Arizona Lawmakers Who'll Make Your Jaw Drop |
|
"This two-term Peoria
Republican came
rushing to the aid
of victimized gun
owners by proposing
to weaken Shannon’s
Law, which makes it
a felony to
negligently fire a
weapon inside city
limits. Rivero
apparently thinks we
have an epidemic of
gun owners who are
being branded as
felons after they
accidentally fire
their guns. “How
many miscarriages of
justice are
acceptable?" he
asked his colleagues
in January.
Unfortunately, he
couldn’t name even
one. That’s because
prosecutors don’t go
after people whose
guns accidently
discharge. They go
after the yahoos who
believe no
celebration is
complete until they
act like total
idiots and fire off
their guns into the
city skies, never
mind that what goes
up must, well, you
know. Fortunately,
Senate President
Steve Yarbrough,
R-Chandler, killed Rivero’s bill,
saying, “It’s
important to have
this law in place to
deter folks from
firing weapons in
these circumstances,
even accidentally."" |
