Yeah... nice guy... I think he's moved on from forums... Bakersfield? Yeah, can't think of a reason Westbrooks would be there.
Passing through headed north on I-5. I grew up in the area and my brother was BPD. If what I heard is right where the stopped occurred isn't really "in town".

Now what if Westbrooks bought the gun from a friend who got it from a friend, etc, etc, etc.? I know the law doesn't care, but if he would of got a bill of sale from the friend, maybe he could get off light with the possession of stolen property charge. I sold a handgun to a friend years ago and I insisted on a bill of sale just in case years later it shows up as a murder weapon or something.

Curious but how often is a gun of any kind sold then reported stolen?

I don't. Looking through my close family, the only person who owns a gun is my dad, who inherited some WWII-era rifles when my grandfather died.

My wife wants a handgun, but neither of us really cares about it enough to go through the paperwork.

One burglar can change your feelings on that very quickly. I had my guns locked in the basement when a guy broke in at 2:00 AM. Fortunately the dog heard him and he ran out the back. What if he had a weapon or was whacked out on drugs. What if he came into the room looking for money. We suddenly realized just how vulnerable we were. The gun is in a fingerprint safe by my bed and we now have an alarm system. That year there were 70 unconfirmed robberies in our dinky little town of Riverside. I hope I never have to use it but I am a Damon good shot. If so, then I pity the fool.

My Dad gave me a .22 cal revolver that was given to him. The gun is a POS but it made me realize that there are probably a lot of guns unaccounted for.

doesn't everybody in america own a gun?

Don't know, but they should.

Lotta people shouldn't either.
This...unless you know how to use one...in the heat of the moment....it's more likely to cause harm....rather, shoot & injure an unintended target. Gun in a case...gun in the trunk...hell, unless your gun is in your hand, I can't see anyone being able to pull and use it when it's totally necessary on the street. Maybe in the home...but most likely a gun is only gonna cause problems.

As a Ram fan I have been disappointed in his play this season
I actually think he's played the best out of all the DL's to this point. Great activity and penetration.

I doubt it. I don't need to buy something on the off chance that someone breaks into my home, and the off off chance that that someone is armed or whacked out on drugs.

I had a crack head stick a steak knife out and put the very tip in to my belly.
Not sure if the point was to scare me or rob me or what...

Either way, I wanted to murder that guy so bad... I am glad I didnt have a gun. Everybody walked away and 19 year old me never shot anybody.... if i had been able to get my hands on a pistol, and find the little clown car full of crackheads that these guys had been driving around in, it wouldnt have been "in self defense". And I doubt I would have been anymore merciful with the others.

Kudos to those that safely own guns.
But no, not everyone should have one and more of them doesn't make everyone safer.

Well the good thing for Westbrooks is he has the money for a good lawyer. So we need to just wait and see how the charges and all work out. My guess is they come up with some sort of deal and then we wait to see what kind of hammer the NFL is going to bring out.

Apparently the gun was in his glove box and the police saw it while he was searching for his registration.

Thats pretty damn typical for a gun to be. Even in movies.

Going out on a limb here was there anything else suspicious? I know this might sound far fetched but was the CHP officer a Raider or a 9ers fan?

That seems extremely far fetched.

How about when the cop asks for the registration instead of exposing a freakin' gun to the cop say, "Registration? I'm sorry officer, I don't have it in the vehicle like I know I should." Maybe the cop is cool and just runs your DL info and writes you a ticket. Maybe not... But when the cop sees the gun, you're freaked anyway...
