We're the Only ones "There Once Was a Man from Nantucket" Enough

Bretschneider, who was reelected in a landslide in 2004, has encoun­tered numerous problems over the past six years, including a $15,000 fine from the state Office of Campaign and Political Finance for failing to disclose expenditures in a timely man­ner, using public employees in fundraising and receiving politi­cal contribution in a government building. Bretschneider was also fined by the state Ethics Com­mission for misusing his author­ity while pursuing the purchase of a Cape Verdean family's home on Cherry Street; he was arrest­ed by Nantucket police for vio­lating a restraining order filed against him by his ex-wife; pur­chased assault weapons that he was not trained or authorized to use; and continually squabbled with town and county officials over his budget.

Another "lawman" breaking the law.

If he was an "Only One" at the time of the restraining order, does that mean it did not "legally" disqualify him from firearms for the duration, as it would you or me?

I also like the way squabbling with officials is considered an offense worthy of being on the list with the rest.

  1. Does that state regulate pistol grips and shoulder things that go up, or are we talking about actual select-fire assault weapons?
