Mayor Against Illegal Guns pleads guilty to illegal gun carry

Posted by David Hardy · 22 November 2006 09:34 AM

Perhaps the ultimate case of "rights for me but not for thee..."

Mayor Frank Melton, of Jackson MI, is a member of Bloomberg's mayors group, and just plead guilty to illegally carrying a handgun onto school, and church, property.

The story also notes that he really, really, really, likes to carry. As in he's tried to pack on airplanes and in the US Capitol. Not that I'd complain ... but that's a little hard to reconcile with being a charter member of an antigun organization!

Hat tip to Dan Gifford.

And since he's totally opposed to the serfs carrying or possessing guns without the express permission of their masters, there's absolutely no chance that the feds would ever show the slightest interest in prosecuting under Gun Free School Zones.

Of course since hizzoner is firmly opposed to serfs carrying or possessing any firearms without the expressed written permission of their masters (and the payment of whatever tribute the master deems adequate), the feds will never show the slightest interest in prosecuting under Gun Free School Zones, even though "it's for the children". Why am I not surprised?
