Cops confiscate firearms in Lakewood ...Ohio

[TFOGGER]

One of those two statements is inaccurate.

I'd say this whole thing falls into the "Looocy...you got some splainin' to do" category.

My guess is that the Thompson is a totally legal semiauto, and the reporter is either sensationalizing it, or a complete ignoramus, or both.

kidicarus why do you hate the police?

Is my sarcasm meter broken, or do you think he actually does?

[Ronin13]

Yeah...makes you feel all warm and fuzzy, don't it?

If by warm and fuzzy you mean pissed of and heated... yes, yes it does.

I hate to jump the gun (no pun intended) too soon, but something doesn't sound right with that either.

I am really hoping there is a court order so the police didn't act out of line, the courts did...furthermore I am really hoping that the person that her guns taken away is completely legal in every aspect. First so she can take legal action against the state and possibly go to the Supreme Court (eventually) and second I hope she is completely legal because of all the bad press gun owners always get...you know she will always be the crazy gun lady in her neighborhood now, no matter how right she is.

But seriously, this has got to stop. I would probably get fired for not carrying out what I believe is an illegal order (And by the way I don't have the full facts of why they were confiscated since I just read the article)

Turns out the guns are semi-autos according to some follow-up I've been doing on this.

There are some interesting court documents to be found re: this incident:

Also, the story is alive and well on gun blogs and other places. PD screwed the pooch, I think.

Well, I am glad to see she isn't taking their crap. Those guns all look good to me. Looks like a chief will soon be looking for a new job and the City of Lakewood will have to budget a payout to Francesca.

See, based on the guns that all appear to be legal and the fact that she isn't charged with anything other than some kind of suspicious activity, I don't think I could carry this out, I would get fired. I would rather get fired for not violating someone's Constitutional Rights than get fired for it. I think it would be a harder recovery if it was the other way around.

2nd Amendment violation. Federal Court would hand her a $100,000...

13 guns? Really? She's the least of the Govt worries.

That's all she gets? I figured she would be set for life...looks like she will just have a really good savings account or start to her retirement fund.
