Pistol Packing Reporter Told to Take a Hike........

A reporter tries to get in the courthouse to cover a story -- unfortunately he forgot to leave his Saturday night special at home......

What kind of country are we living in when the Second Amendment doesn't protect a reporter's right to carry a gun into a courthouse?

 

How exactly was he found out? A metal detector maybe, or did he reach into his pocket for a pen and pull out a revolver instead ...

 

It could be but I did a search of dude's name and didn't come up with anything. Also, this is similiar to something that happened recently somewhere else and I think there was a thread about it at one point.

And Demo -- You see, you are finally starting to see the light!!! ;D

 

You know, your friend squealed liked a stuck Irish pig when I shot him.

Did it sound like that?

 

Once, just once, I want someone to actually be told to take a hike. Literally.

Security guard: "Sir, we can not allow you into the courtroom with that weapon."

Reporter: "But, why not?"

SC: "Because we have rules. Now take a hike."

R: "Where?"

SC: "Oh, right up in the mountains. They're about three miles northwest of here and you'll get a great view of the trial from there."

R: "Thanks a bunch!"

 

"A man becomes preeminent, he's expected to have enthusiasms.
Enthusiams... What are mine?
What draws my admiration?
What is that which gives me joy?
Baseball!"

 

More cowards walking around with guns...

 

Where's Nitti?

He's in the car.

 

I thought this was going to be another Mark Madden thread.

 

Clearly a D_B, but this post is about the guy getting fired. The first was an article from the Post-Gazette about the incident itself.
