The Idiot thinks he can talk Leftist Marxist rhetoric from tardville Miami cause the Idiot came from some tardville city in Texas, probably Austin or some such Leftist Marxist urban infestation, go figure.

I’d presume that he considers the U.S. Constitution “ridiculous” as well.

They said the same thing about concealed carry in every state that’s gotten it. Then every permitless carry too. You’d think after being wrong so many times they’d give up, but nope! Still the same wild west hysteria.

That is because our media is not about conveying truth. They are about propagandizing the Democrat narrative. They revel in being not correct, but politically correct.

Agreed, for example Vermont has had permitless carry since becoming a state in 1791 and there certainly has not been much if any violence in that state for all of those years (although a bit of an upswing since Burlington decided to become a “sanctuary city” a few years back).

I wonder if he would mind showing us his license to exercise his 1st amendment right. Otherwise h is just being ridiculous.

Texas is a red state.

Is St. Louis still in Missouri?

Do you open carry in St. Louis?

Guns aren’t the cause of gun violence, young black men are. How many black people are in Vermont? 1.4% of the state is black.

Acevedo seems a moving disaster. Wherever he goes, bad things happen to the police department.

The Austin PD is suffering. The Houston PD is in the middle of huge scandals.

Chief Acevedo just finds another, bigger, more leftist city to hire him based on his leftist credentials.

It is very sad.

From Dade to West Palm, it’s liberals.

Most dangerous place in the world is that space between a news camera and Acevedo.
Art is a Media whore and the MSM loves it.

I kept waiting for the CBS guy to ask the chief this simple question: if concealed carry was against the law everywhere in America (with a permit or without a permit), how would that have impacted what happened in Miami, Dade County regarding the mass shooting at the rap party?

Most of what the chief said was complaining about the lack of action by the DAs and the courts regarding how the criminals were being treated prior to trials actually taking place—not about concealed carry.

The chief also lamented about the burglary of a gun store should be a federal crime. Really! Where does the chief think that the criminals obtain the majority of their guns: from street theft (vehicles and homes) or from burglarizing gun stores.
