In U.S. v. James, the Fourth Circuit in an opinion by Judge Gregory joined by Judges Neimeyer and Shedd concluded that the defendant's conviction under South Carolina state law for "failure to stop for a blue light, S.C. Code Ann. § 56-5-750" was properly considered a "violent felony" for purposes of the armed career criminal enhancement under federal sentencing law.
Apparently, failure to stop for a blue light does not involve an inadequate response to an in-store sales promotion at K-Mart.
