Too good not to repost. From Joan Peterson of the Brady Campaign.

The amount of rounds in a magazine certainly does make a difference. Tell that to the 3rd, 4th, 5th person killed at the Tucson shopping mall. At the least fewer people would have been killed and perhaps with more time to get away since the shots would not be coming so quickly.

And Joan what will you tell to the 1st and 2nd people? BTW you buddy and colleague, as well as likely all of his deceased classmates, were shot with ammo that had been loaded into a 10-round magazine. What do you say to him and his deceased classmates?

But this is why Joan moderates her comments. Arguments of the antis are for those who feel, but never think.

Looks like another video has surfaced (link here)

Seems he pulls over a car suspecting drunk driving, and in his search he finds a .25 Pistol on the floor. As we saw in the now famous viral video, Officer Daniel “Roid Rage” Harless again threatens to murder all people at the scene. This of course kind of eclipses his horrendous behavior as a law enforcement officer, as well as horribly unprofessional behavior which in themselves make him a shame to the police force.

Please note that Jay found Mr. Harless to have an extensive history with internal affairs, given how similar these two videos are, I suspect at least a few of those 16 cases are similar.

Given that he is still able to walk in public wearing a Canton PD shield, and his behavior is known to at LEAST two other officers, and given the number of IA investigations, I suspect most of the force knew him as a lose cannon, and given the Force’s one reckless disregard for the rights of their citizens I wouldn’t be happy until every member of the Police force from the Chief to the dispatchers were terminated and replaced with new, unrelated faces, and Mr. Harless stands trial for his violent crimes.

I certainly will make it a point the next time I’m in Ohio to not go anywhere near the city of Canton.

Furthermore I’m also very unimpressed by the reaction by the officer. Now again like the first video there does appear to be something shady going on. Still a gun inside a car isn’t a crime by itself. Ohio you can open carry and own guns without permits or permission. There is no word if the driver or passenger were intoxicated, nor if they were prohibited people (granted that would only be determined after the scene was secured) But just because somebody has a gun in the car is no reason to shoot somebody. In Ohio you have a duty to inform the police if you are carrying a weapon. Furthermore they were asked and lied, that’s a big deal. Furthermore there was the whole “Its not mine” bullshit. they’re probably prohibited people up to no good.

Congrats officer, you got them. Cuff and book them, and enjoy a beer and maybe a 3 hour workout session to keep those dirty muscles firm. They were compliant, they didn’t try to run, or fight. You have no justification to shoot them.

The entire Canton PD is this violent criminal, as far as I’m concerned. I don’t know why anybody would think any different.

This scene was witnessed by an officer who appears to be different than the other video
