Bunch of loonies in the world.

As the child rapist of this country roam free.

WTF is the deal with Colorado over the last 5 years?

Friggin IDIOTS run that state

[Red Badger]

But Jefferson County District Judge Brian Boatright said that that permission had limits.

Apparently this judge has no limits..........

[Still Thinking]

If what he did isn't against the law as it stood when he committed the act, it wasn't against the law. You can't legally convict him anyway just because you can foresee some negative consequence to his actions.

"We have pictures that raise images of the Columbine massacre. But if we set the specter of Columbine aside," he said, the boy should be acquitted and sent home.

Let me make this as clear as I can for you, your honor.

Kids with guns shooting other kids = Columbine.

Kids with guns NOT shooting other kids != Columbine.

Clear enough?

[LambSlave]

Is it just me or has the nation gone completely irretrievably insane? I wish this whole trend to totalitarianism would resolve to the inevitable conclusion and we could be free men again for a little while...

[Shanda]

This is one of the most outrageous acts I have ever read about. The prosecutor, the judge and the jury need to be put in prison for life.

[Larry Lucido]

The kid should be acquitted, and then the parents should smack him for telling the whole world what kind of weapons they have.

[Just another Joe]

The 16-year-old boy, who has been held in detention since his arrest in February, will be sentenced June 1

Since FEB?
For PHOTOGRAPHS??

He assured the judge that no weapons will be in the house again. "The hobby is gone. The guns are gone and won't be back," Weisz said.

Hey, DAD, how about punishing the youngster, not yourself.

[Toby06]

How can this be? The kid had a pic taken with his dads guns?

Damn, when i was 10, i used to ride off into the woods on my motorcycle with my .22 slung over my shoulder, fishing pole ascross the handlebars and a 2.5 gallon jug of gas strapped on. Cops never once gave me a hard time.

I wonder what my jail sentence would have been if I were 10 and did this now.

[Junior_G]

Is it just me, or have our freedoms been eroding at an accelerated rate recently? This judge's ruling is disgusting.

[SWAMPSNIPER]

A couple of dozen times last summer, my 13 year old grandson came busting through my door, yelling, "I need the Colt with the shot loads, there's a big moccasin in the yard". Am I supposed to drag my old butt out, when there is a young man around to handle the problem?

[absolootezer0]

very infuriating story, judge doesn't know the law.
saddest part of the story is the last line.. He assured the judge that no weapons will be in the house again. "The hobby is gone. The guns are gone and won't be back,"
because LEOs didn't know the law, this man has given up his weapons.

It looks like Colorado has joined Kalipornia, New Joisey, New Yawk, Taxachusetts, Illannoyed, and Floriduh in the idiot competition.

[Sax]

You can't tell from a photo if its loaded, empty, or has snap caps in it - so what if his finger was on the trigger - this judge is inferring way too much. Yes, the Angel of Death thing is very tasteless and insensitive, but not illegal. This judge is over stepping his bounds by a wide margin.

Colorado law prohibits possession of a handgun by a juvenile but permits parents to give them permission to possess guns in their homes - even without supervision.

Except when Colorado doesn't feel like allowing what the law allows.

[Rakkasan1]

should have had the Department of Homeland Security in on
this big, series bust.


I guess pedophiles AND hoplophobes cruise Myspace now.

An Evergreen High School student who posted Internet photos of himself posing with guns was convicted Tuesday on a charge of possession of a handgun by a juvenile. The conviction came despite his parents' testimony that they gave him permission to handle guns in their home without their supervision.

Colorado law prohibits possession of a handgun by a juvenile but permits parents to give them permission to possess guns in their homes - even without supervision.

The jury just convicted this kid of not breaking the law. The law doesnt say you can have parental permission to have a gun unsupervised as long as your finger isnt on the trigger.This judge needs to be impeached the prosacuter and jury need to go to prison
