Plaxico to serve 2 years in Prison.

[goldenryan]

Don't you think two years is excessive? He didn't hurt anyone besides himself.

Never even heard of him or the stroy behind it, got a link?

Depends on the state. It could very easily be that those two years are served in probation. The two year sentence would be served as if part of the probation, with the actual probation to follow as long as he meets the requirements.

What the hell is a Plaxico...Mexico's cousin or something?

i could post a link, but imma too lazy. long story short he's a pro football player who accidently shot himself at a night club and got charges filed against him for carrying a unregisted gun across state lines.

[Hector]

Ok...now I know about him...I googled the name.

Yes...he deserves prison time...he did not have a valid permit to carry a concealed weapon...it discharged...he was shot in the leg (imbecile)...and narrowly missing a security guard.

If a guy can go to prison for having weed...he can also certainly go to jail for having a concealed weapon...and then foolishly have it discharged...he could've killed someone.

Yes...idiots like him deserve a couple of years in prison to reflect upon their own stupidity.

But you made this thread...it's your responsibility to provide links...

I didn't even know who he was...but it took me three seconds to find a link...

He's an idiot. Should we wait till he kills someone? I think since he is rich, he should have to foot the bill for his prison stay and not the tax payers.

Exacto mundo...

[Hector]

He didn't even have a bloody holster for the gun...what an imbecile.

People who are not familiar with guns...shouldn't have them in the first place.

Yes...I'm pro-gun...but that right is for people who are law-abiding citizens who know their gun laws...abide by the rules...and are educated in overall gun ownership.

2 years is crazy!! Vick kills and tortures animals and he's out in less then 2 and this guy shoots himself by mistake and gets 2 years? I think it's crazy, just fine him $100K and make him work with guns and gangs prevention programs that would atleast help or make a difference instead of wasting tax payers money housing this guy for 2 years

well what if the jack@ss did shoot someone? as easy as he shot himself, some innocent person could have died.

true, but he didn't...so i don't get why 2 years

looks at drunk drivers, they can kill anyone at anytime..do they get 2 years?

They get much, much more...the DUI penalties are now much tougher than ever.

[Hector]

Besides...who really cares about that idiot...good riddance for two years.

Then he'll come back and get picked up by the Eagles. These idiots that get prison time do not deserve a second chance at the NFL.
