Some people are more equal than others apparently.
I wonder if he knows someone.
“Laws are for thee, not for me,” sayeth the liberals.
There are two ways to run a country: Rule Of Law, or Who You Know. Don’t think for a second that we remain in the former category.
A million people should march on D.C. with 30-round mags, if that law is not going to be enforced. One logistical difficulty could be they’re now impossible to find if you don’t already have one.
American Nomenklatura system; if your name is in the system, then it’s All Good. Laws are for little people.
You started an exchange..? Beggar thousands —it’s ok.
You headed up a hedge fund, then cleaned it out and bought a chateau..? No jail time.
Hell, your victims can’t even DEPOSE you...!
Rule by men, not by laws.
Some animals really are more equal than others.

Mr. Orwell, you called it.
I guess the law has absolutely no meaning in our nation now.
You’re a baseball player who maybe did growth hormone? You’ll spend 18 months on Capitol Hill under the kleig lights.
Ah, you burned down an Embassy? No questions, if you have a tummy ache.
You killed 300 Mexicans and 2 US cops..? No jail time for you AND you can keep your job.
Disappointing, but not surprising. There are many good Americans behind bars now for equally silly violations of gun laws. Apparently Gregory gets a pass because he’s on the “right” side of the issue.
When it comes to Washington DC, it’s not what you know that counts, it is who you blow that counts.
Laws don’t apply to the ruling-class elites, in this corrupt Age of Obama. Ask Jon Corzine.
But take someone who dares buck the professional political class and their socialist agenda, and watch their hides get nailed to the wall.
America 2013 for you. Evil has truly taken over.
A small metal box with a spring?
Come on people. It is not like it is a 100 watt incandescent light bulb or a 60 oz. Coke.

Just dang. I may be a bit slow, but just holding up a 30 round magazine in D.C. is a crime with a penalty up to a year in prison?

You have to keep up to date on these things. A good party member knows instinctively what to say and do. I have that on good authority from comrade Orwell.
I have a few...;-)
The problem is when we see the hypocracy of enforcement in D.C., what then???
We already know the outcome for one person, so what, if a few more, or even a million show up doing the same thing???
I would think if you are going to do this, bring the rifle that one fits into as well, if you are going to make a statement, might as well do so with the means to resist the hypocracy, if they choose to make an issue out of it...And if they choose to NOT engage you, be prepared to disengage yourself, and not be suckered into a fight on the way out...
To challenge the un-Constitutional agenda these folks have against this country and its citizery, you have to be willing to do something about it, and be prepared to sacrifice everything to achieve the goal setforth before you get there...
Just my opinion...
They have set a precedence. How can they justify prosecution of anyone else. Can see the defense lawyer asking the court: “how much and who do we pay to get the charges dropped like David Gregory?”.
