if they use drejka’s past they use mcglockton’s past and mcglockton’s past is MUCH MUCH worse.

True - but the poisonous little toad wasn't buying ice cream.

He was looking for blood. And that's the way the jury is going to see it.

Did you check out rolling toad Drejka's "incident map" on the article?

There will be more...

"If Justa is correct about the prosecutors being able to dredge up his sordid little past with a manslaughter charge, he's toast."

Prosecutors immediately digging up someones "sordid little past" is almost always proof they otherwise have no case. Trust me on this one they are scratching their heads trying to figure out how they could bring this guy to trial if they are forced by political fallout.

Show us the past arrest records or charges against Drejka, not left-wing media propaganda.

officer: "I advised him [Drejka the Toad] his (concealed carry) permit did not give him the right to exhibit (a gun) because he was ‘flipped off’ for honking at someone," the officer wrote. "I told him a report would be taken and that if the victim was located he could face jail and the loss of his (concealed carry permit)."

Markeis McGlockton had a history of violent felonies - but he was buying ice cream with his kid, not looking for blood like the poisonous little toad Drejka.

I know you're having a hard time wrapping your mind around the fact that the state of Florida HAS to get this guy off the streets.

you are a wealth of erroneous, made up information! why is that? why do you keep making up things that people said/felt/meant/did? so ridiculous that you hang out at FR but spew leftist derangement positions.

Look, I went up against a bunch of you naysayers when this first went down.

Same story, different day.

Drejka is going to die in prison, where his poisonous little toad act isn't going to fly. He should off himself right now.

I've been around the block a few times at FR, kid [class of 1997].

I'm not interested in your lack of information gathering skills.

Buying ice cream? I think you left out the part where he violently assaulted Drejka in the parking lot.

He's had contact with law enforcement on at least three previous occasions, and lied to the officers each and every time - and they knew it.

If the prosecutors can use that at trial, he's toast.

And there WILL be more incidents - mark my words.

This isn't a case of a George Zimmerman justifiably flushing a Purple Drank turd down the toilet.

I’d love to see you dredge up some of your posts during the gz days as I seem to believe you took the EXACT SAME STANCE on that case as this one. white guy bad; black guy good.

The prosecutors are going to ask the jury why the poisonous little toad Drejka had to spin a u-turn on the way home to get him some blood at the convenience store - where he'd threatened to shoot somebody before over the exact same thing.

And then called the guy's boss to threaten to shoot him some more...

All I need to see is on that video. Not Guilty.

""I told him a report would be taken and that if the victim was located he could face jail and the loss of his (concealed carry permit)."

You realize this is nothing right? There was no arrest, no charges, no nothing. There is no proof it even happened.

It sounds like Drejka has never even been arrested.

I’ll bet that cop is a democrat and voted for Hillary. Did he even file an incident report as he claims? I doubt it.

No, he has not.

You can bet the prosecutors have already talked to all the officers involved in those incidents.
