It appears the conviction of Gabe Metcalf will be wiped off the books.
He may be able to sue for all the harm done to him, but it may not be possible as well.
Lawsuits are expensive. Metcalf and mother are poor as church mice.

The 9th circuit punted. Rather than set a precedent they dropped the charges. They didn’t want to turn it into a test case on the legality of gun free zones.

I hope they can find a way to sue.

I wonder how much money Mr. Metcalf spent on his defense?

Yeah, funny how all those gun-free school zones work.
They've prevented a lot of school shootings, right?
Lefties believe the signs alone will prevent gun violence at schools.
