Hey Jim if you are out there can you explain how Sean Penn got a Calif carry permit if he has a prior DV? Beatin up on Madonna

Is anyone gonna investigate this?

Was he convicted of actual DV?

Sometimes they plea bargain down to "disturbing the peace", etc.

What is interesting though - since CA is "discretionary", if they are giving a "Star" like him a permit - and IF he has a DV convict, that could go a LONG LONG way towards demonstrating bias and equal protection violations.

Sure - the Indian man who runs a jewelry store and has a family and not so much as a traffic ticket - why, its "too risky" to give him a permit, but this idiot who smacked his wife and likes to kiss the stinky parts of murderous dictators - lets give him the pistol permit!

Jim has not posted yet, but I know he is finding Penns permit to be way juicy.

I wish you'd posted in the Sean Penn thread already going :rolleyes:. I'll have to link this to that both ways now.

SO FAR, it appears he has a lot of misdemeanor battery charges, including assault with a deadly weapon, plis he's completely unapologetic about it, but they happened JUST far enough outside the 5 or 10 year period of firearms ownership ban for such misdemeanors that he's technically legal. I'll be filing a PRAR with the Ross PD tomorrow to find out *exactly* what's up, including his "good cause statement".

The whole thing is still a brutal condemnation of the current system. The advocates of "discretionary" licensing would normally point to a case exactly like this one as an example of why we need the discretion: he's (barely) legally able to apply but clearly a total nutcase. But he's a WEALTHY nutcase, so he's OK.

The grabber mantra is "sensible gun control". California's CCW system is so WILDLY, blatantly unsensible that it condemns the whole concept of gun control :fire:.

So in the Ross PD all is forgive if you have $$$. And their attitude is "SCREW THE POOR". Call 911. :fire: :cuss: :banghead:

Ross PD is an itty bitty department (fewer than 20) and shares its dispatch with adjacent agencies. The average home is Ross is $1 mil and when someone goes on vacation, they ask the chief if an officer wouldn't mind house sitting. I could live with a job like that.

Didn't any of you guys see the OJ thingy? Remember that if you have money you can get away with murder. So why not a CCW permit too? You can also use your power to make slow-witted females perform oral on you in the highest office in the land and get away with it!

It takes that kind of $$ just to get the realtor to talk to you!

There is no system. It's government by whim.

I thought Sean Penn lived in Sausalito (avg price is over 2mil+).

Where the heck is Ross?

Ross is just a few miles southwest of San Rafael.
