Licensed guard has gun confiscated.........again?

On two afternoons in a row last week, John Solomon, 24, was arrested while waiting for a bus at a North Philadelphia bus stop. Each time, the cops confiscated from him a legally owned gun and a separate license to carry a gun, while detaining him for hours before releasing him without charge.

Solomon was one of nine men in August 2009 whose legally owned guns were confiscated by police while they carried a permit or an Act 235*. He had just gotten back the gun the court ordered the police to return from that incident.

Looking at this story I have to wonder about all those here who vehemently deny that gun control is racist. At best, legally carrying a gun in Philly two days in a row, Mr. Solomon appears to be guilty of "contempt of cop." Given that it is Philly I guess he should consider himself lucky the SWAT team doesn't firebomb his house next.

*Reference to a license peculiar to Pennsylvania, commonly called an 'Act 235', issued by State Police to security-training officers.

are racist, if not the enforcement of them. Traffic laws, drug law and capital punishment to name a few more.

:shrug:

And I don't think you wanna wrassel soldier-lover-boy for the only seat in the house. He's kinda sweet on me.

But thanks for asking. It does a girl's ego some good.

;)

I missed you guys in this forum. Far more mannerful and less hostile than GD; which is kind of ironic considering how many people seem to purport guns contribute to violent personalities. I mentioned this to Lover Boy one night and he said, "an armed society is a polite society."

Makes sense I suppose.

So how's shakes?

If so... You are my hero?

It's buried in the Lounge somewhere.

Long story short, I was terrified.
