Councilman Darrell Clark should be "back in court" soon and then straight to JAIL.

Isn't the typical Mantra "Ignorance is no excuse of the law"??
Than why is this Mayor so apparently ignorant?

I'm sure those laws will make murder a thing of the past.
no badguy will be able to buy more than one gun a month not even from out of the city
dang no more than 10 shot magazines everybody knows it takes more than 10 rounds to kill someone

And Nutter knew this would happen all along. The laws were a cheap way for him to get publicity for "doing something" to stop gun violence. He can't blame the real cause of gun violence in Philly because his constituents would revoit. Minority gang bangers and the drug trade eminating from North and West Philly.

Phila is a great place for criminals. Most get a slap and probation. Armed robbery is suppose to be a 5 year mandatory sentence. Guys that held me up got 10 years probation.
I would be impressed with Mayor Nutter if he spoke of more prisons & enforcing current laws. Oh yeah... and ousting lenient Judges

nutter and illegal laws
DA Lynn Abrams aka 'Jack McCoy' of Philly,before city council told them the laws were illegal and her office would not prosecute anyone arrested by these laws due to the probability of being sued. Leaves the cops out there hanging with the civil suit of false arrest.
And the 'stop and frisk' which is illegal on several levels still part of police procedures. Cops are going to be hit hard trying to enforce any of these 'laws'.
I live in the next town south of Philly and with a murder rate per capita higher then Philly. We have several councilmen wanting to suspend probable cause and institute such nonsense as 'stop and frisk'. They even admit to the paper that they know it's illegal but they don't care. Of course in this town you can seldom find a cop and they usually leave the high crime areas alone. Criminals killing criminals just makes less paper work and less of the courts time. Detectives that investigate the murders will tell the criminal who snitched them out and wonder why most people know what happened will not cooperate with police.BG back on the street in hours and threatening the witness. Lack of law enforcement and being related to the criminals leaves everything to be desired for our city police.
I remember one incident where a fight broke out everyone ran over to watch except the cop who told me someone should go check it out. I pointed to his badge and gun and asked if that wasn't HIS job. After a few minutes he went over there but did nothing.

"Stop and frisk" is perfectly legal. Under current supreme court precedent, as long as an officer has reasonable suspicion of criminal activity, he can search for weapons to ensure his safety. If this happens to turn up drugs, well, good luck claiming the officer didn't have reasonable suspicion to search.
Did any of you watch the Demo debate last night? Hillary actually brought up Nutter and she supported him as well Obama did to be able to pass local laws as they see fit. Obama actually went as so far as to say he believed the 2nd amendment did give and individual right BUT it could be curtailed (not sure the right word but he same meaning) by local laws. Get ahold of that is your mind for awhile. He could not come out and say he was againist the DC ban. Hilliary wants the assault weapon ban back. and so it goes. Do not ever believe them dems.

And he'd BETTER be able to convincingly elucidate that suspicion if he stops and frisks me. And you'd BETTER believe he's going to have a chance to do so in court. I'm betting my lawyer could make his "reasonable suspicion" sound like the ravings of a madman or a power hungry thug. Then what's his is mine.
I may not be able to beat the ride. But he won't beat the judgement and bankruptcy.
