Judge Sam Salamey made a horrible statement while sentencing a teenage hero who stopped a mall shooting in Dearborn, Michigan. Credit: FOX 2 Detroit screenshotA Michigan judge earlier this month proved he has no business remaining on the bench after making one of the more constitutionally illiterate and perilous remarks in recent memory.As FOX 2 Detroit reported, a 19-year-old man named Martinez Long was at Fairlane Town Center in Dearborn back on July 3 when a fight escalated. One of the individuals involved then opened fire inside the mall.The shooter, later identified as Cameron Watkins, killed Keonte Seaborn following the fight. He proceeded to shoot another individual and continued firing his gun recklessly in the mall before Long acted.But thankfully, Long was carrying his firearm and put an end to the mayhem by fatally shooting Watkins.But there was a ‘problem’: Long did not have a concealed carry permit to carry his firearm. In Michigan, residents are not allowed to have a concealed carry permit until they turn 21.Thus, this gave Dearborn authorities an excuse to prosecute Long.On September 8, Long learned his fate. The judge presiding over his case, Sam Salamey, sentenced him to two years’ probation for not having a permit.As he sentenced the young man, Salamey asked him this stunning question: “What do you need a gun for protection in a mall, in the first place?”“Fortunately, you weren’t injured, but nonetheless, you had a gun there in the first place, which was poor judgment,” Salamey said to Long. “And what do you need a gun for protection in a mall, in the first place?”“Nonetheless, I think this agreement is in the best interest of justice.”WATCH:Why did Long need the gun? Because he is not only an adult American citizen with 2nd Amendment rights (despite Michigan’s stupid law), but several more innocent lives would have perished had he not been carrying.But if Salamey had his way, dozens of people would be dead.Also, there is a long list of mass shootings that have occurred at shopping malls and retail centers over the past two decades in America.Here are some examples:• Allen Premium Outlets (Allen, Texas – May 6, 2023)• Greenwood Park Mall (Greenwood, Indiana – July 17, 2022)• Cielo Vista Mall / Walmart (El Paso, Texas – August 3, 2019)• Westroads Mall (Omaha, Nebraska – December 5, 2007)• Trolley Square (Salt Lake City, Utah – February 12, 2007• Tacoma Mall (Tacoma, Washington – November 20, 2005):It’s a safe bet that the families’ victims in these attacks wish a hero like Long had been present.As the old saying goes, the only way to stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun.The post Judge Makes an Unbelievably Stupid and Dangerous Remark as He Sentences Hero Who Stopped a Mass Shooting in Michigan (VIDEO) appeared first on The Gateway Pundit.
