We're the Only Ones in the Front of the Bus Enough

The latest weapon to make its way into Toronto Police hands was a sawed-off rifle that a mother found in her son's dresser last week. It was through lawyers that she turned over the gun. Because of client confidentiality, her identity was kept a secret...

Police concerns focus mostly on the inherent dangers and about the potential poisoning of evidence, Pugash said.

"If you are in possession of a gun and you get on a Number 36 bus and go to Mr. Sapiano's office ... what is the risk to yourself and other people on the bus," Pugash said.

He suggested that lawyers are more than likely not firearms experts and should not be handling firearms in this way.

"Shall we wait for a tragedy to occur to see that this is not the way to do it," Pugash said.

I love it when statists turn on themselves.

Using lawyer/client privilege: What an ingenious way to dispose of murder weapons.

And what a plan: fight "gun crime" by protecting the criminals who abuse firearms, then, when they commit more violence, you call for more "gun control."

And then, of course, we have the position from "The Only Ones," that is, no one but them is qualified or professional enough to carry a gun in public without disaster ensuing.

  1. She either turned in a murder weapon because it was a great way to hide her involvement, or she was an honest citizen turning in a gun she didn't want. Either way, she was damned smart to take a lawyer with her. I wouldn't trust the cops either!
