Anti Gun Mayor Going to Prison for Firing Gun During Failed Attempt to Seduce / Intoxicate Underage Male

Only 20 months seems light for a guy who has probably pushed for very harsh sentences for those convicted of non-violent (possession) weapons crimes.
 

Via the Inquisitr (last April): "A member of the Michael Bloomberg-sponsored gun control organization "Mayors Against Illegal Guns" has been arrested and charged in connection with a handgun incident at his home. James Schiliro, a.k.a. Jay Schiliro, the mayor of Marcus Hook, a small town in Delaware County, Pennsylvania, faces charges of official oppression, reckless endangerment, unlawful restraint, false imprisonment, and furnishing a minor with alcohol. He surrendered to authorities on Thursday morning, and his attorney declared that "we intend to fight these charges." Schiliro, 38, allegedly ordered a local police officer to bring a 20-year-old male friend to his home, where the mayor plied him with alcohol, and made sexual advances which the man refused. Schiliro allegedly brandished several handguns and fired one of them into the floor in an apparent attempt to intimidate the young man, who reportedly was in fear of his life. The mayor was freed on $50,000 bail and told to stay away from the alleged victim and give up his stash of firearms."

Shooting at a Charging Boar? (Can you tell what gun he fires?)

What gun did this guy use in this amazing video of a wild boar charging him (and getting him good!) before he can get some shots off? The shaky video makes it tough to ID the gun. Can anyone tell by looking down the barrel whether this is a Savage Over Under Combo?








The second video might have a higher resolution:

Original Story (in Russian) here: http://izvestia.ru/news/563827

















"The pain in my soul is unbearable. I keep asking myself the same unsolvable question: If my assault rifle took people's lives, it means that I, Mikhail Kalashnikov, son of a farmer and Orthodox Christian, am responsible for people's deaths"

"Stand Your Ground?" - Florida's "10-20-LIFE" Laws and Greg Evers Proposed SB-448

Florida's "stand your ground" laws have received massive national attention recently leaving some armchair pundits with the feeling that Florida is easy on gun crime.

Most folks don't know of Florida's "10-20-LIFE" law that requires a minimum sentence of 10 years if a firearm is used or displayed during a crime, 20 years if the gun is fired, and a 20 years to life sentence if someone is injured in the shooting...

Although the NRA supported this law in 1998 when it was passed, concern over potential abuse, the ability to apply the law to those who use a firearm in self-defense, Marion Hammer has been quoted as saying, "We never would have supported a bill that would allow prosecutors to prosecute someone acting in self-defense."

Buying Guns on Reddit (aka "Internet") and Internet Response

Gun Industry 'Morals Over Money' - Interview with Tommy Alexander and Mike Davis of Desert Tech


Quote from Desert Tech founder Nick Young, “I started this company to protect Americans ~ not endanger them... ~ In consulting with other arms companies the general responses I got was, if they don’t buy it from you, then they will get it somewhere else, or money is money. After much internal review we elected not to sell to Pakistan.”
