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."" |
