Art Acevedo On the Miami Shooting
BY Herschel Smith

Per Fox News, Miami Police Chief Art Acevedo called on members of Congress “to come out of their own corners the left and the right and come to the middle where most Americans are.”
“We need to have universal background checks, we need to make burglarizing these licensed gun stores a federal crime with mandatory sentencing, and we need the federal government and both sides to address this issue because without legislation,” Acevedo said. “Without certainty as it relates to holding these criminals accountable, we’re never going to get through this summer with much more death and destruction.”
Art Acevedo was police chief in Austin, Texas, and then in Houston, Texas. He doesn’t appear to stay in one place for very long.
In Austin he and the Austin PD approved of a period of forcible blood draws at random traffic stops by federal employees. Ask me how I know.
In Houston, he ran riot for gun control, as he always does everywhere he goes, when crimes were committed by none other than the Houston Police by lying on warrants, ending in the killing of innocent victims.
Professional citizen disarmament lobbyists, while mentioning Miami and blaming guns, are being surprisingly non-hysterical about this so far on social media. I’ll go out on a limb here, even though suspects in both Miami “mass shooting” incidents have not been identified: They will not fit the prevailing narrative. If nothing else, those who demand to disarm their countrymen know when to exploit a meme and when their talking points to conflate and smear Constitutionalists as racists can be easily refuted.
It was a shooting at a hip hop club. Nothing more. No, it wasn’t an act of domestic terrorism. It was the Miami criminal element being criminals.
But Art is seen walking arm in arm with other disarmament activists who desire nothing more than to inflict guilt for this and other events on peaceable men who had nothing to do with it.
Art Acevedo is the worst police chief in America.

I though murder was already against the law – even in Miami.

Steve Sailer has a theory that when a mass shooting has a high number of wounded compared to dead and the shooter escapes, the shooter will be black.
A high number of dead compared to wounded and the shooter committing suicide/killed by bystanders or cops/arrested then the shooter will be White/Asian.
Blacks seem to fire off a few mags in the general direction of the person/group who dissed them. So their victims are killed more by bad luck than anything else.
The Whites and Asians have probably been planning their crime for weeks, months, or years and want to make sure their targets are dead.
Yes, there are exceptions to these scenarios.

Not just that but shortly after the latest black on black mass shooting, the cops rounded up some loony White guy who was *thinking about* committing a mass shooting at a Wal-Mart. That story is getting more coverage now than the actual shooting in Miami. I am sure that is just a coincidence.
@Chris, watch the video, they were in and out of the car in Miami in about ten seconds. It is a miracle they hit anything at all but it explains how three gunmen (maybe one was a woman) can shoot into a crowd and only kill two people.

Shall.
Not.
Be.
Infringed.
Art can say whatever he wants. Its all unconstitutional. Null and void.

“Art Acevedo is the worst police chief in America.”
And that’s saying something.
“…[W]e need to make burglarizing these licensed gun stores a federal crime…” It is. They didn’t fill out and file a 4473. No, I don’t think that should be a crime, but that’s what the law says.

Acevedo was born in Havana, Cuba, in 1964,[1] immigrating to the United States at age four with his family in 1968. His father was a police officer in Havana.[2] Acevedo grew up in El Monte, California,[1] becoming a naturalized citizen in 1985.[3] He attended Rio Hondo College, graduating in 1986 with an associate degree in communications.[4] In 2005, Acevedo graduated from University of La Verne with a bachelor’s in public administration.[4]
Career
Acevedo began his career as a field patrol officer in East Los Angeles with the California Highway Patrol in 1986 after graduation from their training academy.[3] He rose to the rank of chief with CHP in 2005.[5]
In 2008, Acevedo received a settlement of almost $1 million from the California Highway Patrol, in connection to a harassment lawsuit. The suit alleged that he was retaliated against by CHP commissioner Dwight “Spike” Helmick after applying for the position of CHP chief.[6] According to Acevedo’s attorney, Helmick improperly shared information from a confidential investigation into sexual harassment claims against Acevedo. During the 2004 sexual harassment investigation, multiple officers stated that Acevedo, while on duty, showed them nude photographs of a fellow officer with whom he allegedly had an affair. Acevedo denied showing the pictures.[7]
