Disabled Vet Charged with Felony Stalking of Phelps Scum |
2010-12-04 |
Seems to be AP source. Ryan Newell who lost both legs in A'stan (I think) is being held on $500,000 bond. Arrested with guns and ammo in vehicle while following Westboro cultists. One of the commenters to the article is even sicker than Phelpsians: "Think about it for am second. Who's fault is it that his legs got blown off? His, he enlisted and knew the dangers and he wanted to be a big bad tough guy soldier hero. He had it made, he had a new house that I assume he got free but not sure. He has wife or girlfriend or whatever and now she is screwed. And why did this all happen? Because the military is producing MERCENARIES. This has NOTHING to do with the Phelps." |

#8 a police officer w/no legs? He thought they'd buy that? Affirmative action? Desk sergeant? Computer specialist? Captain? What if he'd lost his legs in the line of duty -- as actually he did, although not police duty... As long as one isn't at risk of wrestling with bad guys, surely the police can put one's skills and experience to use if they're valuable enough. See how easy that was, Broadhead6? |

#7 a police officer w/no legs? He thought they'd buy that? If someone did then that is kind of funny. Still illegal, but funny. |

#6 Doc Steve, that's the one that has me puzzled. I do wonder how he represented himself as a police officer. That's the one that will stick, no matter who the judge is. |

#5 We've probably all committed felonies that we are completely unaware of. IIRC, a doctor mistakenly writing "right index finger" on an ER note when he really meant "left index finger" has committed felony fraud (his intention does not matter) if the patient is covered under Medicare. |

#4 Here are two news articles that will help. In addition to the gun charges and the stalking, he's accused of falsely representing himself as a police officer. You can argue the gun charges, and 'stalking' may be harsh, but impersonating a police officer is serious ju-ju. |

#2 RNJim, the gun laws in Kansas that were in effect at that time are way screwed up when it comes to what they call a felony "illegal carrying of a firearm". Basically, if you had a gun under the seat of your truck, you are illegally carrying a concealed firearm and guilty of a felony. I'm not sure if the new gun law that went into effect changes this, I just know as a permit holder in another state, I was warned about Kansas. Someone please correct me if you know better. |

#1 You stop and search MY car You're going to find "Guns and Ammo" as well as a permit and a CITIZEN who won't put up with harassment. There's got to be more to the story. |
