I thought his permit was already revoked and guns confiscated due to the legal action taken by the defendants after the $1.5 million judgement ???

Maybe I misread something, but that was my understanding after reading the original thread up to about page 12. Lost interest after that.

YOU THINK YOU HAVE PROBLEMS...

giant sloths in patagonia, goatsuckers in costa rica, flying saucers in chernobyl, anal probing aliens in downtown detroit, elvis working in a mcdonalds in little rock, bigfeet in oklahoma city. i have been notified about all of these things from various reputable internet sources and im having a very hard time trying to determine the correct government agency(s) to inform as it is my solemn responsibility as a citizen to do..

Wait so let me get this straight. FBI lives in FLA & GMan lives in SC which has recipriosity with FLA.

Sooooooo Gman is wondering if because someone that he never directly tested, in another state, albeit connected to his, made some comment about "borderlne going postal" in front of a jury, is somehow his fiduciary responsibility causing him to be upset enough to make a thread on ARFCOM to get "the peoples" veiws to justify or placate his possible intentions, while is also, somehow, related to 9/11?

WTF over?

One it's the internet.
Two Don't make threats on public boards about what you may or may not do. That's childish.
Three If he's your responsibility, then I guess all the CCW's holders in any state that has reciprocity with SC must keep you awake at night just wondering what they're doing. Do you and all of the rest of SC's CCW/SLED folks get dragged into court, fined, & yelled at if some FLA ccw holder goes off his rocker? Again WTF?

If you want to help him, chew his ass out in private about how his comments & attitude, as you percieve it, threaten him & the rest of us CCW holders. Dragging this shit out in front of the world makes the rest of us look even more unable to maintain order in our "house" without having to rely on the "authorities" to keep us "crazies" in line.

I didn't read too much of the original post. I guess he just refuses to take off his holster? I didn't even think that was worth replying to, let alone 15 pages.
Let sleeping dogs lie. Let him rant and rave, and hopefully blow off some steam on the internet. I don't take anything I read on the net seriously/personally. If I met someone in person, and they were a raving lunatic, it might be different.

Off hand comment IN FRONT OF A JURY?

As I recall, that's how it happenned. IF ANYTHING, he prolly toned it down while in front of the jury.

Has it occurred to you that perhaps...... Just perhaps, if this was such a potentially dangerous and unstable individual, making allusions to physical violence, that since he WAS in fact, in front OF A JURY, that maybe..... just maybe, the JUDGE or the PROSECUTOR might take issue with his statements and move to revoke his carry permit ???? Yet they did not ???

Ever cross your mind ??

I mean, it DID happen "IN FRONT OF A JURY !!!".......... You said so yourself.

In my uneducated, and highly unrefined opinion, you're way way WAY out of line, and teetering on the precipice of megalomaniacal self-righteousness.

Now, you've got a patent reputation here for being a little full of yourself from time to time, but this goes WELL beyond that....... You'd do well to sit back and take a serious look at your own ideas of self-importance and think long and hard before attempting to seriously screw with another man's life like that. Especially one who you've never met, or have ANY personal knowledge of, more than internet 'tough talk', to boot.

I suggest you think a tad more on your assumptions and reflect apon your perceived "fiduciary duties" as you like to call them........

Good question.

In working the law thru the legislature, we made it as generic as possible - so permittess and instructors do NOT have statute that specifically jams them up.

All the law really says is I am subject to audit should a permitee commit a crime, and I have teh discretion to NOT sign an app.

But in my SLED training, it was prety clear we are more than just paper pushers. We are the front line of defense against teh wrong people getting CCW's. If the law was black letter, I wouldn't be asking you.

NO ONE like a snitch. But I'm thinking my hand is forced. As a CCW instructor myself, I havea fiduciary duty as well as the authority to deny CCW permits.

The whole thing started from this thread...www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=1&f=5&t=435006&page=15

Page 15

The poster described himself - even after I seriously challenged his authenticity - as on the edge of "going postal." Apparently, he said as much in front of a jury.

He also described himself as "warning" his lawyers not to go "beyond their bounds." These are people he is PAYING to be on his side, and he mildly threatens them.

While no one likes a snitch, and I never thoguht I'd do it, I also remember IF ONLY the trainers had told SOMEONE about people who wanted to learn to fly a plane but NOT to land the plane...if they had told SOMEONE about that very unusual thing...

As a CCW instructor myself, can I really sit by and let this go? Again, I pressed this guy REAL hard and he maintains that he has REALLY done these things.

I'm really conflicted here. But I think it better to "self police" than to have a CCW permittee "go postal."

I have a fiduciary duty. "All that is needed for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing."

Doing nothing didn't work our so well three out of four times on Sept 11. In one occasion, doing something helped. It saved lives.

Umm...I don't want to interupt, but would you mind speding up that call to the authorities. I mean being a "Self Policing" CCW instructer and all, I'd like to see how much pull you have. Thanks

That is correct, I do not understand your fiduciary duty as a SLED certified instructor. You should understand your fiduciary duty, as you are a SLED certified instructor. Therefore, you have a responsibility to act if you believe a certian set of circumstances have been met. If you are unsure if those circumstances have been met, seek legal counsel.

I don't mean to be blunt. I just believe if you have questions reguarding a legal obligation, with reprocussions, you should not ask questions about it on an internet chat site. You should seek sound, legal advise to protect yourself.

This would be my point in not feeling it necessary for you to excercise your "fiduciary duty". In reading the transcripts, it doesn't appear to me he has said anything here that he hasn't articulated in the courtroom. Come on, think about it. He has already made these statements in front of a Judge/Jury/ and who knows who else and you feel a "duty" to report someone based on unsubtantiated ramblings on the internet? Do you know for a fact this is the real Destefano? Wouldn't you think the folks that witnessed these statements in person would have a better understanding of what should be done?

And I might add one more thing. I am not a member of the tin foil hat wearers of America, but if you honestly think that the system can't team up a lay a whole bunch of whoopass at the feet of undeserving folks, then you sir are naive.

I am a huge proponent of personal responsibility, so I will give you my standard answer to almost any "Should I" question. In the end, you do what you feel you must and be willing to live with the consequences.

The fact that you felt the duty to report this is somewhat disappointing

. The fact that you started a thread asking "Should I snitch?" is extremely disappointing.

Do pushups, garandman.

I'd mind my own business and move on.

Quoted:

Have you ever heard your SLED training officer when he laughs so loud he sounds like he's in pain ? Have you ever heard him let out a HUGE belly laugh ?

Call him and tell him your concerns then sit back and listen.

I've got a call in to them.

I'll see what they say.

Maybe you guys are right.

Why should I worry about it? Not my problem. Protect me and mine, nothing more.

If SLED says I have no responsibility, then that's it. I guess No reason to go beyond that.

Mind your own business. You don't have the facts. You have YOUR interpretation of SOME facts presented on a message board.

Just remember, Karma's a bitch.

I'd concentrate on your own life, you probably have your hands full.

My conditional answer is yes, provided that you can form a well structured argument, supporting a premise that the poster's CCW poses a threat to public safety. If the argument is sound (void of boolean logic errors and known logical fallacies) and survives critical evaluatation by an uninterested third party, you have my blessing. If not, then no. You should not "snitch".

G-man,
SC has no reciprocity with Fl. You are an instructor in SC this guy got his permit thru another instructor in Fl. You have NO fiduciary duty here at all. Forget it. You are just gonna waste some guy at SLED's time and end up looking like a snitch. Drop it. It's for your own good. You have more to lose here than he does. YMMV.
