Martha Stewart GUILTY -- and Police Firearms

BREAKING NEWS -- Martha Stewart GUILTY...

...and when the news showed coverage of this "event" at the NYC Federal Courthouse, I noticed all the uniformed USMS (US Marshal Service) Police Officers appeared to be packing revolvers!

That's right, the good old wheel gun!



At least for me, in our current world of American police with M16s, AR15s, MP5s, and high-cap semi-autos, it's good to see that the trusty revolver still has an active role in modern law enforcement!

Heck, yeah.

"Rusty the Bailiff" on the People's Court always packed a wheelgun. That's enough proof for me.

Rusty was the Man.

But they should never have gone after MS. The whole thing was a groteque waste of taxpayer money. Yet another example of a prosecutor out of control. Some one needs to beat those people with a tire iron. They cut sweet-heart deals with Enron types, then go after Martha for acting on a hot tip even after their insider trading case dissolves.

We have not been benefitted by this case. And a lot of people are about to lose their jobs because of it. Well done.

My opinion of GW's administration just went down another notch. The jerk can rig a deal with Microsoft in short order, but doesn't have the brass ones to stop this nonsense.

In other news, it is now illegal to make a decision which might cause you to gain financially or save yourself from bankruptcy.

I'm no fan of Martha Stewart, but this whole thing has been nothing but a farce from the start.


Oh, and this is kinda OT. If you wanna discuss the sidearms carried by the coppers, the handgun forum is thattaway --->
