[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trump is reaping what he sowed.  His gun rights policies are making it harder to prosecute his would-be assassin.  Whoopsie.

The Supreme Court expanded gun rights. That could complicate the Trump assassination attempt case.
Ryan Routh is charged with violating the federal ban on former felons possessing guns. But does that ban violate the Second Amendment?[/quote]

Wow, I thought the poster saying it was just a guy in FL sitting around with an AR-15 was being facetious. But looks like it's questionable whether they can even charge him with an assassination attempt. I wonder if he can sue the USSS agent who shot at him [/quote]

No, he can’t. He was not following FL gun law whatsoever. He was attempting to assassinate Trump, fled when he was discovered, has a long history of hating Trump online. He wrote a book asking other country’s leaders to assassinate Trump. His son was interviewed and stated that both he and his father hate Trump, as “reasonable” people do.[/quote]

Actually, the problem with a lawsuit is not the (as yet unproven) allegations cited, but rather than suing for being shot at would require an admission that he was on the golf course at the relevant place and time, providing a link to the rifle and other preparations that were found.

At this point (although there probably is DNA evidence we’re not reading about yet), if he has remained silent they have only the word of an alleged eyewitness. Such testimony is notoriously unreliable. He did not have the gun with him when arrested. [/quote]

What lawsuit are you referring to? Link?[/quote]

The future lawsuit filed against Trump and the USSS for violating this man's second amendment rights - ie: shooting at him for open carrying a rifle.[/quote]

Routh’s attorneys have not issued any statements or commented a single time about his charges or case.

Are you one of his attorneys? Aren’t you bound to client-attorney privilege? Why would you be publicly commenting on your client’s case publicly? Even anonymously? You seem like a completely unethical attorney and do not have the best interests of your client in mind.

I hope Routh’s competent attorneys find your comments here and sue you. Hope you have good malpractice insurance.[/quote]

DP What a leap. Who was calling out theories as looney?   No one needs to be an attorney to assume this guy will try to defend himself with the lax restrictions on guns in FL.  You seem oddly personally invested in this yourself. [/quote]
