Return to “FL:Stand your ground law under fire for parking space dispute murder”
https://lawofselfdefense.com/analysis-m ... slaughter/OK, folks, here’s a somewhat more in-depth commentary on Drejka’s conviction last night:
Last night “handicap parking spot shooter” Michael Drejka was found guilty of manslaughter, as charged, for the shooting death of Markeis McGlockton. The verdict was returned quickly last night, after the jury had deliberated only a few hours.
“Handicap Spot” Trial Triggers #FakeNews Tsunami
By Attorney Andrew Branca / August 19, 2019
The Florida “handicap parking spot shooting” trial of Michael Drejka starts this week, and accordingly news coverage of the case—by which, of course, I mean “media lying” about the case—can be expected to spike.
An excellent example of such media lying is found in today’s lie-filled report by—no surprise—that festering sore of media lies CNN. In today’s post we step through that “news” report and fisk out the many lies within.
Here is the info from the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles. You can see more at the links in previous messages. I've copied and summarized the TxDMV web page here for your convenience. Any questions can be answered by the TxDMV at (888) 368-4689 or (512) 465-3000.WTR wrote: ↑Thu Aug 30, 2018 12:21 pm You may be correct concerning the expiration date of a card. However, I do 99% of my work in El Paso and I have never seen a Red card. Also, three of the people I know who have had temporary disabilities ( two broken ankles and one broken clavicle which required surgery) cards all received blue cards and are TX residents.
Disabled Veteran license plates feature "DV" as part of the license plate number. DV-designated plates provide the same parking rights and privileges as a plate with the International Symbol of Access. To qualify:
You must be a veteran of the U.S. Armed Forces, with a service-connected disability of at least 50 percent, or at least 40 percent due to the amputation of a lower extremity, and
Honorably discharged, receiving compensation from the U.S. government as a result of such disability.
Proof of eligibility may be provided with signed approval by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs on Form VTR-615, or a letter from Veterans Affairs stating eligibility.
VTR-615 Application for Disabled Veteran License Plates and Parking Placards
Texas cities may provide additional parking privileges, such as free parking at the airport. Check with your local city officials.
Vehicles with Disabled Veteran license plates may be parked for an unlimited period in a parking space or area that is designated specifically for persons with physical disabilities on the property of an institution of higher education regardless of whether a permit is generally required for the use of the space or area. For more information about campus parking privileges, please contact the institution of higher education.
In addition to the Disabled Veteran plate, certain military honors license plates are also eligible for exemptions from payment of certain parking fees, including:
Air Force Cross
Air Medal
Air Medal with Valor
Army Distinguished Service Cross
Bronze Star
Bronze Star with Valor
Congressional Medal of Honor
Defense Superior Service Medal
Distinguished Flying Cross
Distinguished Service Medal
Former Prisoner of War
Legion of Merit
Legion of Valor
Medal of Honor
Navy Cross
Pearl Harbor Survivor
Purple Heart
Silver Star
World War II Veterans
Temporary disability placards are red and are expire in six months or less. Permanent placards are blue and are renewable every four years. The placards have an expiration date on them. License plates are intended to be permanent. Disabled vet plates are a little different in that we present the VA disability rating letter rather than a prescription.
Yes, you were unreasonable.
