Moonbeam Brown was blaming the bullets for the crime in Oakland.
Hey,say what you will about Governor Moonbeam but he was first person of any note to get up into Billy Bob's face and call his wife a slimey crook during the '92 campaign.
Was it a .50cal round? There's a Brown campaign ad running that attacks Poochigian for not wanting to ban .50cal "assault" rifles in CA. Every time I see that ad I get this mental picture of a bunch of gangbangers trying to mug someone with a Barrett .50, or a drive by with a 48 inch barrel sticking out of the backseat window of an Impala thwacking the side mirrors of parked cars as it goes down the street.
