Bloomberg lawsuits beginning to look like a fiasco
The New York Sun has the story. A second dealer has filed a counter-suit in his home state, a NY dealer they charged with criminal offenses had to be let off with disorderly conduct (in most states, about a minor a misdemeanor as they have), they seized guns from that dealer but had to return them, the city has settled with two on terms that have them audited by a special master (whom the city has to pay)... oh, and a third dealer now says he's going to sue.
Bloomberg is trying to make the best of it, saying that the plea to disorderly conduct (what you'd get for being a noisy drunk) sends a "strong message" about how vigorously he's enforcing gun laws.

Hey Dave...we're still schleping along in the Solicitor's Office. Frankly, the New Boss is just like the Old Boss. Still, the paychecks come every other week (well, at least the direct deposits).
