was promoted to auxiliary sergeant in Chesapeake in 1998 and stayed with the office until 2008, according to a sheriff’s spokesman and court records.

Colorado was known in online communities under his Twitter and Facebook handle “Norfolk Dirt.”

Norfolk police arrested him on April 28 on an allegation that he was harassing a woman who coordinated an anti-sexual-assault rally called SlutWalk Norfolk. Colorado made a video of himself talking to women who participated in the march; the video, posted on YouTube, shows a Norfolk police officer telling him he is under arrest.

The woman who filed the complaint, Jacqueline Roderick, a student at Eastern Virginia Medical School, printed copies of Facebook and Twitter postings by Colorado, who made vulgar sexual references to her and called her “sweety” and “slut queen,” according to court records. She obtained an emergency protective order.

He went to Norfolk District Court for a hearing June 28. Judge James Mathews allowed the charge to be dropped but only under the condition that Colorado post an apology hourly on his Norfolk Dirt Facebook page from 8 p.m. to midnight that day and from noon to 8 p.m. on June 29, according to court records.

The use of cellphones should be banned inside stores, except in cases of emergencies requiring medical attention or police.

Are you Michael (Ban it if You don't like it) Bloomburg?

Call it what you will. The law calls it something else.

As annoying as the constant loud-mouth cell phone assholes are, I agree that jammers should be prohibited.

You can't as in individual decide to shut down public air space because you don't like it.

The owners of a restaurant need to have the balls to deal with obnoxious cell phone yackers one on one. This is not a deal where we need the government involved. People can handle this one them selves.

Is pepperspray considered a ‘deadly weapon”? Just curious.
