Why David Gregory got off
« on: January 11, 2013, 07:25:21 PM »
For waving a 30 round magazine on Meet the Depressed .

Quote
Irvin Nathan, the attorney general for the District of Columbia, announced Friday that he will not press charges against NBC News’ David Gregory nor any employee of the broadcast network for violating the city’s gun laws. Violation of the city's firearms laws carry a maximum $1,000 fine and one year in jail.

Influencing our judgment in this case, among other things, is our recognition that the intent of the temporary possession and short display of the magazine was to promote the First Amendment purpose of informing an ongoing public debate about firearms policy in the United States,especially while this subject was foremost in the minds of the public following the previously mentioned events in Connecticut and the President's speech to the nation about them.

It's a good bet someone will be pressing the matter , "in an attempt to promote the First Amendment purpose of informing an ongoing public debate about firearms policy " and getting themselves arrested over this one . The 19th is good . It's march on your capital day .

While Gregory is a snake, the district attorney decided not to pursue a charge that would've made him/her look simply silly.

If nothing else, the whole situation about possession of 30-rd magazines makes D.C. look like the shithole decrepit swamp that it is.

That was the right call to make.

“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin
