Men Held In Deputy Shootings Near Disney Arrested 80 Times

ORLANDO, Fla. -- Three men suspected of shooting and injuring two Orange County sheriff's deputies at a resort near Walt Disney World Wednesday have extensive criminal records with more than 80 arrests between the three, Local 6 News has learned.

Investigators said Deputy Curtis Barnes, 42, and Deputy John Siller, 40, were shot at the Caribe Royal Resort, located at 8101 World Center Drive, when they confronted three men apparently trying to break into a car.

Barnes was shot in the right arm and Siller was shot in the chest, which was protected by a bulletproof vest, police said.
...

Deforest reported that records show that Clark has been arrested 46 times, Simmons 25 times and Rivera has been arrested 11 times.

3. Once again, guns prove to be criminals favorite weapon
and even though police have guns, it's no guarantee they won't be shot.

America is crying for less easy access to guns.

7. After getting caught 80 times
you thing a gun law is going to stop these shitbags from using a weapon. Why these guys were not in prison for life a while back is the real question.

10. The European experience is that less easy access to guns lessens gun crime
Less gun crime=less murder.

13. Yep, but not every time, but what if it's only 10% of the time?
So you're saying it's A-OK to throw a few thousands to the wolves? It is a problem that all laws aren't enforced and I contend that part of the reason is a heavily armed population is a big part of the reason. Do you want to volunteer to be policeman for 30k a year against AK-47 look-a-likes?

6. Now don't go getting technical on us.
I think you can get a fine for up to 50 cases of aggravated ignorance.

8. All the gun laws in the world wouldn't have prevented this
From their arrest record, it's evident that they don't obey the laws. They're going to jail now. Most likely for life.

14. The one that keeps dropping like a rock against the Euro?
Maybe you need to change currency or switch to the same winning system.

16. The outcome of the US system produces these personnel
Al Gore was the best candidate in decades but Charlton Heston and the gun crowd wanted to lynch him. War hero John Kerry was ridiculed by the gun nuts but canned hunt champion Dick Cheney was celebrated as the right kind of guy. Even John Edwards stricken wife was attacked by the gun crowd because she has a belligerent gun wielding RepuKKKe neighbor she detests.
