"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. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
