No Guns founder pleads not guilty to gun charges
From Times Staff and Wire Reports
June 22, 2007
The founder of an antiviolence group called No Guns pleaded not guilty Thursday to federal weapons charges.
Hector "Big Weasel" Marroquin is accused of selling an assault rifle, a machine gun, two pistols and two silencers to undercover federal agents last fall. He could face up to 50 years in prison if convicted.
Marroquin, 51, of Downey, is a onetime member of the 18th Street gang who founded No Guns in 1996. No Guns received $1.5 million from the city as a subcontractor on anti-gang efforts, but its contract was canceled last year.
Marroquin is charged with three counts of manufacture, distribution and transport for sale of an unlawful assault weapon, along with one count each of machine gun conversion and possession of a silencer. He remains free on $260,000 bail.

Whoo, hoo! The "Big Weasel" wasn't just bending the rules! Asault rifle? Machine gun? Silencers? These aren't the kind of collectibles one associates with an antiviolence org named "No Guns."
Maybe "No Guns" just means no guns for you and me but lots of guns for the "Big Weasel."
Prediction...the "Big Weasel" will get an even bigger weasel for an attorney who will try to convince the court that the "Big Weasel" was merely engaged in a gun safety "buyback" program with the Federal government.
Apt description for the gun grabbers in Congress and Sacramento...

Trying to create a monopoly for himself eh?

Actually thats a submachine gun
OK, so call me cynical, but I'm thinking I might see the problem here...
Nice MP5
Beautiful AK 74 underfolder
He said you can have my guns when you pry them from my weaselly little hands
But under the Unconstitutional National Firearms Act, and other equally unconstitutional legislation and regulations, it's a machine gun.
There are to many weiney rules! L0L
At least this “kid” is only six - not sure what the adult Liberals use as an excuse for their twisted logic. BTW - I’ve never seen a six year old with that good of handwriting or artistic skills - much less a boy! (I wonder if ol’ weasel collected the prize money for the poster contest as well?)
((drooling over pics of weaponry))
But Chuckie, in your representation of the world, the “good people” are DEAD! Is that what you think should happen? Chuckie? Chuckie? Are you there?
The question is whether that 1.5 mil of city money footed the $26k bond for his $260,000 bail...?
Betcha so.
PS: boy that Uzi shoor iz pritty...!
No Guns? Call us, ask for Hector.
Check this out...
You need to credit those pictures.
NRA couldn’t have said it better. LOL.
I should have pinged you also...
Ny faith in humanity is shattered. I mean, if you can’t trust some called “Big Weasel”, who can you trust?

Thank you and check out my profile page. My favorite model and revolver are there. It’s another good one by Oleg Volk.
..... and his opinion of the ATF has soared!
I wonder what he thinks about the 2nd these days?
Let’s be careful and not direct-link to too many of these photos, though! That costs them bandwidth in the long run, and it’s too great a site to see shut down!

By my reckoning, he has put up bail with the $$$ the city paid him.
When he jumps bail, the city will be getting less than 20% of it’s money back. The guy skates with 80%.
Yup- They are just coming here for a better life...and this guy did a great job of fooling alot of people.
