Irony, thy name is Gregory.
I went into this on Facebook when it happened. I obviously never got around to putting it up here on the blog. Here's what I said on Facebook (though I'm more interested in what happens with CNN's dunderhead Lemon):
Looky! Our self-appointed social consciences can't obey the existing laws, but they're all for adding to them.
I would note in the case of Mr. Lemon, that unlike when he got his driver's license from the DMV, he underwent a background check via NICS when he bought that rifle... that's what the phone call the dealer made was for, and why it took 20 minutes. In the time he bought that rifle, he was checked, federal, state, and local.
Good thing he's paid his parking tickets... Of course, one does wonder if Colorado will go after him for violating their law. Of course, I may have to call BS on his version of the story, because if what he said is accurate, that dealer screwed up, too. Which makes me wonder if Mr. Lemon doesn't have a truthiness, or at least accuracy, problem.
Here is the link to the article regarding
Gregory's weltschmerz at The Patriot Perspective that prompted that bit of shadenfreude. Mind you, one wonders if the DC police don't have better things to do. I think a strongly worded lecture delivered to Mr. Gregory by the DC prosecutor after having him apprehended and perp-walked to the meeting in chains might be instructive. After all, many of his ilk feel that is minimally appropriate treatment for the likes of me and thee...
I wonder how Mr. Gregory might feel about now regarding the near wholesale abandonment of the legal concept of
mens rea in US jurisprudence?
