No Guns founder pleads not guilty to gun charges
From Times Staff and Wire Reports
June 22, 2007
The founder of an antiviolence group called No Guns pleaded not guilty Thursday to federal weapons charges.
Hector "Big Weasel" Marroquin is accused of selling an assault rifle, a machine gun, two pistols and two silencers to undercover federal agents last fall. He could face up to 50 years in prison if convicted.
Marroquin, 51, of Downey, is a onetime member of the 18th Street gang who founded No Guns in 1996. No Guns received $1.5 million from the city as a subcontractor on anti-gang efforts, but its contract was canceled last year.
Marroquin is charged with three counts of manufacture, distribution and transport for sale of an unlawful assault weapon, along with one count each of machine gun conversion and possession of a silencer. He remains free on $260,000 bail.

OK, so call me cynical, but I’m thinking I might see the problem here...”
By my reckoning, he has put up bail with the $$$ the city paid him.
When he jumps bail, the city will be getting less than 20% of it’s money back. The guy skates with 80%.
Yup- They are just coming here for a better life...and this guy did a great job of fooling alot of people.

awesome links, thx
of COURSE the anti-gunners want to have THEIR guns, or at least, let their lapdog cops and bodyguards have some. Anyone who has no gun is very foolish, plain and simple. The lesson of history is that if you can’t fight effectively, you will be luck if someone does not soon enslave or kill you.

What’s the distinction between a machine gun and a submachine gun?
