A Beast of a Burden

Pennsylvania "authoritah" can't decide whether a crime of domestic violence occurred, and it has them in fits because they want to keep a man from owning a gun.

"State police spokesman Jack Lewis said the ruling places an increased burden on his agency when it wants to deny someone a gun because of a domestic violence conviction."

Oh, gee. Expecting the government to bear the burden of proof in a criminal case. What could we have been thinking?

Sorry, Jack. We'll get rid of that hurdle right away for you.
