Michael Littlejohn wants to stick it to The Man. The Daily News has the story, “Up in arms over gun: Replica rifle has Brooklyn man at odds with cops“:
“… Michael Littlejohn is fighting for his right to bear arms. The Revolutionary War buff charges the Bloomberg administration with tyranny for trying to seize his handmade flintlock rifle – a dead ringer for the weapon once used against the redcoats. “This is the last legal gun that you can have without registration in New York,” Littlejohn said. “And yet Mayor Bloomberg is driven crazy by my flintlock gun – the one that won the American Revolution.” … Police claim it’s illegal for Littlejohn to keep the flintlock without a gun license … The social worker is … clinging to a little-known exemption in the city’s strict gun laws … The loophole allows license-free ownership of “antique firearms” – defined as rifles that require the bullet and gunpowder to be loaded separately …”
Wait a minute. I thought one of the gun ban credos is that the Second Amendment only applies to guns like this…now they’re saying that it doesn’t apply to them either?
I’m so confused.
I don’t know if Mayor Mike himself ever said that, but others have. In any event, the guy is correct, he doesn’t need a license.
Anything that makes King Bloomberg a little crazy is a wonderful thing. Let’s give him a ding dong, a coke classic, and a smile. This alone will cause him great grief.
