Denver suffers form a strange paranoia. They think any gun is illegal. They are a good place to avoid.
Boycott Dirty Denver
“In the middle of a leave for PCS, I went digging in my storage locker
and found an ORIGINAL AR-7 by Armalite. I remembered buying it,
I remember shipping it home... after I found it.
It had to have been in storage for 7+ years.
And I had a few bricks of ammo stored with it.”

HA!
That must have felt like Christmas morning!
No tellings what I will find when (if)
I finally get all my stuff back!
Yeah, it sounds like I need a warehouseman to inventory and keep track of my stuff..... but if you put a car up in 1986, and start restoring it in 2007, and find a pocket-knife on the floorboard under the seat..... Stuff just turns up.
And it was like Christmas. Almost every day is.

If not, there wasn't probable cause to allow a unwarranted search since the rifles were legally carried and in no violation.
I predict that after this guy spends a ton of money with his attorney, the charges will be dropped.
“PELOSI IS A WASTE OF SPERM, LET ALONE A BULLET!”
LOL, best line I have read all day.
I have been trying to find the relevant law, with no luck. I think that it may be a Denver law. Most states have a luggage, or “cased” exception to “concealed carry”, but I have not been able to find it yet for Denver. It is legal to have pistols in your car, loaded, for defense.
But, apparently, it may be illegal to have them unloaded in luggage outside the car!!!
In a strange twist of the law, I guess you are supposed to leave them in the car to be stolen, rather than lock them up in your hotel room??
LOL, a quick glance at the headlines and I thought it might be about Rielle.
In reading your referenced website I would say he’ll get off. He was transporting weapons to his hotel room which is permitted so long as they are not readily accessible. They’ll probably hold him until they get a refusal from the DA tomorrow. (my guess)
Joseph Calanchini is code for Dick Cheney.
If you are driving though Denver on your way to a hunting trip don't stop until you get to the other side of town.
They have some strange laws on the books.
The best I have that fits in with what you are talking about is about
10 years ago I was going through some stuff my mama said
“she didn’t want to have to keep up with anymore” and found my
(deceased) dad’s pocket knife that he carried with him
during WWII in the merchant marines.
Not pretty, not rare, not “worth” anything to anyone else,
but to me, it is priceless ...
I literally would not sell it for a million bucks.
**Joseph Calanchini from the Denver City Jail where hes being held on bond. **
Follow-up. Did he blow the bond?
Warthog Ping
(well its certainly more popular than Pelosi right now)
...but at least one is within 2 or 3 steps of me at all times!
This is a GREAT story because it remainds everyone that liberals don’t trust common Americans (with firearms).
“Amazing. An American citizen commits no crime, is abused by the Authorities, and then apologizes for it.”
I have a feeling that’s what we all will be doing soon.
I'm not lettin' my kids play over at your house.
Yes it is. It could destroy a whole lot of Obama’s “I don't want to take firearms from hunters” silly shtick.
“I’m not lettin’ my kids play over at your house.”

Thank you.
