More Assault Weapon Fun

I'll keep this short... I promise. Check this out and remember that this happened in Columbus, so you, Loyal Reader, know all about their "assault weapons."

Read the story here:

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- A man was arrested late Tuesday afternoon for allegedly shooting an assault rifle on a busy street.Warrants for attempted aggravated murder were issued on Tuesday for Emory Garner, NBC 4 reported.

Police said Garner shot into a car on Martha Avenue two months ago...

Response #1: I thought these suckers were banned?! Didn't anyone tell this criminal?! Why aren't the citizens of Columbus magically protected?!

Does this law have any effect? No. This asshole is looking at a shitload of prison time for attempted murder and an extra $500 fine or something for breaking the Assault Weapons Ban (although history shows that prosecutors rarely even mention it when they have something like attempted murder to hang their hats on).


Response #2: Do Columbus officials need to re-write the ban in bold font? Do we need to ban more guns?

Does this law have any effect? No. How about going after the real problem of the criminal rather than a tool and put this asshole away for a long, long time the first time since "Police said Garner shot into a car on Martha Avenue two months ago."
