"In an incident that is being repeated all across the country far more frequently than is reported, a retired Navy veteran in Glendale, Arizona, has had his gun collection confiscated by authorities after an irate neighbor filed a harassment order."
"Rick Bailey ... has slowly accrued a collection of 28 firearms ... The collection was seized after a neighbor claimed Bailey threatened to shoot him, an accusation Bailey calls 'bullsh-t.'" ...
"A judge not only issued a protective order to the neighbor, but also issued a separate order to confiscate Bailey’s collection ..."
"The Second Amendment Foundation announced Tuesday it has taken on the funding of Bailey’s case and is working to get his firearms collection returned." ... |

| Sadly, an increasingly common event. An aggressive, resentful, domineering individual seizes upon "blind justice" to manipulate his "case" advantageously. How better to render helpless his victim than to abuse the legal system to accomplish it ? Erase "motive" and establish an "alibi" in one action. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
