Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
Great news! Unfortunate it takes so long to have it dismissed so easily.
I know "speedy trial" no longer means anything, but this is ridiculous.
Glad to hear it worked out for you.
Terrific!!
GOOD!
About time.
If you're unarmed, you are a victim
Great news!
Liberals never met a slippery slope they didn't grease.

I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.

Good to hear!

Excellent news. With that the saga ends

It's a measure of the civility in this country that no ones seems to fear constantly pissing off the people who own lots of guns.
I suppose it's OK to reveal some of the story now. I hate to even write this after the other thread about the barking guy and the trend it may imply (it doesn't). But it's the truth, so here it is.Originally Posted by bryjcom
The short story is that an African American "lady" was acting like a complete asshole and I decided to toss her out due to her unacceptable behavior. She refused to leave (said "I ain't leaving and you can't make me") so I called the police to have her removed. While waiting forever for the police to arrive, this person was going nuts, calling everyone in sight a racist, yadda, yadda.
At one point, she whipped out her cell phone, said that I was a racist, among other things, and that she was going to "put this on Facebook". I advised her that we don't allow pictures or videos to be taken in the casino (for obvious reasons) but her response was basically "f-you I can do what I want". See a pattern here? When she held the phone up to my face, something snapped in me and I grabbed it out of her hand (not the best move, I know). I was thinking "this can't happen". She grabbed it back and that was it. No further contact.
When the police did finally arrive, they asked me if I wanted to press any charges (trespassing, etc.) but I told them no, as long as she is off our property I was happy. Then one officer basically convinced her to press charges against me. The other officer there was obviously not comfortable with this idea. The body cam footage was infuriating. That one officer is a POS in my book now, and he saw the footage from our surveillance footage before convincing her, so he knew this was petty bullshit. I see him a few times a week too. Kinda sad that I have zero respect for him now, but have to act professionally toward him. (please - no sweeping LEO bashing, most I deal with with are awesome)
There's a lot more to this story, but I won't bore you with any more.
From what I understand, "speedy trial" means within 6 months, unless you waive that. I had to go to a "hearing" three times since October. Each time my attorney and I sat there for 1-2 hours, then it was our turn. Each time the DA simply said that he has not reviewed this case at all, so let's schedule another hearing. Three times this happened. How freaking inefficient is that? No call saying, "Hey, umm, we need to reschedule because I'm buried in other important stuff, so how about this or that day/time instead?" My attorney drove from Denver to Gilpin County and sat there for 1-2 hours three times for nothing. The bill for this shit must me crazy.
Anyway, thanks for the kind thoughts guys. It's over. Freaking sweet!

Seems like the standard response should be to press charges. Would give you guys some leverage against the assholes.
Yes, a fellow member of this forum edumacated me to this. If you can press charges, do so. Or they probably will against you.
