Perhaps most troubling and outrageous is the accusation that “the prosecutors fabricated a story that a firearm that Shipley once owned killed a Mexican army captain, and showed the jury photos of weapons and armament in Mexico that had no connection to this case whatsoever, [and] they improperly sought to inflame the jury with emotional appeal…” [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner follow-up uncovers more disturbing aspects of an already troubling case.

A Strategic Alliance

“Our goal is to leverage the ATFA’s knowledge base to ensure our clients receive the best advice possible. By harnessing this advice and sharing it with our client base, it should decrease actions taken by ATF against FFLGuard clients, thereby resolving matters to the benefit of all parties. Our clients will benefit immensely from this relationship, as it costs everyone a [heck] of a lot less to fix problems in advance rather than fight about them after the fact.” [More]

Ah, just the result the Monopolists wanted!  Just the result they'd like for you!

Still no law against cringing your ground over there yet?  Talk about a loophole...

If we are mark'd to die, we are enow
To do our country loss; and if to live,
The fewer men, the greater share of honour.

Or something like that...
