>>>Attack at a Colorado Gun Show
>>>
>>>by Bill Deitrick, Legislative Director
>>>Colorado State Shooting Association http://www.cssa.org/
>>>
>>> Thought you all might get a kick out of this. I didn't attend
>>>the gun show in Denver, as I was holding a grassroots meeting in Fort
>>>Collins. However, our guys filled me in.
>>>
>>> Late on Sunday afternoon, (April 2, 2000) a 39-year-old attendee
>>>at the gun show, an Oriental-type man, (who later was identified to be a
>>>member of PETA) went to Dave's Guns tables. Dave is the biggest gun
>>>store and biggest exhibitor in the area.
>>>
>>> He started screaming "F--- Dave's Guns! Guns kill!" and started
>>>turning tables over, spilling the guns onto the floor. One of Dave's
>>>employees, a small, but extremely feisty type, came over the table and
>>>tackled the guy, then started beating the snot out of him on the floor.
>>>A couple of other attendees began to help stomp the guy.
>>>
>>> Meantime, the Aurora cops, hearing the ruckus, came running, and
>>>extricated the dude from the tender mercies of the gunnies. They cuffed
>>>him, arrested him, and started escorting him out of the building. The
>>>dude went berserk, kicking at the cops, and trying to kick over other
>>>tables.
>>>
>>> The cops laid him out again, and hog-tied him end to end, then took him
>>>to the hoosegow.
>>>
>>> The guy is now charged with destruction of private property, inciting
>>>to riot, public nuisance, and assault on a police officer. Methinks he
>>>will spend substantial time in the can.
>>>
>>> On top of all that, Dave had about $5,000 worth of pistols which are
>>>now nicked and dinged, and can't be sold at retail as new guns, so the
>>>guy will probably be entrained by the court to make restitution. Then
>>>he'll have $5,000 worth of guns he can saw up, if he pleases!
>>>
>>>Ain't life fun?

>>>======================================================================
>>>PUBLIC NOTICE: henceforward, I shall be calling the artridge formerly
>>>known as ".40 S&W" by a new name -- ".40 Liberty" -- to disassociate
>>>one of the greatest implements of self-defense ever conceived from the
>>>cowardly corporation doing its best to eradicate the very _concept_ of
>>>self-defense, and to remind everybody to boycott that corporation and
>>>interdict its sales to all government agencies. -- L. Neil Smith
