What the hell possessed him to make that call, I'd like to know...

[Edgerunner]

A 10 gauge and a 22?
Sounds like we caught a real killer here.../sarc

"Enright's record shows that in 1983 he received a three-year deferred sentence. He claims he has since passed background checks to own the shotgun and the rifle that were seized by investigators on Wednesday. "

Dosen't the paperwork for a background check include some question like " Have you ever been convicted of a felony ? "

[Mr. K]

If he was not charged with anything then o9n what basis did they take his weapons?

[calex59]

This is just BS. They are using whatever they can to nail this guy to make themselves look good. Something is going on with fish and game departments. Remember the woman who shot a gator in Floria last week that was attacking her dog and was charged with hunting gators out of season?

I guess we are supposed to just let them eat us, it is good for the environment!

"...showing us where he says he stood in his own kitchen when he fired the single shot"

Unlawful Hunt Big Game 2nd Degree - in his kitchen? Explain how that's a hunt and not looking out for you and yours.

"Dude my place kicks ass, last weekend I had a big game hunt in my kitchen. But don't tell anyone, I realized it was out of season. This weekend I'm going to have a motorcross expo in the den."

For accuracy:

Officials Seize Weapons From Man Who Shot Unarmed Bear

[Firefigher NC]

"Enright was convicted of felony burglary 24 years ago when he was 17 years old. That is the basis for the "unlawful possession of a firearm" accusation."

That's bullcrap. If you're suitable to return to society then you should have your full rights restored to you. And he was stupid for calling the authorities.

[C210N]

It almost goes without saying:

shows the need to support our right to arm bears. Notice I said 'almost'.

[DTogo]

That wildlife biologist shot the bear a second time and killed it.

Was HIS "weapon" seized, too??

[freepatriot32]

correct me if im wrong but ithought juvey crimes dont count when it comes to owning firearms i thought only felonys from 18 on where used to disbar you from firearms ownership and juvey records were sealed?

[HuntsvilleTxVeteran]

A .22 and a .775, that 10 gauge or .775 could leave a hole.
He was right in calling because a wounded bear could be a bad problem.

[ZULU]

"Enright was convicted of felony burglary 24 years ago when he was 17 years old."

Why can people VOTE after serving time but can't get their SECOND AMENDMENT rights back??

24 years ago, whne he was 17 ????

Idiotic.

But then Seattle, as I understand it, joined Miami, New York City, Kalipornia, all of New Jersey and Massachusetts, as former United States territory.

[HairOfTheDog]

Fish and Wildlife Officers usually have more sense. This is an outrageous taking... and apparent consideration of charges for hunting would be outrageous. This comes on the heels of nightly reports of bears in the suburban North end for the last week.

[beltfed308]

and agents with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms served a search warrant Wednesday at Aaron Enright's home

Anyone notice these guys have a lot of time on their hands for a chickens*&t case like this?

[Wurlitzer]

I should be open season on Fish and Wildlife 365/year. 10+ years ago, they striped the ivory from all the keys of an antique piano which had been shipped from France (yuck) to the USA. I saw the pics of this piano and it was gorgeous before these government trash got their hands on it. The elephant had been dead over 75 years. What was the purpose of destroying the property of a US citizen.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

Seattle? Figures.

My aunt lives in AK and has a large bear (I don't know my bears) stuffed, full-height in her front foyer. She shot it protecting herself and her kids on a wild Blueberry picking expedition.

Very unjust. Hope this guy fights it without taking himself to the Poor House to do so.

[TC Rider]

Now if only he had shot a manbearpig...
