Actually, it's not new at all, but it will most certainly get worse.
LaPierre should have been aware that the clip was being illegally handled by Gregory and called him on the spot. If Gregory didn’t know, he should have known, or get out of the debate.
And people wonder why so many CITIZENS have nothing less than a mortal distrust for the Police, as well as Government at all Levels. The Moral Bankruptcy of America is on Display.
The DC cops would have no jurisdiction. The media would howl about it, and want the mailers prosecuted. The counterpoint to their anger would be - we'll accept your concerns as serious when you ask that the monkey man be prosecuted. Otherwise, we're just supporting Mr. Gregory's journalistic efforts.
These @$$holes need to be forced to live by the laws they want to put on us, no exceptions.
