FORT PIERCE -- A 53-year-old man accused of hitting a woman who called him the name of an old boyfriend during an intimate act Monday morning is facing a battery charge, according to an arrest affidavit released Tuesday.
The victim told police that she and Johnny Mobley, of the 1000 block of Mayflower Road, were “having sex and that she called Mobley her old boyfriend's name.”
Enraged, Mobley started to punch and choke the woman, striking her in the head and lip.
She left Mobley's apartment following the 1:30 a.m. altercation and called law enforcement officials from a shopping center.
She said Mobley broke a lamp and she cut her foot on glass while leaving.
Mobley said no one had been in his apartment, but police found bloody footprints leading away from the residence.
"the so-called "take-your-guns-to-work" measure would prohibit business owners from banning guns kept locked in motor vehicles on their private property.
The measure applies to employees, customers and those invited to the business establishment as long as they have a permit to carry the weapon."
Exceptions to the measure include: nuclear power plants, prisons, schools and companies whose business involves homeland security.
Supporters claim that this upholds the intention of the founding fathers when they penned the second amendment.
Opponents claim that it stomps all over the nuts of property owners, denying their rights to control what happens on their property. Also, statistics indicate, according to the article, that the workplace is one of the few locations where letting people carry guns legally increases the rate of homicide.
So, if you're licensed to carry a weapon, you can have it in your car at your workplace? What's wrong with that?
I'm sorry, but saying that will increase the likelihood of a shooting is complete BS. If someone wants to shoot someone, they're going to do it regardless of whether the law permits it. (I'm under the impression that 'shooting your coworkers' isn't in the bill of rights.)
It was de facto legal before. But Florida is known for it's wacky policies. It's kind of like having your TV repairman show up at your house with a pistol in his glove box. It's not necessarily something you want on your property.
