"Police said the charge is mainly based on the allegation that McManus did not put one of the guns in a case and it was within his reach during the traffic stop." And the Lord knows he could put an eye out with that thing.

did not put one of the guns in a case and it was within his reach during the traffic stop.But they're not guns, so these statutes don't apply.

The JBTs like their scary-looking but puny MP5 "girl-guns." They don't like the peons to enjoy owning cool-looking stuff, because that would take the "bad-ass" cool factor out of it.

I wonder what would have happened if he had been hauling one of these (it's a
custom-made rapid-fire BB gun, from
this website):
To: jjm2111
Police said the officer had no way to immediately determine if the gun was real or not. The "BLAZE ORANGE" stub on the end of the barrel didn't give him a clue?
Gieeze!!!

What are we paying multiple millions for the National Guard? They are being paid to be overseas or to be in training to be oversea. I suggest, if you see one in this country, offer to buy him or her lunch.

The worst part? The newspaper treats this as "Nothing unusual here" indifference.
Time to get out the REAL guns and take this country back!

The National Guard is oversees while millions continue to enter our country illegally, from Lord knows where? They ought to change their name to "Oversees Guard". Oh, I'm in no mood to buy anyone lunch. Feel free.

But they're not guns, so these statutes don't apply. That would depend on the definition of "guns" or even "firearms" in the statutes. Just as the expanded AWB bill defines a "pistol grip" as anything you can use to grip the gun, some state laws define BB and Pellet guns as "firearms" or "guns", even though there is no "fire" involved.
