Guilty of What?

North Shore prosecutors' efforts to crack down on individuals, especially gang members, who use illegal firearms coincides with the opening of two Boston gun court sessions..."Introducing a gun as evidence goes a long way to getting a defendant to plead guilty," Suffolk District Attorney's spokesman David Procopio said.

Note the lead paragraph said "individuals, especially gang members..."

That means not just hardened criminals could be caught in the "gun court" trap.

So we ought to be asking ourselves "Guilty of what?"

A crime of violence?

Or possession of something we're supposed to have the unifringed right to keep and bear?
